Our natural sleep-wake cycle follows Yin and Yang principles – being awake mirrors the Yang energy - the outward, bright, excitatory time, and sleep follows the Yin, inhibitory, dark and quiet time. So as the Yang of the day slowly folds into the Yin of the evening, so do you.
Allowing yourself to drop into the Yin energy of the day can not only create the space to ground and calm down for a restful sleep, but also cultivate Shen. Essentially nourishing our Shen Essence allows us to more easily flow through life; we feel a sense of ease during the day and find it easy to sleep deeply and well at night - an overall harmony.
