Welcome back to the Anxiety Slayer Podcast. I'm Shan Banderleke here with my wonderful friend and co-host and Nanga Severe.

We come together weekly from Kent and Lelandaw to share anxiety slayer sessions with you and

answer listener questions from our inbox and Facebook page.

Together we share a powerful collection of techniques to reduce anxiety.

And before we get started today, we'd like to thank Cindy, Mandy, and Amy for supporting our work at

Patreon. If you're interested in becoming a patron, you can learn more and get

24 patron only downloads at anxiety Slayer.com forward slash Patreon.

We've received several questions

in our private Facebook group about anxiety getting worse at night and

spoiling a good night's rest.

Today we're sharing our favorite tips for calming anxious thoughts and physical anxiety symptoms and settling in for a good night's sleep.

Hey Ananga, how are you?

Hi Shen, I'm good, thank you.

It's so good to be with you again and to be talking about something that so many of our

listeners suffer with and I'm glad that we're bringing this forward again.

You know, we have to circle back around to these topics because it seems like questions that come up are quite

cyclical and and right now sleep is a is a big one that's coming forward so

let's dive right in and and I think maybe start with

I hear Veda and timing because I know that's a big part of getting a good night's sleep.

Yeah, we often talk about I of Airevedo, Iravader be in India's ancient science of life, And of course sleep is one of the pillars for good health and emotional well-being.

And with anxiety it can set up a vicious cycle when our sleep is affected.

Anxiety affects our sleep and sleep increases our anxiety is so really important to do all we can to help ourselves get better quality rest.
