In the stillness of winter, rest becomes medicine.

A 6-Week Integrative Journey for Insomnia, Restless Nights & Deep Renewal

with Lance Isakov, M.Ac., L.Ac.
Fridays, January 9 - February 13, 2026
10:00 - 11:30 am ET via Zoom
(Recordings available)

Do you find yourself tired but unable to fall asleep?

Or waking in the middle of the night, mind racing, wishing you could just fall back asleep?

You’re not alone. So many of us live in a world that runs on overdrive - we’ve forgotten how to truly rest.
During the quiet season of winter, this live 6-week online course invites you to reconnect with your body’s natural rhythm of sleep through a gentle blend of modern science, mindfulness, and Five Element Taoist wisdom.

You’ll learn how stress, hormones, emotions, and daily rhythms affect your sleep - and how to restore balance through nervous system regulation, evening rituals, and restorative self-care practices.

🌿 Each Session Includes

  • A short teaching on the week’s theme

  • Guided practices such as breathwork, meditation, acupressure, or journaling

  • Group reflection and Q&A

  • Optional home practices to deepen your rest between sessions

⏳ Why 6 Weeks?

According to sleep research, six weeks is often enough time for your body and mind to begin building new sleep rhythms.
It takes about 40 days to create lasting changes in the nervous system, hormone regulation, and bedtime habits — just long enough to truly reset your relationship with rest.

In other words, this isn’t a quick fix - it’s a supported journey toward deep, sustainable sleep. 🌙

🌕 Course Themes

Week 1: Remembering How to Rest - understanding the sleep cycle and the art of surrender
Week 2: Calming the Mind - regulating the nervous system and easing "wired and tired" energy

Week 4: Light & Darkness - evening rituals, and creating your sleep sanctuary
