No wonder you are requiring more sleep. The ammount of energy this expience requires is astounding. To just get through the day and then get up and do it all over again, to be present for your kids...all the while your mind is battling and stress "fight and flight" hormones are surging through your body...

Once your self is able to grab a patch of restorative sleep it wants to hang on, for dear life.

let it.
