The pandemic has interrupted many aspects of our lives, but sleep seems to be one of the worst affected areas. From tier restrictions to post-lockdown roadmaps, we have been through a whole year of stressful news cycles that has inevitably influenced our ability to calm our busy minds.

Prioritising rest and self-care has never been more vital, which is why we’re hosting The Stylist Restival on World Sleep Day (Friday 19 March 2021) – and we’d love for you to join us.

The Stylist Restival 2021: the sessions

• 7.30-8pm: How to sleep better when you leave lockdown with Stephanie Romiszewski

  After a year of limited social interaction and dramatic changes to our daily routines, it’s no surprise many of us are suffering from lockdown anxiety which has disrupted our sleep cycles and the quality of rest we’re getting. Poor sleep can affect not just our performance but our overall happiness. Sleep Physiologist Stephanie Romiszewski will be discussing why lockdown has impacted our sleep, and what you can do to achieve better quality sleep – because Googling ‘how to fall asleep faster’ is not the answer.

• 8-8.30pm: A beginner’s guide to Reiki with Jasmin Harsono

  Join Jasmin Harsono, an intuitive wellness guide and founder of conscious lifestyle brand Emerald and Tiger, for a Self Reiki session to help aid deeper healing sleep. She will guide you through a practice teaching you how to use the power of touch and breath to tap into your Reiki – supporting your body’s natural ability to heal and balancing the mind, body and spirit. This session will help release tension inviting calm and deep relaxation.

• 8.30-8.45pm: Crystal sound bowls for sleep with Jasmin Harsono

  Following the Reiki journey, Jasmin will perform a soothing crystal bowl sound bath, allowing healing sounds and frequencies to flow through the energy fields within and around the body. The sounds will help you to connect with emotions, memories and thoughts, guiding you into a peaceful rest, reducing cortisol levels – our stress hormone and improving sleep by increasing melatonin – our sleep hormone.

• 8.45-9.15pm: Prep your body for bed with Yoga Nidra with Tracee Stanley

  Join Tracee Stanley for a yoga session designed to relax the body and mind for a deep and peaceful sleep. Yoga Nidra, also referred to as yogic sleep, is a transformative practice that aids sleep through meditative exercises. For this session, have your blankets, pillows and comfy sleepwear ready, and prepare to receive the rest you deserve.
