My sister told me about Focusing Into Sleep, workshops for those who have sleep problems (who doesn’t these days?).

These workshops, run by Manhattan psyhotherapists, Susan Rudnick and Robin Kappy,  are for those who experience problems with falling asleep, restless waking during the night, or just want to fall asleep in a more peaceful way.

Sounds nice. Speaking of sleep problems, did I mention that I am typing this at 2:10 in the morning?

"The workshop guides people to draw on the well of wisdom that already resides within them to create better sleep patterns. Participants develop skills for moving into deeper levels of rest through visualization, self-hypnosis, and a therapeutic technique called ‘focusing.’

The workshops, which are at the 92nd Street Y and the 14th Street Y, are led by two certified focusing trainers. Here’s the info:
