Sleep Better Naturally

Meets Mondays · 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM · on Zoom Fall 2026 · registration open Free to audit
This class runs in the Fall 2026 session. Registration is open now; lessons, materials, and the class discussion board are posted before it begins.

Here's the thing. If you fall asleep fine but wake up tired or snap awake at 3am with your brain running a jobsite meeting, this class is for you. I'm not a doctor. I'm a contractor who got wrecked after we moved to American Fork and then read too many books and tested changes on myself, one at a time, writing down what actually worked.

We meet Mondays 7-8pm. Every week you pick ONE small change, try it, and write down what happened in a little notebook. No supplements to buy, no gadgets required. Mostly free stuff: light, evening routine, and setting up your bedroom cool, dark, and boring.

You'll leave with a small experiment, not a whole lifestyle overhaul. Worth a shot 🥰

What you'll learn

  • Set a consistent wake time to anchor sleep
  • Track one change at a time in a sleep notebook
  • Build an evening wind-down with dimmer light and cooler air
  • Tell the difference between a fixable habit and a doctor visit
  • Design a boring, repeatable bedtime routine that sticks

Lessons

  1. Why You Wake Up Tired

    We figure out what your sleep is actually doing before we change anything.

  2. Wake Time Is King

    The single change I'd start with, and why my mom's been doing it by accident for 60 years.

  3. Light In, Light Out

    Morning sun is underrated and evening light is the real culprit, and both are basically free.

  4. Cool, Dark, Boring

    Your bedroom setup, treated like a room you actually built for sleeping.

  5. The Evening Wind-Down

    A routine that removes obstacles instead of adding willpower, because you can't try harder to sleep.

  6. Pills, Trackers, and 3am

    Where I'm skeptical, where I got things wrong, and the stuff that only works 60% of the time.

Class discussion

The class discussion board opens when the class begins this fall. Auditors and enrolled students ask questions and share work here once the session starts.
