A Nervous System–Based Path to Better Sleep
Gentle support to help your system feel steadier—so rest can come more naturally, at your pace.
Meet Your Warm, Knowledgeable Guide
Hi there! I'm Carol Richard, and I'm passionate about helping people like you discover the sleep and nervous system healing you deserve.
Maybe you're here because you're tired of lying awake at night, or perhaps you've noticed that stress seems to live in your body in ways that feel overwhelming.
Here's what I know: You are not broken, and you don't need fixing. What you need is gentle support, practical tools, and someone who understands that healing happens at your own pace, in your own way.
My approach combines nervous system regulation, somatic practices, and gentle tapping (EFT) to help you create lasting change from the inside out. This isn't about forcing yourself to sleep or pushing through exhaustion — it's about creating safety in your body so rest becomes natural again.
Ways We Can Work Together
Each path is designed to meet you where you are and guide you toward the rest, regulation, and resilience you deserve.
The Better Sleep Community
A Nervous System–Based Path to Better Sleep (and Better Living)
The Better Sleep Community is a warm, ongoing space for people who want to understand why sleep feels hard—and how to gently support their nervous system so rest can come more naturally over time.
This is not about forcing better sleep or following rigid rules.
It’s about learning how your nervous system responds to stress, emotions, and daily life—and discovering supportive practices that help your body feel safer, steadier, and more settled, day and night.
Inside this community, sleep is both an entry point and an outcome. As your nervous system builds capacity and regulation, sleep often begins to shift—sometimes quietly, sometimes gradually, always at your pace.
Inside the Better Sleep Community, you’ll find:
🌿 Weekly live support calls with Carol, grounded in nervous system education
🌙 A growing video library you can return to anytime
🧠 Gentle nervous system awareness, mapping, and orienting practices
👐 Tapping (EFT) to support emotional regulation and nighttime settling
💛 Support around boundaries, capacity, and daily stress
📝 Simple worksheets and reflections that invite curiosity—not pressure
🤍 A warm, supportive community where you don’t have to figure this out alone
This is a space to slow down, listen to your body, and build a relationship with your nervous system—so sleep no longer feels like something you have to chase.
1:1 Nervous System–Informed Coaching
