CAN MDMA REWIRE YOUR SLEEP? | Mollie Eastman - E136

About this episode

Kristin and Mollie Eastman discuss how unresolved nervous system patterns affect sleep and the importance of integration for lasting transformation.

Kristin and Mollie Eastman of Sleep Is A Skill dive into how sleep disruption, anxiety, burnout, and hypervigilance are often signals of unresolved nervous system patterns rather than simple lifestyle issues. You’ll hear how intentional preparation, safe facilitation, and post-experience integration create lasting change instead of temporary relief.
