Let's explore the ways you're making toddler bedtime worse + the solutions. The mysterious world of toddler bedtime is a realm where logic takes a backseat and bedtime stories turn into never-ending sagas. If you've ever found yourself negotiating with your toddler, or if your child's bedtime routine resembles a mix of a circus act and a diplomatic summit, then you're in the right place! Sleep training is not for the faint of heart. Here are 5 ways you're unintentionally making bedtime worse and the solutions that will help you turn it all around. 

Crossroad City, losing the balance, a haunted Hunter, some recent news, a radioactive Red Lobster, a recipe from Sammy, a first class Stamp (these jokes can just write themselves sometimes, right?), a couple of driven yet destructive directors, book talk, a slow burn strange little new thriller, and wrapping it up with a little Elliott Smith.

Tonight, as on every night, we gather in this gentle space to set down the weight of the day and return to what is calm, kind, and true within us. However you arrive—tired, restless, or full of thoughts—you are welcome, just as you are. There is no need to fix or change anything. Only to breathe, to listen, and to allow. This meditation will invite you to settle the body, ease the mind, and open the heart to rest. With breath and presence as steady companions, we'll create a spacious pause: a threshold between day and night, noise and quiet, effort and ease. Grounded in the spirit of the Bedtime Shema, this practice echoes a Jewish tradition of releasing grudges, seeking shelter, and entrusting the soul to the Holy One for safekeeping through the night. You don't need to know the words or come from any particular background. You only need to bring an openness to rest. If you've returned here before, thank you for making this part of your practice. If you are joining for the first time, welcome. This space belongs to you as well. Let this be your landing place. A soft exhale. A gentle homecoming to peace.

Halfway through the collection, we transition seamlessly into the peaceful patter of rain sounds, offering a new layer of coziness to lull you to sleep. Whether you're struggling with insomnia or simply seeking a peaceful escape, this collection is your perfect companion. Let the timeless allure of lighthouses and the comfort of nature's sounds lead you to your most restorative sleep yet. It's time to let go and dream away.1. Intro & Guided Meditation

Should we all join a run club? As Sydney prepares to host its first World Marathon Major this week, we explore why Australia is in the middle of a run club boom.

And in headlines today, More than 300,000 people marched in support of Palestine across over 40 cities and towns on Sunday — the largest mobilisation of its kind in Australia; Erin Patterson will return to court this week to face her surviving victim and the families of the three people she murdered with a poisoned meal; Lyle and Erik Menendez have both been denied parole after separate hearings in California; Luke Hemmings, frontman of the band 5 Seconds of Summer, has revealed that he and his wife quietly welcomed their first child — a baby girl.

In this episode, we uncover the strange fact that 11-year solar cycles shape your health, including your risk of cancer and autoimmune diseases. I'll admit this sounds like astrology. Or science fiction. It isn't.Statistics show that the number of sunspots during the year you were born  shortens your lifespan, on average, by more than a decade. And sunlight affects us in other strange ways. You may also be surprised to learn that living on the far western side of your time zone, or simply eating supper 8 PM compared to 6 PM, is associated with an increased risk of cancer.This episode also coverswhy your cancer risk rises as you live farther from the equator (it's not all vitamin D)how changing your bedtime each night--by less than an hour!--quietly raises your risk of early deathwhy your hospital room window determines how fast you healYou'll hear surprising data, real patient stories, and practical takeaways you can implement tonight. Want even more?

“Why am I the only one who knows when the kids need a bath… or that bedtime isn't optional?” If that sounds like your internal monologue on repeat, you're not alone—and you're not crazy. When you're constantly stuck in the same fight about chores, parenting, or just feeling alone in the relationship, it's more than frustrating—it's exhausting. This week, we're joined by licensed therapist and marriage alignment expert April Eldemire, LMFT, who shares why the issue isn't love, but a lack of clarity. She walks us through a simple 4-part ritual that helps couples reconnect, reduce resentment, and get back on the same team. So if you're tired of doing it all (and being the one who always has to bring it up), this episode gives you the words, the structure, and the encouragement to shift things—for good.

This meditation will invite you to settle the body, ease the mind, and open the heart to rest. With breath and presence as steady companions, we'll create a spacious pause: a threshold between day and night, noise and quiet, effort and ease. Grounded in the spirit of the Bedtime Shema, this practice echoes a Jewish tradition of releasing grudges, seeking shelter, and entrusting the soul to the Holy One for safekeeping through the night. You don't need to know the words or come from any particular background. You only need to bring an openness to rest. If you've returned here before, thank you for making this part of your practice. If you are joining for the first time, welcome. This space belongs to you as well. Let this be your landing place. A soft exhale. A gentle homecoming to peace.

In tonight's calming story, Oscar and his mother walk through the woods to the frog pond, where they find a bunch of tiny tadpoles. Explore the wonders of nature and make some very cute, little baby frog friends

Sleep struggles can feel like a nightly battle when parenting a child with ADHD. But what if the solution isn't another sticker chart or stricter routine—but understanding the unique way your child's brain processes sensory information?Dr. Amy and Teri talk about how during a recent webinar on focus and attention for homeschooling families, one question dominated our Q&A session: "How do I help my ADHD child sleep?" This reflects a universal challenge as sleep disruption affects nearly every aspect of family life. The science explains why: children with ADHD typically experience altered sleep patterns, struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or sleeping for shorter durations. What many parents don't realize is that their own exhaustion and frustration at bedtime can actually make the problem worse through mirror neurons—special brain cells that make emotions contagious between people who care about each other.The game-changer for many families starts with identifying whether your child is a sensory seeker or a sensory avoider. Sensory seekers—those kids who run laps around the house and dive into couch cushions—need additional stimulation to calm down. They benefit from weighted blankets, textured bedding, rhythmic sounds, or rocking motions. Meanwhile, sensory avoiders become overwhelmed by too much input and need darker rooms, minimal noise, and softer textures. Understanding this fundamental difference allows you to create a bedroom environment that serves as your child's sensory sanctuary.Beyond environmental adjustments, be mindful that blue light from screens biologically blocks melatonin release, signaling to the brain that it's still daytime. This makes the no-screens-before-bed rule not arbitrary, but physiologically necessary. Quality sleep literally cleanses your child's brain, washing away toxins that accumulate during the day's neural activity. Without this cleansing process, cognitive function, emotional regulation, and learning capacity—areas where neurodivergent children already struggle—become even more challenging. By tailoring sleep routines to your child's unique sensory profile, you're not just improving nights, you're setting them up for better days and creating positive ripple effects throughout your family life.CONNECT WITH US: Website: www.TheBrainyMoms.com Email: info@TheBrainyMoms.com Social Media: @TheBrainyMoms Our sponsor's website: www.LearningRx.comSandy's TikTok: @TheBrainTrainerLadyDr. Amy's brand new IG: @DrAmySaysGraceDr. Amy's website: www.AmyMoorePhD.com

Bible Reading: Psalm 32:1-5; Matthew 6:9-13Robin knelt at the foot of her bed and bowed her head to pray. It was hard to focus with her little sister, Jenny, screaming in the bathroom. "No! I don't want to brush my teeth!" Jenny cried.Mom poked her head into Robin's room, a tired smile on her face. "Robin, could Jenny and I pray with you? Maybe we can pray that Jenny will want to brush her teeth."Robin nodded, and her sister raced into the room and sat beside her, suddenly an angel. "Dear Jesus," Robin said. "Thank You for helping me with my math homework and healing Grandma from her fall. Please bless all my friends and family. Help us have a good night's sleep. Amen.""Amen!" Jenny exclaimed."Robin, did you forget something?" Mom asked."Oh, right. Jesus, please help Jenny brush her teeth without complaining. Amen."Mom smiled. "Just one more thing. Do you remember how Jesus taught us how to pray? In addition to thanking God and bringing our needs to Him, we also need to confess our sins."Robin sighed. "I just don't see the point in asking Jesus to forgive my sins every single day. I'll still make mistakes tomorrow.""Admitting our wrongs is about more than preventing future mistakes," Mom replied.Jenny tugged on Mom's sleeve. "Bedtime?" Robin laughed. "Nice try, Jenny. But you have to brush your teeth.""Why does she need to brush her teeth?" Mom asked Robin."Because her teeth are dirty and she might get cavities if she waits too long to clean them.""But her teeth will be dirty again tomorrow," Mom said. "And every day after that. Maybe the whole thing is pointless.""It's still healthier to brush her teeth daily," Robin said. Then she laughed. "You're not talking about brushing teeth, are you?""You caught me," Mom said. "Confessing our sins reminds us of our need for Jesus and helps us appreciate what He did to save us. Prayer is meant to bring us closer to Jesus in this way."Robin turned to Jenny. "If I confess my sins to Jesus, will you finally brush your teeth?"Jenny sighed dramatically. "Okay, fine." –Hannah ChungHow About You?Have you ever wondered why you should confess your sins to Jesus and ask for His forgiveness when you pray? Confessing means to recognize an action or attitude as sin and trust God for forgiveness, knowing that it is because of Jesus's sacrifice on the cross that we will be forgiven. Take a moment to confess any sins, trusting that God will forgive you each and every time.Today's Key Verse:If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.(NKJV) (1 John 1:9)Today's Key Thought:Confess your sins daily
