This is a great course, I realized that I didn’t finish it when you posted it and I opened it. Anyway it was very helpful to me to learn I didn’t have to actually nap to take a nap since I wasn’t a napper. Since the course I do nap daily now, it’s part of my routine. I also learned to take a nap when needed, my idea of a nap changed after your course, and is one of my favorite self care things I do. Love and Blessings Shelia

I highly recommend this course to anyone that wants to incorporate a daily nap into their routine. I like how Amanda helps release the mind and body to fall into the gentle rythm of her voice and fall asleep. Waking refreshed and relaxed. Thank you. ✌️❤️🙏

So good! The course completely changed my perspective of napping and is guided very lovingly. Clearly a lot of thought has been put into this course. Even though I don’t manage to fall asleep yet, I feel way more energised during the day since doing these powernaps. I look forward to continuing my napping journey! :)

This was good. Didn’t know how she was going to talk about napping for 31 days, but she did!

Taking a nap is indeed very powerful! I so enjoyed the 30 days spent in this course learning about the benefits of napping and enjoying the guided nap sessions. I will be continuing to use these, thank you Amanda!

Napping is a great alternative to meditation and they both work very well together. I have found that this 31-day course of power napping has noticeably improved my ability to fall asleep more easily at night. Practice makes perfect!

I love this course, Amanda. I really do feel as if I have a dear friend with me as I follow it. Thank you so much. Sometimes I feel as if what you are saying must have been inspired by a greater connection. I’ll be using it regularly . With much love.
