Welcome to the Cultivate mini-series — bite-sized episodes from Farm Life Psych with Steph Schmidt that plant small seeds of change to support your mental health and wellbeing through the ups and downs of life on the land.
In this first episode, we’re talking about sleep — or the lack of it. Whether you’re out in the paddock working long hours or at home juggling everything else, sleep often gets sacrificed during seeding and other high-pressure seasons.
In this practical chat, Steph shares simple, evidence-based strategies to help you:
Wind down and switch off (even with a wired, racing mind)
Set up your space and body for rest
Work with — not against — your sleep patterns
Navigate alcohol, caffeine, and screen use mindfully
If your brain’s stuck in overdrive or you’re just plain exhausted, this one’s for you.
