About
Clara Starr is a narrative artist who grew up in the countryside of East Anglia in the UK. When she wasn't at school, she spent as much time as possible exploring the beaches, rivers and forests near her home. The experience of spending time immersed in the wild inspired a deep love of nature. Fast forward to adulthood. After seven years of working for a national news network in the United States, Clara was utterly burned out. The stress of deadlines, exposure to the news and working the night shift in the big city had wreaked havoc on her health and sleep pattern. So at this time in her life, she quit TV news and moved away from the city to the Blue Ridge mountains of western North Carolina. Here she reconnected with her first love, nature and started a meditation practice. Both healed her well-being and sleep disorder and restored her sense of self.

There are lengthy, silent moments that lull your brain to sleep, but it is not boring, the mind stays engaged in a relaxing, drifting sort of way.

Sleep is essential, wouldn't you agree?
Poor sleep is linked to depression, lack of concentration, an impaired immune system and weight gain, to name but a few things. That’s why a good eight hours of sleep is so important.
