Hello,
I’m happy to report that generally I’m resting much better than before the course. Naturally, there are some nights which are challenging. However, I find that for me the most important tool to re-sharpen is going back strictly to the sleep window, getting settled again, and then I can gradually add 15 mins on either end bit by bit until I find myself feeling well rested.
Best of good luck!
JeanetteI too graduated about 2 months ago and I’m back to sleeping normally. CBT-I help to realign my circadian rthym because people with sleep problems generally fall asleep at uncertain times due to taking meds and/or anxieties. But what I found most helpful is doing absolutely nothing for sleep except staying awake long enough and adopting an open and accepting attitude when going to bed. I now only go to bed after spending after at least 16 hours awake and I sleep every single time! I also don’t do stimulus control anymore. If it takes longer for me to fall sleep, I just lay in bed and not struggle. I let my body take over and find that sleep will eventually come. When I am no longer anxious about sleep, not falling asleep fast is a good sign because it means I must be sleeping really well and not sleep deprived.
Jeanette and @Chee2308 – that’s outstanding news from both of you! Success stories like this really brighten the day! It sounds like both of you have really improved your sleep through the actions YOU took and commitment.
