I took Martins CBTI course in Aug and Sept. which opened my eyes! By sticking with a sleep window, I was able to differentiate between sleepiness and fatigue and only went to sleep when I felt sleepy which really helped me fall asleep. I learned that I should not oversleep because that will reduce my sleep drive the next night and might cause difficulty falling asleep. Mainly I learned that my negative thoughts and sleep anxiety was causing my insomnia. Martin provides a clear and detailed cbti course which I highly recommend. He always responds to emails with personal feedback in a timely fashion! I definitely made improvement and I am continuing to implement some of these strategies to keep my sleep on track!

Thanks for sharing, Frima!

Recognizing the difference between fatigue and sleepiness can be a real gamechanger because it’s so easy to confuse the two sensations! Fatigue doesn’t usually lead to sleep, but sleepiness sure does! When we build sleep drive we can rediscover the power (and sensation) of sleepiness and that can be really reassuring (not to mention really helpful for sleep)!

Identifying and exploring sleep-related thoughts that can increase arousal and perpetuate sleep disruption can be so helpful, too — you got results because of your own efforts and your own natural ability to sleep, Frima!
