About this listen
CBT-i (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia) is often called the "gold standard" for treating insomnia.
However, while CBT-i does help some people, others find that it doesn’t fully resolve their sleep issues.
I was one of them, and so are most of our clients.
Sleep Education in CBT-i
CBT-i starts by teaching people about sleep.
This helps you understand why you might have trouble sleeping and corrects some false beliefs.
Sleep education usually includes tips like:
- Keep your room cool, dark, and quiet.
- Avoid screens and blue light before bedtime.
- Avoid drinking coffee or eating heavy meals close to bedtime.
- Have a calming bedtime routine.
- Exercise during the day.
- Get sunlight in the morning.
- Stop liquids 4 hours before bed.
These tips can presumably help set the right conditions for sleep.
But some people become too strict about these rules.
