The Sleep Coach School Podcast

In this episode of Insomnia Insight, Coach Daniel discusses sleep confidence and its different forms. He explains three key insights: trusting that your sleep system is healthy, knowing you can function on little sleep, and understanding the illusion of needing confidence to sleep. 

He emphasizes that reducing sleep struggles comes from understanding your sleep system and recognizing your resilience, rather than trying to force confidence. By internalizing these insights, you can achieve more peaceful sleep.
