Ask Daniel #62: Post Traumatic Insomnia
Friday Jul 10, 2020
Friday Jul 10, 2020
Insomnia is often described as something similar to PTSD. Something happened in the past that triggered ongoing trouble sleeping and although you sleep better, this fear and the insomnia that came with it, can be triggered again.
In this episode we look at an email from Natalie and talk about how the way to not have Post Tramuatic Insomnia is to accept that the trigger and the trouble sleeping that followed can happen again. Because when you stop resisting that potential trigger, you avoid the reaction that lead to ongoing insomnia.

Insomnia Insight #327: Smoking the Peace Pipe
Thursday Jul 09, 2020
Thursday Jul 09, 2020
Insomnia happens when we fight the perceived opponent of sleeplessness. This narrative is reinforced if you look at sleeping well on any given night as a victory. This is why you should be happy and celebrate when you sleep well, without being victorious or becoming attached to the outcome.

Insomnia Insight #326: Couch vs Bed
Wednesday Jul 08, 2020
Wednesday Jul 08, 2020
At what point should I go back to sleeping in my bed? This is a very common question from a viewer or client who’s been sleeping on the couch or spare bed since insomnia started.
The answer - the sooner the better!
Because when you do, you no longer feel that you’re being punished for having trouble sleeping, you no longer have that looming inevitable future trigger of having to go back to bed and most importantly - you will start building true sleep confidence.
