How To Sleep Again Part 2
The Nightime List Man
The battle over intrusive thoughts at bedtime is like being constantly interrupted by an uninvited guest who shows up with a list of items, demanding that you give attention to each one of them. Now!
Can we gain any control over this nightly intruder? Tim and Yana talk more about what helps, what hinders, and what hope we have for “restful nights and resilient days.”
Infidelity often wrecks sleep. In the second episode of a two-part series, Tim talks further with certified sleep coach Yana Vriesinga about post-infidelity insomnia and how to heal your nights.
Tim continues his conversation with Yana Vriesinga, a certified sleep coach trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). In this episode: The List Man spoils Tim’s sleep, how the brain works at night, distractions from intrusive thoughts, the 3-P Model of insomnia (Prone, Push, Prolong), alcohol as a sleep-aid, and bad dreams.
