Let's get into it...
In this section we will be looking at the basics of sleep - why it's important for your health and wellbeing, and what can cause insomnia. Once we understand sleep better we can start to unpick the source of any issues, and then the solutions!
Sleep can make a huge difference to your health, happiness and wellbeing, so in this video we look at exactly why it's so important.
In this next chapter we are investigating what happens during your sleep. The different cycles your body goes through, and different types of sleep quality.
In this section we will be starting to look at your options for solving poor sleep or a lack of sleep. Some of these you might use just for travel jet lag, or others might be needed on a more regular basis. We'll cover options ranging from medication to natural complementary therapies.
In this chapter we will look at whole host of practical tips to help you improve your sleep quality and quantity. Some, or all of these may work for you, but the most important thing is to give them a try and suss out what's best for your lifestyle and body.
It's so important that your bedroom is a peaceful haven where you feel relaxed, welcome and soothed. If your room is cluttered, or has too much technology in, you might want to consider a revamp. You'd be amazed how much difference a new lighting source, or paint colour can make!
Consider very carefully what your routine is like leading up to bedtime. Just as with babies and children, we need a regular and relaxing routine that encourages a smooth transition into sleep and a natural drowsiness. If you often find yourself struggling to get to sleep you might want to look at some the factors in this video.
It may come as a surprise that diet can massively affect your quality of sleep and ability to fall asleep quickly. In this lecture we'll give you huge list of foods you can try adding into your diet to help with sleep. Why not make yourself an evening snack including as many as possible?
A fantastic way to improve your ability to sleep, and quality of your rest is to reduce the amount of stress in your life. Are you doing more than you should, or saying yes to things that should be someone else's job? All of these can contribute to stress induced insomnia, and so in this lecture we'll give tips on taking some of the stress out.
In this section we look at a wide range of mind and body techniques. Everything from CBT to physical relaxation, and meditation, can really help break a cycle of poor sleep. Whether you're suffering from insomnia, can't get to sleep if you wakeup, or are waking in the morning feeling poorly rested, all of these could help.
Another technique you could try for getting to sleep smoothly is a mantra. Here's one that works fantastically for me, and involves wishing good things on all those around you. I often don't even finish it as I'm already asleep!
When you wake up in the night, it's important to try and get back to sleep as possible, but this is often easier said than done. In this video we'll give you some practical guidance on things you might be doing wrong at the moment, and options for improving your chances of falling back to sleep next time.
Menopause often causes issues with sleep due to hormone imbalances, and in this section we'll look at some common complaints, as well as easy fixes.
