Once the pattern of struggling to sleep sets in, this typically becomes chronic insomnia, which does not resolve on its own. The good news is that regardless of the initial trigger, effective solutions are within reach.
If you're struggling with sleep, you've likely tried various methods for relief, from sleep hygiene practices to medication. Yet, achieving restful sleep can feel elusive.
In today's digital age, where ‘Dr. Google’ inundates us with diagnoses, and social media often spreads misinformation about sleep, effective solutions can be obscured. Available guidance often overlooks the physiological factors driving sleep, potentially exacerbating sleep issues.
​
Insomnia can arise from various triggers such as traumatic events, stress, depression, anxiety, hormonal imbalances, as well as thoughts, beliefs, behaviours, and lifestyle habits related to sleep.
Think of insomnia like a snowball gaining momentum and size as it rolls downhill. Even if your stress levels or hormonal balance improves; Chronic Insomnia has its own momentum and will likely continue on. To stop the snowball from rolling, we don't need to solve the force that initially propelled it but simply halt its progression.

By addressing sleep physiology directly, CBT-I aims to intercept and disrupt insomnia's course. With improved sleep, resolving any other underlying issues becomes more manageable.
