@@shriram2455 Thank you for the comment. I'm sorry to hear that you've been struggling. Most of the time, once the physical issues go away, the sleep settles over time. But it won't be 'overnight'. The body needs to go through the recovery process in order to be able to relax and return to good sleep. So my suggestion is to get the main symptoms treated and relax about the lack of sleep. When we're unwell and in 'danger' mode, the body may keep us awake for that particular reason. But part of recovery is that the body starts to settle and sleep returns to normal. Seek medical treatment for the main health challenges and don't put pressure on the perfection of sleep for now.

t might also just be metabolic, I was over exercising obsessed with cardio, under eating and not getting enough carbs which resulted in several nutritional deficiencies after 6 years etc (thought I was being healthy, felt great in the initial years) unknowingly I was putting my body in a catabolic state which will cause the body to stay awake and alert, as it is meant to. Think about what you are doing and what messages you are sending to your central nervous system via the way you eat, exercise and live...you might be putting your body in survival mode and the body is simply doing what its meant to be doing. I cut back and changed the way I exercise opting for more anabolic promoting activities with ample recovery time, ate more frequent balanced meals, avoided stimulants and recently quit alcohol. It has taken a long time for my body to balance out and recover, I now don't even need to bother with or think about sleep hygiene, I get tired and sleep. I hope this helps someone in a similar predicament, the worst part is not knowing what is happening, how to recover. and no one seems to be able to help. You can't relax, meditate or think your way out of a catabolic state....Give your body what it needs and your central nervous system and mind will calm and deep sleep will return.

I get insomnia when my thyroid is off. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, which the doctor couldn't figure out until I requested a full thyroid panel. When I'm eating properly, and limiting even healthy veggies, like cruciferous, and fruits due to the sugar, I feel better. I also limit my bread intake, and processed foods. I can't exercise intensely either because it sets my thyroid off too. So I stick to light to moderate workouts, and occasionally intense workouts. I'm off my meds because they worked only the beginning. Fixing insomnia (or health issues) takes a lot of work. But it's worth it because otherwise I'm sleepy through the day, and at night wide away. It's awful. I am always looking for information for better sleep quality. This video was helpful. It's a marathon not a sprint for sure.

Thank you for your comment Ana, in your case, it's really good to hear that when you manage the underlying problem, the sleep quality improves. And you're very right about the fact that it takes work! I think a lot of articles and videos talk about 'quick fixes' which misleads people. When we can look at it as a marathon, it will help us all to have the patience and the commitment to get to the results and even relax about the process. One step at a time, one change at a time, one improvement at a time. Struggling with sleep problems and insomnia is not a nice experience, but we don't have to struggle, we can just improve it one step at a time.

I've had chronic insomnia for 14 years, first 5 years during High School and College I didn't take medication and hardly ever slept, this led to me becoming hyper sensitive to sounds. The last 9 years I've been taking alot of Pharmaceudical meds to sleep. They work, but I have to sleep for 11 to 12 hours just to feel somewhat normal and refreshed, also my energy is still very low. I wish I could stop taking meds and just sleep like a regular person.

Thank you for the comment. Becoming hypersensitive or a 'light sleeper' is something I hear very often these days. And because sleep medication has been available unfortunately people like you end up in these situations over a number of years. Whilst, of course, there is nothing wrong with sleep medication for short-term use, but it cuts out the learning process of teaching our body and mind to create sleep naturally and increases our confidence in knowing how to make it happen in a practical way. Coming off sleep medication is completely possible but it takes commitment, putting practical effort in, a whole load of patience. And most importantly working with a trained professional which is what I strongly recommend. It's almost like learning a new language, you can't expect you to speak a new language without developing that skill. Overcoming insomnia especially when it's linked to long-term medicine use takes time but it's completely possible. Whilst I know this isn't perhaps the answer you expected, but I do hope that it gives you the encouragement to seek the appropriate help to work on this so you can be just like a 'regular' person!

Thank you for posting a wonderful educational video. Im 52 work out daily, eat mostly vegetarian, plant based, don't drink or smoke. I have been dealing with chronic insomnia for over 2 years. Either can't fall asleep, or wake up after 2 hours and can't get back to sleep. Some nights no sleep. I have become exhausted daily. My Dr wants to either put me on z drugs, did not work, or sedating antidepressant, strangely do not work. I don't know how to fix this.i was on klonopin for 2 years, did a 6 month taper and I have been off for 4 months. My insomnia started a year after taking this medication, but my Dr says its not why, but i disagree. I would love to learn more about how I can work with you May God Bless Michael

Hi Michael Thank you for the comment and for sharing your sleep problems. I'm glad my videos have been helpful. This is not an uncommon situation and I come across people like you in my practice every day. On the outside, you're healthy and from your doctor's perspective, the only thing he seems to be able to offer is sleep medication. Has he ever suggested CBTi (cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia) approach? Of course, this can depend on where you are based or the healthcare system in the particular country. I find that when medications don't seem to be effective, we have to look at the retraining behavioural approach, which is what I specialise in. Building up those skill sets around sleep will be able to help your body and your mind to relearn how to practically create good quality sleep. And it's a very practical process. But please note, it takes time, on average 6-12 weeks for things to change depending on the amount of time and effort you're able to put in. Please note, that the only exception is if you have any other underlying medical conditions but I'm guessing your Dr checked you out properly. The first step in exploring how to work with me is to arrange a Complimentary Sleep Coaching Session here: www.beatrixaschmidt.com/complimentary-session I offer two main types of services: one-to-one (limited availability) and group sleep coaching programme called Sleep Skills for Life. I'm looking forward to speaking with you soon!

Hi bjamngirl, thank you for the comment. Anxiety, depression and other mental health problems of course influence sleep in negative ways. Whilst I don't think medication is a bad thing for these, often what's missing is the practical skills and tools to proactively manage the situation. I've worked with clients over the years who had these types of issues, and once you learn a few effective tools and develop some Sleep Skills, both tend to improve significantly. I'd start with establishing which part of sleep you struggle with and focusing on practical actions to improve that particular part of your sleep first. One step at a time, one day at a time. This isn't going go go away overnight, but it's completely possible to improve the situation.

Hi Heather Thank you for the comment and the question. My approach is more extensive than CBT-I mainly because I approach this work with a more practical perspective, really looking at what the person needs. As you know CBT-I is often only 6 sessions and a very general approach which doesn't really seem to work effectively for everyone. You're not the only person who hasn't seen long-term results from it, sadly. Feel free to get in touch and book yourself in for Complimentary Session and let's see if my approach is suitable for you. Just because you have pre-existing conditions, it doesn't mean that overcoming insomnia is not possible.

@beatrixaschmidt
@beatrixaschmidt 6 ай бұрын
Thank you for the question. With complex and long-term insomnia, simply listening to music is too superficial. I'm not against anything but if it doesn't completely sort the problem out so you can sleep well every night consistently, it's too superficial. Of course, you know how much it helps you, and you can take it from there. If you still struggle to sleep well, then the answer becomes obvious. What I found in my practice is the longer the lack of physical, emotional and mental relaxation goes on, the less likely these very superficial and non 'retraining' actions have an influence. When I work with clients, I get them to a place when they don't 'need' anything in order to sleep well, they sleep well because they know how to physically, emotionally and mentally relax even before they go to their bedroom. I hope this clarifies it for you.

Hi there Often the more pressure kids have at school the more the problems continue or elevate. I don't work with under aged children but I'm sure you can find (or already found) a practitioner who can help and support your son. When it comes to a version 'performance' pressure' which is what it perhaps sounds like, there are plenty of things that he can learn to help him sleep well even if pressure goes up. I didn't find that external things help because it's more about dealing with emotional and mental pressure rather than the physical things. I hope this helps if you haven't yet found other resources helpful

I'm sorry to hear that your local medical professionals can't seem to help you. I'm not sure about your situation but of course, you can look at working with someone like me. I personally off private sleep coaching services if that is something that you want to look into. When sleep aids or sleeping tablets are involved, it can be a bit more complex situation which needs support from a trained professional like me. Most likely not a medical professional if they only offer you medication. Look for someone locally perhaps who offers practical services like sleep coaching or even therapy.

It's good to hear that you have a number of things that are working for you. Without overanalysing, I'd suggest you become curious about what is showing up when you can't sleep. There is always a sign to tell us what's the root cause of your problems. All the things you've mentioned are quite physically driven, but emotional and mental parts are also what we need to deal with to create full relaxation.

Hi Julie, thank you for sharing so openly about your sleep problems. I'm sorry to hear that so many things are going on all at once for you. I'd suggest you start by approaching this in a more practical way and start learning tools and techniques on how to let go on your problems mentally so you stop thinking about them at night. All of these things link to each other, and often it's difficult to address everything all at once. Starting with a 'one step at a time' approach will still work for you. During my work with clients, practically training the body and the mind to let go and calm down is a daily practice.

It sounds like that your insomnia is already complex with emotions and other things rising up even before you go to bed. This is therefore not about what wakes you up to begin with. If you go to bed already nervous and fearing what may happen, you're already much further from physical, emotional and mental relaxation. Which means that as you transition between sleep staged in the middle of the night, your mind becomes more active again. (This is the simplest way to describe it), therefore you have to start with dealing with the emotions and the fear before you even go to bed. My suggestion is to seek help from a local professional who can really help you with a practical plan. Whoever you work with also needs to be familiar with sleep related nervousness and fear, so that they can help you with it properly. Obviously, I also work with clients, so you can explore how you can work with me as well. I hope this helps so that you can get the support you need.

Hi Susan Unfortunately, your example is not that uncommon. The less practical help and support you tend to have, the longer insomnia or sleep problems tend to be there. But committing to do the work it takes to overcome this is the first step. Think about it from a skill-building perspective rather than perhaps not doing much about it in a practical way. Whilst sleep is not a 'skill' that are many skills around sleep that I call Sleep Skills. These are all to retrain the body and the mind to be able to create and make good quality sleep happen.

Hi Belle My apologies for the delay with my reply. Sleep medication is often the only thing that your medical doctor or GP can provide you with. So it's okay that it's what you've been taking. I personally know that you don't have to rely on medication in order to sleep well, but it just depends on what you'd like to do. Of course you always want the sleep medicine because you probably haven't learnt practical and effective sleep skills yet that can help you sleep without having to resort to sleep medication.

I cannot fall asleep at all and I end up staying up till at least three when I am just a wee bit tired then I go to sleep in my bed but I don’t fall asleep till about 5:30 AM. This has been a problem for about four years. My doctor put me on A medication that was addictive so after three years I went off that and now I cannot sleep at all and it’s been over a year. I am lucky if I get two hours sleep at night but then I lay in bed till another seven hours trying to get 20 minutes here an hour there and believe me at 75 years old this is no fun. I’ve tried walking and exercising moderately and I just cannot go to sleep. Suggestions like CBD oil are way too expensive for me to put out that much every month on very little income and at this point I get exhausted just thinking about it but not enough to let me fall asleep at a normal time like between 11 and 1 AM

Hi Suzy, please accept my apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I completely understand how difficult this is, and things feel even worse when we don't sleep well. I have a number of other videos on this channel that can get you started but think about practical tools, techniques and what I call Sleep Skills rather than quick fixes or external things. What this sounds like is that your body has stopped understanding what it's supposed to do at night which is often a behavioural type problem (unless there is a medical reason or disorder why this happens for you). Not being able to fall asleep initially and being able to fall asleep again once you wake up is what I regularly help clients overcome. I don't have a quick and easy answer for this, instead, think of skill building over a period of time. You're more than welcome to look at some of the more Masterclass I recorded: www.beatrixaschmidt.com/online-courses-and-masterclasses or other KZbin videos on this channel.

As a sleep coach I help clients put in place a number of things (depending on the extent of sleep issues or insomnia) to help them sleep well again. You're very welcome to explore the other resources on my KZbin channel or other resources via my website.

Hi there You're very welcome to take some of my suggestions and start working on your sleep in a proactive and practical way. In my sleep coaching practice, that is how I help clients to overcome their sleep problems, but it naturally requires work and doing the right thing that is applicable to your sleep problems.

Hi Tracey, this was an introductory video on this topic. I understand that you perhaps expected a short answer that will solve all your sleep problems but chronic insomnia is more complex than that. In the coming weeks, I'll be posting additional videos on how to break down this 3-6 month process that I take my clients through. Of course, you can always book yourself in for a Complimentary Session as I mentioned under your other comment or seek a practitioner locally to you.

I agree! When topic says “How to” I’m expecting “how”, not an introduction to the topic. None of this video was helpful. Clickbait

Hi Adrijana, I'm very sorry to hear that you haven't found help and support for so long. With all due respect, I do know what I'm talking about. But it might not be something you're open to which is of course not a problem at all. You're very welcome to reach out and book yourself in for a complimentary session that I offer and we can discuss what I might be able to suggest to help and support you. Otherwise, it sounds like the medication seems to be working for you to get some sleep. I wish you all the very best

Hello Adrijana did you find a cure? Or any type of solution. My mom suffers from chronic insomnia and we are desperate about a cure.
