Sleep plays a crucial role in our waking lives. While we sleep, our
bodies are recharging with energy, damaged tissue is repaired, and
our memories are stored. When we don't get enough sleep, we are
tired, less positive, less motivated, less focused, and more likely
to feel depressed. We may even experience more intense cravings for
high-fat, sugar-rich foods. And yet, despite the myriad advantages
of getting a good night's sleep, countless people suffer from
chronic insomnia. If you're one of them, this book can help. In
this guide, a trained mindfulness expert teams up with a
behavioural sleep specialist to offer evidence-based meditations
and an innovative four-week protocol to address the emotional
stresses and anxieties that lie at the root of sleep issues. You'll
learn practices grounded in mindfulness-based stress reduction
(MBSR), mindful self-compassion (MSC), and guided mindfulness and
acceptance for insomnia (GMATI) to alleviate the mental, emotional,
and physical suffering caused by insomnia. You'll also learn to
identify both internal and external factors that may be
compromising your sleep, and develop a plan to address these
issues. There is nothing we can do to "make" ourselves fall asleep.
In many ways, this is why insomnia can be so maddening. But what we
can do is help create the conditions necessary for healthy slumber.
The mindfulness tools in this book will help you do exactly that.
