Book excerpt: Conquer anxiety-induced insomnia with your mind—a workbook for rethinking sleep If you are among the 1/3 of adults in the United States dealing with the vicious cycle of chronic sleep disruption, you can put your worries to bed. The Sleep Workbook uses the scientifically proven Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) to change your thinking, improve your life, and help you get a good night's rest. By following easy-to-understand and easy-to-follow steps, you can reduce anxiety, change detrimental sleep habits, and sleep more easily. CBT-I can help you make measurable positive changes, boost your confidence, and have more energy to do the things that matter. Before turning to options like sleeping pills, take the time to understand your insomnia and change the things you have full control over—your thoughts and behavior. The Sleep Workbook contains: Personal experience—Use self-assessments, journal prompts, and self-reflective questions to fully grasp your underlying issues. Success rate—About 80% of people who complete CBT-I show long-term sleep improvement. A stronger you—As you learn to combat anxiety and other types of mood disorders, you'll likely increase your self-confidence because you were able to help yourself. No more counting sheep for you! Break the sleepless nights and start your days refreshed.
