Insomnia insight #319 The 3 most common CBTi mistakes that keep you from sleeping fabulous

In this episode we talk about the three problems with textbook CBTi:

1. Setting an extremely short sleep window
2. The rule of getting out of bed if not sleeping in 20 minutes
3. The rule of using the bed only for sleep

We also go over the better approaches:

1. Set a sleep window that you can commit to for weeks or more
2. Get out of bed only if you’re frustrated
3. Use the bed for anything that gives you pleasure!
