Dave talks with Tracey ‘The Sleep Coach’ about what leads to poor sleep and insomnia along with how you can change things to achieve good sleep A good night’s sleep is the foundation for feeling good and being able to do what you want to do during the day so good sleep is always important Tracey shares practical tips on what you can do to optimise your sleep so that the sleep you get during the night is ‘a good night’s sleep’ making you feel good and able to do what you need and want to do during the day KEY TAKEAWAYS Sleep is very individual; some people require more sleep than others Optimise your sleep by creating the right environment There is no need to try to ‘catch up’ on missed sleep It’s important to keep doing the good things in life to take your attention away from any sleep issues A relaxed approach to sleep is the best way to achieve it An uncluttered room, a comfortable bed, a cooler environment, and a good wind-down routine are the starting points for good sleep Good sleepers can’t tell you how they sleep they just go to bed and sleep well Tracking sleep patterns only gives you information to hang anxiety on so stop clock watching your sleep and ditch the wearables There is not one position that is preferable for sleeping, it’s very individual and depends on several factors Sleep is an emotional process as well as a physical one and it’s not always linear Sometimes we lose our connection or get in the way of it but you can reconnect with your natural ability to sleep it’s something we never lose CBTi gives you a set of skills mental, emotional, and behavioural that you can use for the rest of your life BEST MOMENTS ‘When you stop worrying about sleep it lowers your arousal level and you will experience better sleep’ ‘There isn’t a return for trying to get more sleep than you need‘ ‘Accepting that you may not sleep well takes the anxiety away’ THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/ VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ RESOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE Tracey The Sleep Coach Tracy The Sleep Coach Instagram Sound Sleep Strategies Group Facebook ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.
