Sleep Better
Group or one-to-one insomnia coaching for tranquil nights and transformed lives.
How do you sleep?
Do you fail to get enough hours of sleep to feel refreshed and focused the next day on most nights of the week?
Do you regularly struggle to fall asleep within 15 minutes of getting into bed?
Do you regularly wake up in the early hours and then lay awake for more than 15 minutes?
Does your body clock regularly wake you up far earlier than your alarm clock, meaning you feel tired during the day?
If you answered YES to any of these questions and…
This has gone on for at least three months.
You have consulted your GP or another medical professional to exclude any kind of sleep disorder, such as sleep apnea or narcolepsy.
Then I can help you Sleep Better!

I was where you are.
I was a chronic insomniac for ten years and so I understand how debilitating it is to not feel like you are getting enough sleep. I know that it affects every part of your life. That it means every night of poor sleep is followed by a day of struggle and emotional exhaustion.
For me, it wasn’t the falling asleep that was the issue but more the waking up at 4am unable to then fall back to sleep. I felt more wide awake in the middle of the night than any other point in the day.
Then, so many times, when that mid-afternoon slump arrived, I would feel myself actually nodding off in the middle of a busy open plan office. I’d drag myself to the ladies and splash cold water on my face before returning to my desk to struggle on until the end of the working day.
I’d get home exhausted, wearily cook the evening meal, get the kids to bed and then be asleep within ten minutes of sitting down on the sofa. I’d wake up an hour or so later, drag myself into bed and start the cycle all over again. I’d occasionally get a few nights or even brief weeks of respite, usually during the summer months, but sometimes it was even 2am when I woke not 4am. I was often short-tempered or tearful and my body felt constantly tense. I tried everything I could find to help me to sleep better, but nothing worked.
Why Sleep Hygiene isn’t the Answer
If you are anything like me, you will also already have done lots of research into tips to get better sleep. You may have cut out caffeine and alcohol with no improvement. Maybe you’ve tried going to your GP, who reluctantly gave you a course of sleeping tablets, but they only worked short-term or not at all. You don’t want to rely on medication anyway!
You’ve bought every kind of over the counter herbal and natural remedy, tried relaxation apps and installed blackout blinds, but you still can’t sleep? Yep, me too. I tried them all.
What I know now is that, in fact, in some cases, sleep hygiene may actually make your sleep worse! Sleep anxiety is real and, sometimes, the more we try to put things in place to support better sleep, the worse our sleep actually gets. Also, all of these things we try, whilst they can form part of the answer, they don’t address the root cause stopping us from sleeping in the first place. For the majority of us who don’t have an actual sleep disorder, that root cause is a combination of poor sleep habits, that go against our natural sleep cycle, and an hyper-aroused body and mind fuelled by high levels of stress hormones in the blood.
This is why a ‘one size fits all’ sleep programme might not work for you. Our habits, beliefs and stress triggers are different for us all.
Then it all changed…
The game changer for me was learning how to implement simple but highly effective Cognitive Behavioural Therapy strategies around my sleep and combining this with repairing my exhausted and over-stimulated nervous system through Reiki Relaxation sessions and daily mindfulness practices. It turns out that better sleep actually starts with what you do from the very moment you wake up!
We are born with the ability to sleep well as this is crucial to our survival. Somewhere along the way, the way we live our busy, modern lives, means we lose that ability but with the right understanding and training we can re-discover the not so ‘secret’ to regular good sleep.
It's not some weird, spiritual healing practice but a combination of knowing the right things to do and not do plus finding a safe and gentle way to lower the levels of stress hormones in your blood through deep relaxation. It allows your brain to quit with the ‘fight or flight’ stress response and instead tune in to the ‘rest and digest’ response that comes from restoring the balance of your peri-sympathetic nervous system and therefore promote the production of sleep hormones instead.
Imagine how you would feel if…
You could fall asleep quickly on getting into bed most nights.
You stayed asleep all night or fell back asleep easily if you did briefly wake.
You woke up in the morning feeling fully refreshed and ready to face your day most days.
You didn’t feel like you were wading through treacle or a thick fog all day.
You looked forward to climbing into bed rather than dreading it.
You could throw away all the sleep aids that leave you feeling groggy during the day and cost a small fortune.
If illness or a life event threatened to disrupt your sleep again in the future, you knew you already had all the tools to get things back on track within days.
