Insomnia Coach® Podcast

How Gerry used mindfulness and self-kindness to move away from an endless struggle with insomnia (#52)


Listen Later

Gerry's decades-long struggle with insomnia felt like a never-ending battle. The more he tried to force sleep, the worse his insomnia became.
His turning point came when he shifted his approach, embracing mindfulness and self-kindness instead of engaging in an ongoing battle. By focusing on the present moment and practicing self-compassion, Gerry found a new, more effective way to approach sleep.
The result was transformative: not only did his sleep improve, but his overall quality of life also took a turn for the better. This episode dives deep into Gerry's journey and the specific techniques that led to his transformation. Gerry's experience shows that no matter how long you might struggle with insomnia, it's still possible to break free from the insomnia cycle.
