Adrenaline Surges Jolting You Awake? How to Free Yourself Have you ever been jolted awake by a sudden rush of warmth, heart palpitations, a pounding in your head, or a sudden sense of alarm? If so, you’ve been experiencing what we call insomnia adrenaline surges. In this episode of Insomnia Insights, we are diving deep into the science and psychology behind these rushes. This is the resource you need to understand why they happen and, most importantly, how to let them fade away so you can get back to peaceful sleep.

Inside This Episode: The Two Most Common Timings: We break down the "Wake-to-Sleep Transition" surge and the "Middle of the Night" jolt.

The Brain vs. The Adrenals: Why your adrenal glands aren't the enemy—it’s actually about how your brain perceives a "threat." The Loop of Hypervigilance: How fearing the surge actually creates more surges.

The 3 Levels of Befriending: A step-by-step approach to teaching your brain that being awake is not a danger.
