Sleep Hygiene (Audio)
The Sleep Hygiene audio track is taken from the Psychology Tools For Overcoming PTSD Audio Collection. It is designed to teach the principles of effective sleep hygiene to anyone suffering with insomnia and is a commonly utilized treatment option. This audio track is designed for people suffering from insomnia.
For very good reasons people with PTSD often get into very bad sleep habits – sleeping on the couch with the television on, staying awake all night and only sleeping when day breaks, or using alcohol or drugs to sleep. The Sleep Hygiene audio track is not an exercise, but provides information on what sleep specialists think are important factors in getting a good night’s sleep.
