The #1 Way To CURE Insomnia Without Drugs
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is considered by sleep experts to be the first line of defense for insomnia. Which means, if you see a sleep doctor, they are more likely to recommend a six week course in CBT-I than write a prescription for something like Ambien.
While it can seem a little daunting to start, research has shown CBT-I to be more effective at curing insomnia than medication, and it usually lasts much longer, too.
In this video, join Adria as she explains what the CBT-I process looks like, how you can get started, and what to do if a therapist is not accessible to you. Also joining us in this video is Dr. Brandon Peters, a board-certified neurologist and sleep expert, and Dr. Michael Breus, a board-certified clinical psychologist and sleep expert.
