Stress, anxiety, and concerns can turn on our brain and body&#8217;s alerting response, making it impossible to fall asleep and causing insomnia. In this video I teach one simple skill to turn off insomnia and get yourself to fall back to sleep.<br \/>\nI come by insomnia naturally. My family members are all light sleepers and have a hard time staying asleep in the morning hours. But when I&#8217;m worried, I use the skill of gratitude to calm my brain and fall back asleep. <\/p>\n<p>Looking for affordable online therapy?

I\u2019m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I have worked in various settings of change and growth since 2004. My experience includes juvenile corrections, adventure therapy programs, wilderness therapy programs, an eating disorder treatment center, a residential treatment center, and I currently work in an outpatient therapy clinic.  <\/p>\n<p>In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life&#8217;s direction.<br \/>\nAnd deeper than all of that, the Gospel of Jesus Christ orients my personal worldview and sense of security, peace, hope, and love https:\/\/www.churchofjesuschrist.org\/comeuntochrist\/believe<\/p>\n<p>If you are in crisis, please contact the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at https:\/\/suicidepreventionlifeline.org\/ or 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or your local emergency services.<br \/>\nCopyright Therapy in a Nutshell, LLC<br \/>\n&#8212;-<br \/>\nMusic licensed from www.Bensound.com or Artlist.io<br \/>\nImages from Freepik.com (premium license), Pixabay, or Wikimedia commons<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you want to learn How to Process Emotions and improve your Mental Health?
