1. The harder you try to sleep... the more awake you often become.
It's one of the great psychological paradoxes.
Most people think the solution to poor sleep is to try harder. To relax more. To clear the mind. To somehow force themselves to drift off.
Unfortunately, that's often exactly what keeps the brain switched
on.
I've just published a new article exploring how to use self-hypnosis for sleep in ways that are grounded in psychology, neuroscience and behavioural sleep science.
Inside the article you'll discover:
• Why "trying to sleep" often backfires.
• Practical self-hypnosis techniques to help you fall asleep naturally.
• What to do if you wake during the night.
• How to improve the quality of your sleep rather than simply chasing more
hours.
• Why daytime self-hypnosis may be just as important as what you do at bedtime.
There are no gimmicks, no mystical claims and no miracle cures—just practical, evidence-informed psychological skills that many people can begin using tonight.
If better sleep is something you've been searching for, I hope you'll enjoy reading it.

2. Many people think poor sleep begins when they get into bed.
I don’t.
In this video I explain one of my favourite evidence-based self-hypnosis techniques that helps prepare the brain for healthy sleep before your head even reaches the
pillow.
It’s called creating a Psychological Landing Strip, and it’s a simple exercise that can help reduce mental overactivity and encourage the conditions in which sleep naturally arrives.
