Sweet Slumber
Restoring Your Sleep and Reclaiming Your Nights Using CBT-I
“I totally get it!”
There is nothing quite as draining as lying awake at 3:00 AM, watching the clock tick, and wondering how you are going to survive tomorrow’s schedule on an empty tank.
For midlife women, insomnia is rarely just “a bad night’s sleep.” Hormonal shifts, heightened stress, and a mind that refuses to quiet down can create an irritating cycle of being perpetually “tired, but wired.” Over time, the bedroom stops feeling like a sanctuary and starts feeling like a battleground. This is not what any woman wants.
The good news? Chronic insomnia is not something you just have to accept as an inevitable part of aging. Sweet Slumber is a structured, evidence-based therapeutic group that utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—the gold standard, non-medication treatment for sleep disruption—to help you reset your body’s natural sleep drive and finally get the rest you need.
What We Explore in the Circle
In this small, highly supportive group therapy setting, we cut through the generic advice (“drink chamomile tea,” “turn off your phone”) and focus on proven clinical tools to help you:
- Rewire Sleep Anxiety: Break the frustrating cycle of worrying about sleep, so getting into bed triggers relaxation instead of dread.
- Master CBT-I Behavioral Tools: Learn concrete techniques to consolidate your sleep, helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
- Tame the 3 AM Racing Mind: Practice evidence-based strategies to quiet midnight catastrophic thinking and physical restlessness.
- Navigate Hormonal Sleep Disruptions: Address how perimenopausal night sweats, temperature shifts, and anxiety impact sleep architecture.
- Build Your Personal Sleep Roadmap: Create a sustainable, customized sleep routine that works for your body and lifestyle—without relying on quick fixes or endless supplements.
