We all know how important sleep is to help us function better in our daily lives: to have improved focus, energy, and motivation. But did you know that sleep is also incredibly important for your mental health? Sleep deprivation is associated with an increase in anxiety and depressive symptoms, including an increase in expecting the worst-case scenario. Our culture is massively sleep-deprived and sleep deprivation is often seen as a badge of honor. But the consequences are just not worth continuing to deprive yourself of this essential human need. If you struggle with falling asleep or staying asleep due to anxiety and overthinking, then this episode is perfect for you. In it, we’ll explore practical and simple shifts you can make to get deeper, more restorative sleep so you can function at your best.
In this episode, you will learn:
- The massive mental health benefits of sleep
- Simple daytime tips to help improve your sleep at night
- How to create a calming evening routine so you can get deeper, more restorative sleep

What helps you fall asleep or get back to sleep at night?
I’m sorry for your loss but remember that Our Lord Jesus Christ can bring peace in your heart.
Omg you got a name for this!!!Revenge bedtime procrastination 😮,this is what I struggle with.Thankyou for this video ❤!!!
Good tips, thank you. I’ve been feeling very anxious about falling asleep and not getting enough sleep. What sometimes helps me shut off my brain is setting the timer for a boring tv show and to shut off after 30 mins. I know it’s not a good practice, but it has been helping me turn off my thoughts.
Amazing video! This is very educational. A lot of useful tips and exercises! I can assure you its gonna be helpful for a lot of people who are suffering from insomnia/sleep deprivation
I can’t sleep because I just lost my mother I need help
Thank you for the tips, going to try and implement them all, I have insomnia sometimes I don't sleep for 3 days due to stressful job/anxiety. What helped me was, exercise, taking maletonin and magnesium, stop gaming, and definitely no phone. I want to stop taking supplements so my body will naturally fall asleep. From ur tips I'm gona commit to an early jog before work, get in some early sunlight, reduce my coffe intake, maybe just green tea, and definitely start reading books before bed and jotting down notes. I find myself grabbing my phone constantly and adding things to my calender lol anyway i can write for days I can't sleep lol thanks
I'm glad these tips were helpful and that sounds like a great plan! I hope it helps!
I can't able to sleep due to overthinking and anxiety because of exams and whenever i can't able to talk to my boyfriend my anxiety increases and negative thoughts start comming in my mind. But i don't know how to control these things 😭😔
