I love the way the authors has tried to simplify the process of cbti with the combination of act.

The exercises and the narration are really great. I liked the flexible approach instead of a rigid approach.

I am pretty sure that anyone having sleep issues can put an end to Insomnia struggle after listening and following the contents of this book.

🔹it's an awesome book that includes most important psychological things!
🔹appreciation for book cataloguing at the end.

🔸OTHER CAUSES OF INSOMNIA (feedback & note to listeners, not criticism).
🔹while books scope doesn't involve other non-psychological causes of insomnia, psychology books briefly mentioning them could help direct people who can't fully be helped with psychology/psychiatry alone.

🔸NUTRITIONAL CAUSES OF INSOMNIA
🔹eg. sleep issues like insomnia,night time activeness and day time inactiveness can be caused by iodine, magnesium and other nutritional deficiencies some of which can lead to adrenal insufficiency if not treated.

🔸NEUROLOGICAL CAUSES OF INSOMNIA
🔹neurological cause is another cause too which dr.daniel g amen in his book change your brain,change your life explains that many psychiatrists miss due to not having a protocol of spect scanning their patients brain which can share specific information regarding the functioning of the brain as to what part is over/under/inactive/has other issues where,as it's hard to know with just external tests as symptoms overlap and causes more misdiagnosis' and mis-medication.

🔸BEDTIME PROCRASTINATION DUE TO NUTRITIONAL CAUSES
🔹bedtime procrastination can be caused by the night time activeness, day time inactiveness,
fatigue and pain caused by these and other deficits like vitamin D deficiency cause due to being awake at night than day.

🔸PSYCHOLOGICAL BARRIERS
🔹psychological barriers such as psychologically caused procrastination due to digital addiction or other habits and bedtime procrastination due to nutritional deficiency related symptoms can be exacerbating each other.

🔸ADRENAL INSUFFICIENCY
🔹eg. you fix psychological bedtime procrastination with mind hacks but you still have a deficiency which causes you to expend excess energy just to get simple tasks done and as you force the body the stress just rises, till it can't any more giving you adrenal fatigue.

🔸REFERRING
🔹just mentioning examples of the other causes and referring to other resources is good enough if people want to stay in the topic of their expertise and not overstep (a hesitation of many professionals). so patients also get a more inclusive and integrative treatment.

🔸FEEDBACK
🔹it's just a feedback for psychology authors as to what could be briefly added to sleep psychology books and not a criticism + an explanation for fellow readers to know what else they may be missing.

🔸ROOT CAUSE
🔹people unaware of it might still be helped with this book but they'd be missing the root cause behind it and you can't fix things if the focus on either physiological or psychological is missing when root cause is either of them.

🔸OVERFOCUS ON INCORRECT THINGS
🔹people may get overfocused on Psychology or nutrition or neurology alone when reading books on the topic which might lead to temporary improvement after which the person might think nothing works in long term when cause isn't just one of them.

🔸CATALOGUE PRECISION
🔹precise cataloguing really helped with the audiobook because you could jump to the chapter you remember effortlessly even if you didn't bookmark it,as sometimes bookmarks get deleted if app glitches and it's more steps to get to where you want anyway.

well catalogued & a mind & brain saving insomnia guide!
