I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to hear others experiencing some of the same things as me like spending the day worrying about “what if I don’t sleep well tonight again” this actually really helps to calm me and realise it’s a lot more common than you think ❤
Thank you for this great episode. I just purchased two of Dr. Claire Weekes’ audio books and am already listening. Such good information. Very very helpful.
Anytime! And what a great idea, I think I might do the same, I have one of her books and would love to listen to her instead of reading... thanks for being in touch Edda and have a good one!!
Daniel, Daniel, Daniel, this roller coaster that I'm on..... one minute I'm super positive, the next like today I'm soaked in anxiety and tears. When will this end. last two weeks was ok. This week I was so tempted to pop a pill and sleep. Held it in my hands, but decided against it. I understand intellectually, (Im sure i could write a thesis on effortless sleep and acceptance)but emotionally and otherwise, its like the teaching of acceptance just goes through one ear and out the next. One minute I do the healing dance, the next I'm under the bed. I'm just so tired and frustrated of it all..........
BFT! You know, I can tell you’re in a real zigzagging way... and you know, the last thing you said about being tired of it, that can oddly take you to a really good place. If you feel like, done with it, not interested any more, that can truly take you to a place where you’re unattached. Be kind to yourself, even when you’re crying (no, especially when you’re crying and frustrated!) and be in touch... you’ll get there!!
A strange thought in a tired mind...
I read all her books many years ago.
a matter fact i still have them..good books
Oh you came across her work Rudy, nice! Just for fun consider reading a bit now, wouldn’t surprise me if you find new insights that apply to sleep!
@@thesleepcoachschool8192 i remember a lot of her 📚.... some of her methods are similar to yours
@@RUDEMASTER Got it! You know that was what I found too. In fact I was kinda chocked how similar my thinking was to hers. I’ll definitely talk more about her books soon!
Hello Daniel.... besides this one Have done anymore podcasts on Claire weeks???
Hi Rudy!
No, it’s been on my to do list forever, but haven’t gotten to it. This said, you can find many clips of her here on RUclips. Soon I’ll get to it I hope!
Thanks for this great episode! I would like to ask about dealing with noise when sleeping. I wake up very easily, and I usually struggle with noises that I know will happen at a certain time, like a neighbor coming late or someone in the house who goes to bed later or wakes up earlier than me. If it is too loud, it justifies talking to the person making the noise or installing soundproof windows like the person in the episode, but most of the time is anxiety and us trying to be too controlling. I think there is something to say about learning to tolerate normal noises, like people having their own life, without needing to address it with them. Do you have any episodes to recommend or material about that?
SUCH a good episode. Love this.
Nothing is more helpful than hearing from someone who’s lived it 😊
I wake up about 2 in the morning so I get up and meditate I find it helpful
Whatever makes the moment easier I think is the way 😊 thanks for sharing
Hey Daniel, thanks again for inviting me to your RUclips channel. And I do apologize for my blabbering on the show (I guess I was a little nervous as this was my first time being on RUclips). Anyway, keep up the good work and I hope we can get to watch your new video on Claire Weekes soon. Take care!!
Hi Joe! I thought you had very concrete and practical insights. And I think we will soon have some more Weekes fans in the world 😊 I’ll send you an email when that episode (or maybe even a series) is up. Thanks so much for being on a guest and be in touch!!
Hello, chang sir sy dari kuala terengganu.. Sir.
Jau, this was a fantastic interview. Your clarity and ability to articulate your thoughts were really impressive and helpful.
someone actually got healed and not only healed because of claire weekes acceptance way.... He cant get scared of sleeplessness anymore... i know the guy.
yes! he is no longer scared of sleeplessness, that's always the path...And hey, It's a small world!
Can you please do an episode with someone who took time to actually apply the teachings? It’s like everyone has had a light bulb moment and they recovered.
Yes! But it did take long for everyone I’d say, it is just that the episodes are compressed
I am really struggling with acceptance. I feel horrible during the day: headaches, can't think, forgetful, mind stuck in negativity, etc. I don't see how anyone could accept such a state day after day. If I do get a decent night's sleep (which happens once every couple of weeks now), I feel better but I still worry what the next night will bring. Help!
Hi Cindi, it’s not easy… it’s so tricky, but check the unrefreshing sleep playlist including battle scars… hang in there!
@@thesleepcoachschool8192 Thank you, I will check it out!
Oh malaysian….
What Claire weeks books would you recommend for anxiety/insomnia?
I’ve only read one, I think her first one called Hope and help for your nerves, I can definitely recommend it! Do keep in mind that how we look at medications I think has changed a lot!
I have been suffering with anxiety related insomnia for almost 2 years now.
It began in university all of a sudden before my exams I was worried that I was not going to sleep as a result a few of my exams I had to sit through without any sleep.
Now everytime I have a job interview or work I think what if I can't sleep what if I don't sleep as a result for 3days I would go into work with absolutely no sleep at all.
I even do this when I have nothing for the day ahead I will think what if I don't sleep what if I can't sleep.
Ive tried CBT, positive thinking, sleeping pills but they work temporarily. I just want to put a end to the vicious cycle what can I do?
Hi JC,
I’m glad you’re here, you know it’s so rare to find meaningful help… I would say this, anything you try to make sleep happen or to have some control, this will create trouble sleeping… it’s when we abandon trying that sleep happens. This is true even for everything I teach here! If someone goes “I did everything you said but I still don’t sleep”, this shows that there was intent to make sleep happen. This is called a sleep effort. So yes cbti, pills, positive thinking, they can become sleep efforts.
So I think you can find much here that will really help! One episode specifically is 286 where we talk about anticipatory insomnia.
Hope this helps and let us know how things go!
