Date: June 25, 2019 DescriptionWe all understand the importance of sleep, yet we frequently fail to address it in treatment. Your clients suffering from PTSD, anxiety, despair, and chronic pain are dealing with symptoms of those illnesses, which are exacerbated when they are unable to sleep.
Do you know what to do if your clients aren’t sleeping?
In this audio, I’ll demonstrate the practical, time-tested approaches I’ve created over the last decade for optimizing your customers’ sleep – without drugs! These tactics do not require you to be a sleep specialist to employ in your workplace.
Discover evidence-based ways for assisting your clients in increasing their energy throughout the day, sleeping more deeply, and resuming sleep once it has been interrupted. You’ll also learn how to effortlessly incorporate these tactics into existing trauma, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain therapy.
