Do you wake up in the middle of the night, stare at the ceiling, and mutter—"Not again"? Maybe you've tried the teas, the blackout curtains, the apps, the influencers' rituals. And yet… still awake. If so, you're in good company. I've specialized in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) for over 10 years, and I've seen this exact pattern hundreds of times—in clients who now sleep soundly.
