Dramatic improvements! I made many improvements straight away and have had periods where the insomnia completely went away. I discovered that the major hurdle to the insomnia was trust – trust that everything would be okay but more importantly trust in myself – not being able to trust my body or my mind. That deep core switch was so liberating. Outside of insomnia, I have seen many other dramatic improvements. I no longer do people pleasing, guilt, stress when driving, overthinking, stress about not getting enough sleep or sleeping in a different location, perfection, being particularly hard on myself and catastrophising. I know that I am valuable, loved, intelligent and a good mum. I recognise negative thought patterns and stop myself. I used to take sleeping pills everyday. Now I am not even sure when I had my last one!

I now realise that I have the power within myself to heal myself. It has been a wild journey. I am actually grateful that I had such awful insomnia for so long as it took that for me to start finding solutions, which helped me heal in far many more ways than I could have ever imagined.
