Beating Insomnia With Katelin Gates, RN

Do you suffer from insomnia? While occasional insomnia affects nearly 50% of adults, an estimated 10% of adults suffer from chronic insomnia. Chronic insomnia lasts 3 days a week or more and for at least 3 months. In this episode, I chat with Katelin Gates, a registered nurse and insomnia coach. Katelin shares her 30-year struggle with chronic insomnia, and how she finally found how to get a good night’s sleep consistently. She tried pretty much everything under the sun, nothing seemed to work until she learned a technique that she shares in this episode. Katelin talks about the influence of fear on our brains, and how reactions to sleeplessness can create a vicious cycle of being unable to sleep. She shares how to “trick” your brain into thinking everything is ok, and why this helps us get the sleep we need. Get in touch with Katelin about her coaching program at katelingates.com
