COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY• Relaxation Training

• Stimulus Control

• Sleep Restriction Therapy

• Timed Bright Light Exposure

• Education in Realistic Expectations

‐used singly or in combination

Relaxation Techniques• physical and mental relaxation

o relaxed breathing and body awarenesso pleasant mental imagery

• self-hypnosis, meditation

• biofeedback

• music

Sleep Restriction Therapy• used for fragmented, interrupted sleep

(problems with sleep maintenance)…especially when coupled w/ excessive time in bed

• ACCEPTS mild daytime sleepiness as atemporary side effect

• might take 6-8 weeks, often less

• probably retrains circadian/ultradian rhythms

2/29/2016

13

Procedure for SRT Chose a realistic, restricted time in bed

Establish wake-up time, then calculate bedtime

Plan activities thoughtfully

Expect temporary difficulties

Log sleep

If TIB is aggressively restricted, extend time in bed gradually in 15 min increments when sleep efficiency > 90%

Get the clock out of sight! Individualize!

Sleep Restriction Therapy: Pre and Post

Calculate average Time in Bed, average Total Sleep Time  use these to choose new restricted Time in Bed

2/29/2016

14

Contraindications to SRT• ANY other primary disorder of sleep until treated  

(e.g., sleep apnea)

• Major depression or other acute or severe psychiatric disorder, until treated

• Circadian Rhythm Disorder

• Shift Work Sleep Disorder

Timed Bright Light Exposure• resets circadian clock

• establishes new circadian phase

• time of exposure critical

• must be daily initially

2/29/2016

15

Timed Bright Light Exposure

Be outdoors as early as possible after waking up in the morning for 30 min.

The activity does not matter and you can be in the shade. Just getting your eyes exposedto ambient outdoor light is all that’s needed.

Start with 7 days a week. You may be able to cut back when things are stable to maybe 4-5 times / wk.

Thoughts About Insomnia It’s a chemical imbalance I can’t control it I can’t function the next day I must get 8 hours every night A bad night predicts more bad

nights I’ll get really sick When I don’t sleep, I need to

stay in bed more

The Problem?

My experience?This is by far the most common perpetuating factor in insomnia.

Mr. Dim’s Treatment PlanBedtime 9 pm w/LO.  SOL = 45‐60 minutes.  Sleeps thru ‘til 6 am “30% of time” (wakes 1 h before alarm).  Usually wakes 2:30‐3:30 w/2‐3 hrs. to get back to sleep.  Alarm at 7 am.  No naps (except weekends).
