“I have had sleep issues myself. I manage them better mostly nowadays, but intiially they were a shock and realistically my "dealing" with it was awful. A lesson in how not to do it!
I have completed CBTi (insomnia training) and read various books etc. It has all helped. But if i had to pick a route for help, I would pick this course. I thought Stephanie had a great manner, calm but factual and the content was very good. I have watched many of the episodes, many times. It gives a good grounding and understanding, and my opinion is that this should help, even if something like CBTi is also required afterwards for those complex cases or where you wish further help.
Thank you Stephanie, and Maestro for bringing this to me.
I have had made good progress with my sleep, and if I were asked for one thing I would offer, I would say, having a bad night, not sleeping well, is ok. You will manage, maybe not quite as well as normal, but it will be ok. When you understand this emotionally and experience it, it is true. I may have a night thats not so good. Ironically, bad nights have taught me this. When you think you may have a bad night, you need to feel (and beleive), "so what".
For anyone out there struggling, you have my empathy and best wishes, and know, many many people find solutions here.”

“There was some good content, and Stephanie is clearly an expert in the field. However, I found the input frustratingly repetitive, with a lot of time and effort spent in dismissal of less important factors. There was good content, but I struggled to be patient enough to get to it. The photography appeared to be a much higher priority than a tight script. I've encountered Stephanie's input elsewhere, and that was much better. I haven't completed the course, and am very glad I didn't pay for it as a stand alone course.”
