We take sleep for granted. And it's easy to assume that our patients have trouble free sleep. But when you look at the stats of people suffering with disrupted sleep, we're going to have a number of people on caseload struggling with sleep. And that number goes way up if you're treating patients struggling with chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia, headaches, etc. The biopsychosocial model has been making more and more inroads into how we look at our treatment strategies, which is great. But, sleep health can often be forgotten. Patients struggling with disrupted sleep are going to have issues with memory and learning, motivation and mood, along with decreased healing and general immunity. Just think of how you perform after a night of poor, fragmented sleep. Now imagine your patients who may be experiencing multiple nights awake of disrupted sleep. From my experience, patients are looking for more than general sleep hygiene tips. And more often than not, this basic knowledge doesn't translate into any meaningful lifestyle change. What I discovered was that sleep education focused on the healthcare clinician was sparse. I wrote a book and created a set of resources that empowers you with the knowledge and tools to help your patients improve their sleep. The book is meant to be easy-to-read and digest. It's broken down into 9 chapters: Chapter 1: When Sleep Goes Wrong Chapter 2: Understanding Insomnia & Other Sleep Conditions Chapter 3: Drug Effects on Sleep Chapter 4: The Dance Between Sleep & Pain Chapter 5: Understanding Sleep Chapter 6: Evaluating Sleep Chapter 7: Insomnia Management Chapter 8: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) Chapter 9: Conclusion & Next Steps
