Michael the Dentist's video: Sleep Hygiene - a Psychiatrist s Remedy for Insomnia

Insomnia and Sleep Anxiety are potentially dangerous health issues that seem to be completely shrouded in mystery. Psychiatrist Dr. Kent Comeau joins me on the show to discuss Insomnia, Sleep Hygiene routines, and whether or not Cannabis should be used for sleep anxiety issues; he gives us practical advice on what to do when we can’t sleep, and how to train our brains to learn to fall asleep as a matter of habit. Here’s what you’ll learn: 1) What to do when you can’t sleep 2) The power of Environmental Context (i.e. stimulus control) in creating a sleep habit 3) Whether or not Cannabis should be used to ease sleep anxiety and help you fall asleep 4) Sleep Hygiene techniques that work (and that I’ve already started to implement!) I’m sure you’ll get something useful out of this video. Let me know if you have any questions!
