Online Therapy Program for Insomnia Replaces Sleeping Pills

Insomniacs who previously relied on sleeping pills to get a good night’s sleep can now get natural and more permanent relief from the new online Conquer Insomnia program from MySelfHelp.com. This highly effective cognitive-behavioral insomnia program was developed and tested by Dr. Gregg Jacobs at Harvard Medical School, and includes exercises and tools to help insomniacs develop a more consistent pattern of restful sleep.

Step-by-step help instructions people help people:

Overcome common misconceptions about insomnia and sleep
Change negative thinking that interferes with sleep
Develop new habits that promote healthy, restful sleep
Learn relaxation techniques that make it easier to fall asleep
Learn strategies to keep stress from affecting sleep
Eliminate the need for sleeping pills

“Most insomnia is caused by learned thoughts and behaviors that can be unlearned," said Dr. Jacobs. “For example, many people make sleeplessness worse by lying in bed awake, tossing, turning, and worrying — often about their lack of sleep.”
