Sleep is not optional. Kerry Davies, The Sleep Fixer, explains why sleep is an ancient biological process, why modern life disrupts it, and how understanding your body can help you rebuild trust in sleep.

A piece in Yahoo News this week is getting attention for suggesting scientists are changing the way they understand insomnia. It's worth reading. But there's something more important that isn't being said clearly enough. CBT and CBT-I are not the same thing. Most people don't know this. And that one piece of confusion is keeping a significant number of people stuck. CBT — Cognitive Behavioural Therapy — is designed for anxiety and depression. It works on thoughts and emotions

I was recently featured in Country & Town House discussing the rise of “dark showering” and whether it actually supports sleep. It’s something I genuinely love seeing more of. Not because any one trend is the answer, but because it’s opening up conversations about how sleep actually works. Featured Insight: Dark Showering & Sleep In my recent feature in Country & Town House, we explored how darkness and temperature can support the body as it prepares for sleep. Darkness plays

Sleep advice is everywhere. You might have heard to optimise your light exposure, track your sleep cycles, take magnesium, or try glycine. Maybe you’ve been told to avoid caffeine after midday—or is it after 10 a.m.? Some suggest getting a cold room, using a weighted blanket, practicing the 4-7-8 breathing technique, or trying yoga nidra. Others say journal before bed, then contradict themselves by warning that journaling activates your brain. None of these tips are necessari

After a rough night of sleep, the natural reaction is to stay in bed longer. It seems logical: your body is tired, and extra rest should help you recover. The bed feels like a safe haven, and facing the day without enough sleep can feel overwhelming. Yet, this common response often backfires, turning a single bad night into a recurring pattern of poor sleep. Understanding why staying in bed longer after a sleepless night can make things worse is key to breaking this cycle and

Sleep troubles often start with a clear event—a stressful period at work, illness, or a major life change. For many, sleep shifts from a natural, effortless process to a problem that demands fixing. This shift can trap people in a cycle where trying harder to sleep only makes sleep difficulties worse. Understanding why this happens is key to breaking free and restoring restful nights. When Sleep Becomes a Problem to Solve Many people who struggle with long-term sleep issues c

If you have ever found yourself lying awake at night, wondering why you can’t sleep even when you’re trying everything, you are not alone. Many people struggle with sleep without realising that the harder they try, the more elusive rest becomes.

A calm bedroom setting promoting natural sleep Why Trying Harder to Slee

Most of us grow up believing that if we get our 7–8 hours of sleep, we should wake up feeling refreshed, energised and ready for the day.But what happens when you are hitting those hours… and still feel completely exhausted? This is exactly what happened to “Eddie,” a client in his mid-40s whose story highlights one of the most misunderstood sleep problems out there: poor sleep quality and undiagnosed obstructive sleep apnoea. This blog takes you through Eddie’s journey — the

Have you ever woken up on a Saturday morning at your usual weekday time, even when you didn’t have to? It’s tempting to groan and roll over, but in truth, this is a really good sign. It means your circadian rhythm (your internal body clock) is working exactly as it should. Your circadian rhythm quietly runs in the background, regulating far more than just your sleep. It affects your energy, appetite, digestion, and even mood. Just like your body learns when to expect breakfas

After just a week of enforced rest, life has slowed right down for me. I can’t physically do much, so I’ve been observing more , and it’s made me notice just how fast-paced our lives have become. One evening I was watching Unspeakable and there was a man with a typewriter, slowly filling in a form. It pinged something in me: the sheer difference between then and now. What once took hours, maybe days, now happens in seconds thanks to digital systems and AI. We celebrate the co

It is usual that over Christmas the circadian rhythm, known as ‘the body clock’, can stray. The body clock controls the sleep/wake process and is established over time and will await cues/routines to be able to become an automatic process. In holidays it is very common for sleep and wake times to be different, later or in fact earlier. What can you do about it? Well, the best idea is to keep a consistent sleep time based on what time your child is currently falling to sleep.
