As you may or may not know, I developed a stand-alone (no gadget required) app for smartphone in 2013 called Sleep On Cue. It is based on a scientific technique called intensive sleep retraining, developed by sleep researchers in Australia, and my app is a home version of it.
In episode 22 of my Sleep On It! podcast, I describe the process of intensive sleep retraining, based around repeated short sleep trials. It’s basically a way to practice falling asleep and reverse the conditioned response of becoming alert when going to bed that many people with insomnia feel, and it can also be a great supplement to a course of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTI).
I invite you to check out my Sleep On Cue app on the Apple App Store store!

Hmmmm, I have sleep insomnia for over 50 yrs. I just saw this and will give it a try. Here’s to hoping something works.
Thanks TJ, please do let me know how it goes. It’s a different sort of app.
