FAQs 

What happens when you don’t get enough sleep?

Not having enough sleep is like dropping a stone in water.  The effects ripple into nearly all areas of your life.  The effects of inadequate sleep can affect you both physically and psychologically, and result in reduced performance.  You might notice that you feel tired, have less energy, are less coordinated, have headaches, experience low mood or irritability, have reduced motivation, negative thinking, decreased self-esteem, reduced efficiency, slowed decision making, confusion, or forgetfulness.

How long will it take to notice the benefits?

While many people report improved sleep within a couple of days of using the strategies, others who have experienced long-term sleep problems may take 4 – 6 weeks before receiving the full benefit.

Will the results of the Get More Sleep Program last?

Yes.  The Get More Sleep Program provides you with all the information, tips, and strategies to allow you to enjoy great sleep forever.  The effectiveness does not wear off over time (unlike prescription sleep medication.)  If at any time in the future you notice that your sleep is again causing you a problem we recommend you review the program again.  You will usually be able to identify what is causing the problem and have the information you need to get your sleep back-on-track.

Do I have to follow the program precisely to get the results?

No.  Every person is different, and that the combination of strategies that may work for one person may not have the same effect for someone else.  As you work through the program we encourage you to experiment with the different strategies and find the right combination for you.  In this way you can think of the Get More Sleep Program as a restaurant menu, all the dishes may be excellent, but you still would not order and eat them all at the same time.

I’ve tried to sleep well for years with no luck.  Is it true that some people are just bad sleepers?

Absolutely not.  There is no scientific evidence that some people are destined for poor sleep.  Believing that you are a bad sleeper, does not mean that you are a bad sleeper.  If you feel this way it simply means that you may not have been using the right strategies to address your particular sleep problem.

Is the program hard work?

With the right information and targeted strategies, making substantial improvements to your sleep does not have to be difficult.  How much benefit you receive from the program will depend on how closely you follow the strategies taught; your willingness to try ideas that may initially seem to be counter-intuitive; and your persistence.  The program provides tips and strategies that can be implemented immediately.  By working through the guidebook you will be able to easily start incorporating the strategies for successful sleep into your life in a short amount of time.

What style of treatment does the Get More Sleep program involve?

The Get More Sleep Program is primarily based on a type of treatment called Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).  This is a type of treatment that is practical in nature, and focuses on changing thinking and behavioural patterns that may be impacting on someone in a negative way. 

Will CBT help me with my sleep problems?

The types of cognitive and behavioural strategies taught in this program have been demonstrated through scientific research to be effective for at least 85% of people who use them.

Are there any hidden charges or costs?

No, there are absolutely no hidden charges on ongoing costs.  The fee for the program is a once off cost that gets you the entire program.  There are no ongoing fees, charges or hidden costs.
