    Your sleep itinerary

    Get back to sleep in 6 steps The ThéraSomnia program helps you get back to sleep on a long-term basis. (This is an example, as the order of the steps may differ according to the profile obtained from your intake questionnaire).

    • Je comprends le sommeil

      Etape 1 • Durée 9 jours

      I understand sleep

      This first step will help you understand how insomnia works. You'll learn about the different sleep cycles and their importance for your body. During this stage, you'll discover your first sleep diary to analyze your nights.

    • In this step, you'll discover how your lifestyle influences your nights. First, by creating the right conditions for a good night's sleep. Activities will help you learn to distinguish between fatigue and the desire to sleep. You'll then discover the technique of restricting the time you spend in bed during the second sleep diary.

    • In this step, you'll discover how to positively recondition your sleep through the techniques of stimulus control and bedtime restriction. You will then apply these techniques in the third sleep diary.

    • In this stage, you'll focus on relaxation through various techniques: first, you'll learn the Jacobson method, then the image-refuge and finally mindful breathing. You'll integrate the results of what you've learned into each corresponding sleep diary.

    • This step will enable you to put an end to the beliefs that may be hindering your sleep. The second part of this step will be devoted to night-time ruminations, and finally, your sleep diary will enable you to review the relaxation techniques discussed in the previous step.

    • This step will enable you to continue addressing the psychological aspects that can affect your sleep. In particular, this stage will focus on preconceived ideas and problem-solving before sleep.
