Vivid description on point. Absolutely relate. Dark, lonely strange, zombie, symptoms omgosh I remember these feelings. Still get them from time to time but now I know what it is.. still not always easy to get out. Like a "stuck" ish feeling and when you're out of it you're like...how on earth? What the hell was that. How did I snap out. It's like you were hypnotized while being Wired and or tired and so exhausted.
Cristian is genuinely a kind, compassionate and caring human! We were in another program together and he went out of his way to contact me since he was concerned about my well being. The things we do when we are desperate and with your perseverance and courage you are on the other side! BTW...I do remember you talking about walking your dog around 2am wondering what your neighbors thought. You Rock Coach Cristian!! Thank you🤩
The unnamed sleep specialist who appeared on the Joe Rogan Show, had no robust evidence to support his claims. But neither did the woman who diagnosed Cristian with “severe PTSD”. People, we gotta stop playing with pseudo-science, or at least recognize the limitations of the scientific method… In any case, it’s great to hear that Cristian is now sleeping better.
Hey, I have a question! Lately, I've been doing pretty well with my sleep habits and have not had a bad night in a long time, thanks in part to this channel! However, I've noticed a recurring issue: I often find myself staying up later than I'd prefer, wanting to ensure that I'm sufficiently tired or relaxed enough to fall asleep quickly. While it's not necessarily a problem because I don't experience intense anxiety and generally fall asleep well, I'm frustrated because I'd like to go to bed whenever I want to like I used to before struggling with insomnia. Instead, I find myself staying up late, watching TV or RU-vid, almost waiting to feel really sleepy. I think it's a way to avoid the anxiety of going to bed early when I am not fully relaxed because the fear of not being able to sleep because I'm not tired enough. This pattern has me monitoring my circadian rhythm to ensure I'll be able to sleep at the right time. So, my question is: Should I try to sleep earlier when I want to, even if I'm not particularly sleepy, because I have to wake up early tomorrow or because my roommate is going to bed early, or simply because I feel like this is a good time to go to bed? Or should I continue staying up later than I'd like, as long as I'm sleeping well? Like maybe try to become at peace with sleeping later than I'd like because thats not a problem? Im sure many other people have struggled with this issue so was just wondering what you would suggest!
So happy to hear you are sleeping well. Sometimes waiting for cues before going to bed can make it so the brain now starts monitoring for those cues and that can become a sleep effort. 🙏
Cristian, I bet you're a wonderful coach. The way you choose your words, your deep authenticity and also the way you share about your struggles and growth with such a presence touches and soothes me.

This is such a wonderful success story. I got emotional a few times listening to it. I’ve been there and I get it! I’ve been thinking about becoming a Sleep Coach for over a year now after overcoming my own struggles after 3 years of insomnia. Are there more reviews from sleep coaches who became certified through your program? I would love to learn about their success in terms of creating a business as a professional Sleep Coach upon certification. Finally, is your coaching school accredited? Thank you!
Hi cristian I'm going through a speed bump and a rough time after a pretty good stretch of sleeping well Not as anxious as before, but the mind is absolutely restless and hyperaroused like mad... How did you overcome the feeling of regressing back into the prison? I am still "doing nothing" but yet its tough for me to keep pushing through
So good I listened twice. Lots of identification with Cristian's story. Im ready to leave the struggle but something in me won't quite let go. Sleep immunity program here I come.

Hey there! Your struggles are valid and you're not alone in this journey. Your comment means a lot to us, and we're here to support you. Keep moving forward.
Hello Jesus, just know that your struggle is not unique even though it can feel like it. There is a way out to sleep better and even live better. We are here for you 🙏
Hey Daniel, thank you so much for your videos. It helped me a lot with my insomnia journey 😊 I have a question, do you have coaches from Germany? I maybe would like to join the program and speak to a coach, but my english is not that good.
Anytime 😊! We do have a German speaking coach, Veronika. If you do decide to join, make sure you tell Kathyrene to place you in the Orange team with Veronika!
When we hear the stories we can see there is overdrive gas and break and the nervous system has been disrupted. I been through a divorce with a bully and still have to communicate with him so a lot of difficulties. These stresses cause us nervous system issues hence hormones and so on. Ice baths breathing deep it’s all nonsense because for someone with heightened cortisol levels that needs to be released just canceling some appointments and relaxing the most you can can help bring the system down follow you impulse on what you body says no to and you say yes to. Gabor Mate is wonderful also on trauma stored trauma in body. Daniel certainly helped my sleep. I did end up finding nervous system work also via somatic work and experiencing which many practitioners out there but you want to find the right kind.
Hello Coach Daniel, let me ask, previously I suffered from insomnia for quite a long time, starting around the end of last February. One more thing, I also suffer from hypochondria which might make my insomnia worse, until I found your channel when I was trying to find out what causes insomnia, more precisely when I discovered a disease called FFI and SFI which made me quite panicked and experienced anxiety for days. until I found your playlist which discussed this disease and I decided to watch some videos from your playlist and it was quite helpful in overcoming my anxiety. Until the next few days I felt anxious again because at that time I saw an Instagram post which discussed quite a lot about the impact of lack of sleep, one of which is type 2 diabetes. The reason is, the post explained that lack of sleep can inhibit the production of insulin in the body so that it can triggers the risk of type 2 diabetes. Which makes me wonder whether I am at risk of developing this disease considering that I often experience lack of sleep at night? I hope you read my Comments and replies, Coach😊😊 Thank you and sorry if my English is a bit messy
Hi, some advice from someone who has in the past struggled from insomnia I would not pay attention to anything that invokes fear of not sleeping. Typically any negative side effect is a result of stress, which can be heightened when you are tired. So worrying about not sleeping actually stresses you out more and makes it worse. However if you stop worrying about not sleeping none of these illnesses you have seen online would appear! Hope this helps!
I have struggled with trying to sleep since 2015 and I am very healthy. So, just because you have insomnia, it won't make you get all these ailments. That much I can tell you.
Guys I just lost 90 percent of my fear and enjoy holidays and all that stuff again:) This whole thing is just one big illusion sometimes appearing a bit more real and convincing and sometimes a little less. That’s it
@@leafsleafsleafs2 no why would it be? Insomnia is made up by 3 illusions. Fear of being awake, fear of the next day and the illusion that you are in control of sleep. Without that there is no struggle (all of that including fear of fear btw)
As u see through that, the struggle resolves and better sleep is just a byproduct then but that’s not what it’s about. Insomnia is about these illusions it’s not about how much u sleep actually. There are probably people averagely sleeping less than u but feeling better because they don’t worry.
Hey coach Daniel , My name is Najee I am from Jamaica my insomnia is a bit more severe from others and I very scared my brain is set in this controlling pattern that I can’t seem to get out of it want to sleep but at the same time my brain want to control sleep and it’s driving me crazy my brain continuously plan out what I am suppose to do the following night to sleep it’s always planning and trying to be in control i also struggle with a lot of racing thoughts dealing I cannot think straight can u please help me any advice ?

Hi coach Daniel, I watched all your videos and learnt a lot, I live in Sudan, I can't attend your coaches course but I want to start a business as sleep coach, i can speak arabic and reach wide range of people,I want to help ,can you share some thoughts?❤
Super nice to Hear! Just leave your email on our website where it talks about becoming a sleep coach, then you will be joining our newsletter Sleep Coach Bulletin where we discuss exactly this. Cheers!
Hi coach danil, i subscribed to your newsletter but hear this, I was in speed pump for almost two months after I watched your video about fear of fear, I slept perfectly, for two days now in row.@@thesleepcoachschool8192
I don't see how I could not care about something so essential and ellusive as sleep. I can't remember even what I did an hour ago I am so tired so I am not absorbing what I am doing. All I want is sleep and a working memory. Gratitude for what? I can't live an ordinary life. I will try the program. Is it only available on an app or how does it work? I see testimonials but how do I get the information?
Hi, hang in there and know you’re spot on. Every human cares, everyone wants to sleep well. It’s about becoming just a bit less attached. We can want to sleep and at the same time not be critical of ourselves when we don’t sleep well, we can find readiness to experience what we don’t want and still be kind and gentle with ourselves. You can browse our website for information on both the app and our group based program, you can also email (kathyrene@thesleepcoachschool.com) - she’s our access specialist. Rooting for you

Daniel what are your thoughts on nervous system deregulation due to trauma and upset. This is a pattern with insomnia patients like cfs also. It can be a viscous cycle and breathing can make it worse as you will hear in many brain retraining programs. Hyper vigilance is a symptom of a deregulated nervous system the gas and break model is precise as both the sympathetic system and the parasympathetic system may be running at the same time. So interesting what you share with you success stories this may be going deeper and further then just sleep. You’re helping people regulate their nervous system.

It’s nervous system deregulation that’s why ice baths DO NOT WORK NOR DOES DIET OR ANYTHING ELSE! Literally people have alot of stored trauma or deregulated nervous system Daniels program certainly helps with parts of this for sleep. But it’s all about returning to the self our daily impulses things we repress so much gentle work can be done to regulate the system. Being a parent certainly makes sleep hard for many reasons.
