Rethinking Progress During Recovery | Ep 20
Hello, my friends! This one is all about measuring PROGRESS.
When you’re going through insomnia, of course you want sleep more than life itself — that's totally understandable. But let’s be mindful of how we measure progress because one leads to stress, and the other safety.
In this episode, I challenge the conventional measure of progress and introduce a novel perspective:
Progress is better assessed by how one RESPONDS to sleep than the quantity or quality of sleep itself.
What?! Tune in to learn:
- Why relying on sleep as a way to define progress might be holding you back
- How directing attention to our responses brings about profound change
- The goal versus byproduct concept
- Strategies to ease pressure and overcome performance anxiety
Overcoming insomnia is a nuanced journey but it doesn’t have to be hard. (It’s certainly not harder than insomnia itself.)
As you move forward, remember:
- self-kindness is always an option
- celebrating the little things is actually the BIG thing
- progress doesn’t always show up as sleep first
Happy New Year!
