About Restful Sleep in 7 Days Course

This is a self-help course for improving common sleep troubles. There are over 96 different types of sleep disorders, however Insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep) is one of the most common types of sleep troubles that people have.

If you’re an adult, signs that you have not had good sleep quality sleep or enough hours of sleep include:

  • It takes you more than 30 minutes to fall asleep initially
  • You wake up more than once per night
  • It takes you more than 20 minutes to fall back to sleep if you do wake up in the middle of the night
  • You spend less than 85% of your time in bed actually sleeping
  • Nap more than 3 times per day and for more than 100 minutes
  • Spend too much or too little time in Stages 1, 2, 3 and REM sleep

On top of getting poor quality sleep, not getting enough hours of sleep is also an issue. However, just because a person might get enough hours of sleep (for example 7-9 hours for an adult), it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are also getting good quality sleep and are going to wake up feeling refreshed. Someone could get 12 or 14 hours of sleep and still wake up feeling unrefreshed, groggy, and tired as though you could sleep for longer.

What can cause sleep problems? There are many reasons for this including but not limited to:

  • having an existing mental health issue such as depression, anxiety/worry, trauma/PTSD, low self-esteem, stress
  • stressful life events going on (issues with work, health, money, relationships, home life etc)
  • poor sleep hygiene
  • lifestyle behaviours
  • poor nutrition
  • gut health issues

This course is suitable for those whom:

  • have trouble getting good quality sleep or enough hours of sleep
  • want to improve their sleep quality and quantity
  • are aged 13+ years
  • any gender

This course involves the following requirements:

  • an average of approx 15-30 minutes per day
  • Daily access to MindFit Lab via any device
  • A printer (optional)
