Certain lifestyle behaviors, such as napping, caffeine consumption, late-night use of electronic devices, and a host of other bad habits, can make falling and staying asleep difficult. Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia focuses on halting these behaviors and replacing them with good ones, such as practicing sleep hygiene, stimulus control, sleep restriction, and relaxation techniques. Implementing these changes can take time, but the end result is better quality sleep. In this clip, Dr. Ashley Mason describes elements of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia.
