These findings suggest that #CBTi is more cost-effective than other treatments or no treatment for adults with #insomnia. It may bring more economic benefits in the long-term, especially in long-lasting efficacy and costs reduction. ow.ly/I1Av50ShgWp #sleep

During the Summer School Neuroscience of Dreaming and subsequent International Association for the Study of Dreams Conference, we came up with a short questionnaire on the background of sleep and dream researchers.

This article outsides CBT-I so well. #cbti #insomnia #sleep

Thomas Edison had such a flexible mind

Trauma recovery is largely about caring for the version of ourself who existed in the past, w/ compassion & forgiveness-- and supporting the version of ourself who will exist tomorrow, w/ mindful decision making & intelligent self-care.

We can't just tell our nervous system "we're safe now," & have it stick. We need to show our nervous system, again & again, we're serious about creating personal safety-- by refusing to attack, shame, or abandon ourselves, even when our old conditioning is pressuring us to do so.

I am keeping an eye on The Veterans' Health Care Eligibility Reform Act of 1996. If this act is ever on the chopping block it would have a profound impact of Veteran care, eligibility to benefits, quality of care and cost to Veterans.

In polarizing conversations, it’s hard not to feel threatened and cling to being "right." I’m seeking a softer, compassionate way to hold pain and #beauty. 🌍 #Healing comes from accepting both suffering and grace. Grateful for a reflective #walk in #nature today.

I’m a therapist but I’m a social worker first and listening to discussions about cutting programs that benefit people (that many rely on and pay into) as if it’s wasteful is maddening. Crisis is always wasteful. #supportpeople

Tell state and federal lawmakers to #DitchDST and restore permanent #StandardTime for #SleepHealth! savestandardtime.com/action/

𝚑𝚊𝚗𝚗𝚊𝚑 𝚐𝚛𝚒𝚏𝚏 Daylight doesn’t change. People think standard time is dark because they only experience it in winter. Winter days are short and dark, that’s just winter and no manner of clock manipulation will change that.

This summarizes why people believe they want permanent daylight savings time instead of permanent standard time despite the medical community strongly supporting the latter. No matter how we slice it the winter months are too dark but a shift makes it worse.

Myself, and everyone in the sleep medicine field, does not support permanent daylight savings. I realize certain businesses would have more profit under DLS- I would also have more clients- but I prefer prevention and supporting health. #savestandard #peopleoverprofit

We are so close to 10 hours of sunlight in the NY metro area 🙌 🎉 Morning light is so important but not having enough to spread through the day isn’t the most enjoyable part of the year. Welcome to the days of increased daylight! 🌞

Medicaid is a lifeline for babies and children. Cutting it is a direct threat to their health and future #ProtectMedicaid #HandsOffMedicaid #SaveMedicaid #HandsOffOurMedicaid
