Improve Your Sleep — Starting Tonight!

“Go! to Sleep” is an online, 6-week program developed by experts at the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic. “Go! to Sleep” applies treatment strategies similar to those used at top sleep clinics across the nation, and “Go! to Sleep” is pleased to announce that you can now benefit from similar treatment. There’s just one difference: it works in the comfort and privacy of your own bedroom.

“Go! to Sleep” works. In a recent study from the University of Manitoba, located in Winnipeg, Canada, eighty-one percent of patients who completed a 5-week online program for the treatment of insomnia reported improvements to their sleep.

Dr. Drerup says about the program.

Your Expert and Personal Coach: Michelle Drerup, Psy.D.

Dr. Drerup is a Sleep Psychologist and Behavioral Sleep Medicine Specialist in the Sleep Disorders Center of the Cleveland Clinic.

“Every day in my practice, I see major improvements — not only in people’s sleep patterns, but also in their lives.”

With “Go! to Sleep,” Dr. Drerup is proud to provide many of the same successful elements from her own treatment strategy for application and utilization in the private home setting.

How Does “Go! to Sleep” Work?

Dr. Drerup employs an approach called “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia” (CBT-I). CBT-I is a therapeutic strategy that helps patients to identify and then reframe specific thoughts and behaviors that are interfering with their ability to sleep deeply. Over and over again, research studies have confirmed that CBT-I improves sleep in 75 to 80 percent of patients complaining of insomnia.

In “Go! to Sleep,” Dr. Drerup teaches you essential stress management skills that help you learn to take charge of your thoughts, your emotions and your environment.

What about Medication?

Dr. Drerup is not a big fan of sleep medications, whether over-the-counter (OTC) or available by prescription only. Medications for insomnia often cause excessive daytime drowsiness, and may be associated as well with inability to think clearly, mouth dryness, blurred vision, and even the possibility of long-term dependence and addiction.

Is Stress Causing You to Lose Sleep?

Stress, depression, and anxiety are thought to be factors in at least half of all cases of insomnia. Stress management is an essential component of learning to improve sleep quality and quantity.

Why Is Sleep So Important?

During sleep, a variety of processes occur to restore our minds and bodies to their normal, healthy baseline. When we sleep poorly, our bodies miss out on the chance to recharge, both physically and mentally. Personal sleep needs do vary depending on the person, and sleep needs vary further with age, stress levels, and general health. It is fair to say that insomnia is a nationwide problem.
