Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Made Practical - CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I), Made Practical
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is a multi-component behavioral program that addresses the habits, thoughts, and patterns that perpetuate chronic insomnia. Multiple meta-analyses show it outperforms sleep medication for long-term outcomes and produces lasting improvement. It is the first-line recommended treatment for chronic insomnia — though it is more demanding than a pill and works best with a qualified therapist or guided program. - The Pre-Sleep Worry Buffer
Use a 10-minute afternoon or early evening worry review to protect sleep from nighttime rumination.
Worry Time: Containing Anxiety With Scheduled Worry - Metacognitive Therapy, Made Practical
Metacognitive therapy (MCT), developed by Adrian Wells, targets not the content of negative thoughts but the beliefs people hold about thinking itself — particularly the beliefs that worry and rumination are useful or uncontrollable. By changing these meta-level beliefs, MCT aims to stop the prolonged self-focused thinking styles that maintain anxiety and depression. A growing body of randomized controlled trials supports MCT as effective for GAD, PTSD, depression, and social anxiety, with some studies showing superiority to CBT.
