Insomnia Treatment - London Insomnia Clinic

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

When I first came to see Guy I was sleeping three to four hours per night on most nights.  Now I sleep well most of the time and just have the occasional night of poor sleep.  Guy really helped - not just in substantially improving my sleep but in fundamentally changing my attitude towards sleeping and, in more subtle ways, helping me to see my life differently.  I use the “struggle switch” a lot!  On top of that I really enjoyed my sessions with Guy.

Another good sleeper - London Insomnia Clinic

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

“When I first contacted Dr. Guy Meadows at the London Insomnia Clinic I felt I was trapped in a vicious cycle of sleepless nights.  I have suffered from insomnia on and off for many years and exhausted many of the alternative remedies.  You name it, i have tried it Lavender, relaxation cd’s, herbal remedies none of which seemed to help now.  My first consultation with Guy was at the clinic followed by telephone appointments.

Guy’s Mindful Sleep Therapy has given me the confidence to over come my fear of not sleeping and to  stop fighting it.  I feel now if I have a bad night , I am equipped to handle it, thanks to Guy. I would not hesitate in recommending Guy to any one who is suffering from insomnia.”

Sleeping like a baby

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

Hello all,

For those of you who do not know on 30th June 2010 I became a father. So at present I am revelling in the wonder of the event and enjoying every moment I can to be with my beautiful daughter.

My interest in sleep (or lack of it at the moment) also makes her fascinating and as such I have a new blog completely dedicated to documenting this new sleep journey. If you are interested please visit: http://sleepinglikeababy.wordpress.com/

Warm wishes,

Guy

The Guest House by Rumi

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

Dear All,

I hope you are well.  I believe “The Guest House” by Rumi captures perfectly the daily struggle that we all experience in our lives and offers a heartening approach to it.

The Guest House

“This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.”

By Rumi, translated by Coleman Barks with John Moyne

Insomnia Prevention Testimonial

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

“For at least the last year I had problems waking up anytime from 2 to 4am and then not being able to get back to sleep. I find my job stressful at the best of times and not sleeping made things a lot worse. I had tried all the usual things like avoiding coffee, alcohol, using herbal sleep remedies and the occasional prescription sleeping pill but the problem still persisted. I saw Dr Guy for six sessions and his approach has helped me get back to sleep when I wake up. An unexpected bonus has been how the programme has had a positive effect on how I generally deal with other stressful life events”.

Insomnia Testimonial

Thursday, April 8th, 2010
“I have suffered from sleeping problems for several years and this was starting to affect my confidence in relationships. I approached Guy for a one-off session to understand more about what might be driving these problems. After a 90 minute session, Guy was able to provide me with a personally tailored action plan. This plan gave me some tips and exercises to try over a period of time and the promise of a follow-up email after a month. After following Guy’s recommendations, I have started to tackle my sleeping issues from a different perspective and this is helping to give me the confidence that I can move forward. Guy’s advice has not only affected my sleeping - I often follow his thinking to help address day to day anxiety issues as well”. Neya (London)

Insomnia Prevention Workshop Testimonial

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

“I have been a poor sleeper since my first child was born 30 years ago but in the past 10 years this has got worse, often getting very little sleep. I discovered the London Insomnia Clinic through the internet and attended Guy’s weekend workshop which was most enjoyable, worthwhile and informative. The techniques used - the positive approach to life, living in the present moment and using Guy’s Mindful Sleep Therapy have really made a difference. I found this approach to be very helpful in dealing with sleep problems and also very useful in everyday life. I am now enjoying much better sleep and a better quality of life.
Thank you Guy”
