Sleep Coach

$169

This course will deepen your understanding of sleep and how to achieve a sound sleep.

You will gain the tools necessary to help people cash in on all the benefits sleep has to offer. A lot of what people search for in their quest for health can be found quite literally under their bedroom blankets. In bed. During sleep.

In this guide you will discover what you need to know to help people get enough sleep and feel energized from sleep. Most people know that sleep is healthy and many people want to sleep more. Yet many struggle to get the rest they desire, or have been misled by the 7-9 hour sleep guidelines for adults.

Because of this wide number range, many people think they are sleeping enough. Yet they drag themselves out of bed and through the day, with a reliance on caffeine and sugar. A cycle develops.

Other people don’t feel that there is enough time to get the sleep they need. It can be challenging to fit sleep in to a busy life. We get this. You get this. It’s something we hear all the time about exercise too. “I don’t have enough time.” The good news is you can help people build sleep awareness and change will follow naturally.

In this guided approach to better sleep, we provide you with a sleep journal to use with your clients and all the science and behavior change techniques you need to coax (and coach) people into better sleep.
