Common signs of insomnia & sleep in Chennai
- Lying awake for an hour or more at sleep onset.
- Waking at 3–4 am unable to fall back asleep.
- A 'tired but wired' state by bedtime.
- Daytime fatigue, low mood, brain fog.
Why most sleep advice doesn't help
Generic sleep hygiene is necessary but rarely sufficient. The active ingredient in clinical sleep work is changing the conditioning between bed, body and arousal — that's what CR-based sleep retraining does.
