In this episode, I talk about the role of self-help and spiritual books during insomnia recovery. If you’ve ever found yourself feeling hopeful at the start of a book — only to end up confused or uneasy later on, you’re definitely not alone.

I’m sharing some of my personal reflections on this, along with a few things I learned that helped me relate to books and teachings in a way that felt less confusing.

There’s also a subtle trap I noticed, especially when it comes to spiritual concepts — something that might be worth watching out for if you’re on this path.

If you’ve been feeling a bit lost in all the information out there, I think this might bring some clarity 💛

You’re sleeping better. You’re less afraid. But the thoughts about insomnia… they’re still there. Why? In this episode, we talk about one of the most common and confusing phases of recovery: when the struggle feels lighter, but your mind is still consumed by it. You’ll learn:

• Why lingering thoughts about sleep don’t mean you’re doing something wrong
• How the “aftertaste” of insomnia fades (and why it takes time)
• What to do when recovery feels like a whisper in the background
• How to stop trying to eradicate thoughts and start living with more ease

Whether you’re in the early shifts or nearing the end of your journey, I hope this brings some clarity ❤️
