Ep. 161: Dr. Jennifer Reid — How to Get the Best Sleep

My guest this week is psychiatrist Dr. Jennifer Reid. We focused on how to fix insomnia, which Jenna and I both treat in our clinical practices. I’ve also been through years of poor sleep due to my health struggles, so I know firsthand what a drag it is when you just want to sleep but aren’t able to. Jenna and I discussed the best ways to get good sleep, and the downsides of many of the common sleep medications. The great news is that most people get a lot of benefit pretty quickly from a sleep treatment called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which we discuss at length. I hope you get a lot out of this discussion, and that it helps you to start sleeping better if you’re dealing with insomnia.
