Tips For Better Sleep When Your Child is Misusing Drugs or Alcohol, with Brenda Zane
ABOUT THE EPISODE:
When our sleep goes, everything goes with it. I have yet to talk with a parent who's getting good sleep while their child is misusing or addicted to drugs or alcohol - so this is a hugely important topic.
This episode covers:
- the mindset you need to adopt to have a chance at sleeping well
- a short, recorded meditation to help you sleep
- 5 serious health risks associated with not sleeping enough
- rituals that will help your body automatically know it's time to sleep
- tips and tricks to try when all else fails
EPISODE RESOURCES:
- The Sleep Guide - companion to the podcast
- Sleep meditation for parents of addicted children (Insight Timer)
- Health risks from not sleeping well or enough
- Sleep and obesity
- Driving accidents
- Cold feet/wearing socks to bed
