In this episode, we will:Explore the origins of our sleep identityList the common ways individuals decide whether or not they are "good sleepers"Introduce the Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep (DBAS) Scale, and how its components offer insight into the dysfunctional thinking that often characterizes insomnia Contrast the use of the DBAS with the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS)Consider how the ESS helps to identify drive to sleep and what that means to have a high, or a low drive. Strategize how to use elements of the DBAS and the ESS to begin to construct a new foundation for sleep identity, an identity that is one of a good sleeper.Produced by: Maeve WinterMore Twitter: @drchriswinter IG: @drchriwinter Threads: @drchriswinter Bluesky: @drchriswinter The Sleep Solution and The Rested Child Thanks for listening and sleep well!
