Is CBT-I Sleep Training Right for Me?
Here are some common experiences of insomnia that can be addressed through this workshop. If you experience two or more, CBT-I sleep training may help you sleep better.
- Do you have trouble sleeping because you are stressed or your mind is too active?
- Do you feel sleepy at bedtime but then become more awake when you lie down and try to sleep?
- Do you worry about your sleep or how you’ll feel or perform the next day?
- Does your worry or frustration about not sleeping make it even harder to sleep?
- Do you sleep better when away from your own home or bed?
- Do you avoid going to bed because you know you’ll have difficulty sleeping?
- Do you have to take a pill to sleep?
Great sleep is not a mystery.
This 4-hour workshop is based on more than 30 years of sleep science. There are more than 100 published studies showing the power of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) methods for quickly restoring healthy sleep without pills.
In this training, an insomnia specialist will teach you the proven strategies for eliminating poor sleep and training your mind and body for healthy sleep. You will learn everything you need to know to reverse poor sleep, strengthen your natural sleep system, and break down obstacles to healthy, natural sleep.

Rapid Relief - Part 2
What you do when you can’t sleep can make your sleep problem better or worse. Learn exactly what to do when you can’t sleep so you can break the cycle of poor sleep.

Although I thought it was necessary to go into this sleep training with a positive attitude, I have to admit that I was worried it wouldn’t work. I have literally struggled with insomnia for as long as I can remember….I made the decision to actively work on my sleep, because I appreciate how critical sleep is to our overall health. I have to say since I started, I have had more good night’s sleep than I can remember….I am beyond happy about this. I feel better, I am thinking better, I have more patience with everyone, including my kids….

I took the sleep workshop with Dr. Okun. I learned so much and it was comforting to know many other people have the same issue and I’m not alone. Dr. Okun is highly knowledgeable about this topic and made the 4-hour class enjoyable. I’m implementing the strategies I learned and one week into it, I’m sleeping better and feel hopeful I can manage insomnia.
Grace R.
I thought I knew everything there was to know about insomnia after struggling with it for so many years, but not so! After attending a recent workshop led by Michele Okun, PhD, from the Insomnia Clinic in Colorado Springs, I am feeling very hopeful and empowered that I can tame this beast! Michele did an awesome job educating the participants. Thank you, Michele, I’m so glad my primary doctor suggested I attend!

Lots of good, usable and practical information about dealing with and overcoming insomnia. I’ve already implemented the 14-day challenge. While some of the information was known to me (I have researched insomnia for years), much of it was brand new. It helped to be with other people dealing with insomnia and hearing how they’re trying to overcome this issue.
Kevin C.
Ten days after attending a sleep improvement workshop, my sleep has already gotten better. The instructors were very patient and understanding, and gave us great usable tips that are making an impact on my sleep as well as my professional life. I’m looking forward to more improvements!

The presenter, Dr. Michelle Okun, was very professional and yet personable. I greatly appreciated being able to ask questions and to make commentary. She was lively, enthusiastic, and well-informed. It was a wonderful experience. I had to call her today with a question and she responded quickly. I recommend this seminar to anyone with troubles sleeping.
