Rachel's new approach involved being more flexible. She abandoned sleep-related rules and rituals. She practiced building skill in self-kindness and being more present. She opened up and made space for difficult thoughts and feelings to exist. This new approach not only improved her sleep, it also improved her overall quality of life. Listen to this episode
