SleepFit

Helps people build better sleep hygiene. Suitable for anyone seeking to improve their sleep outcomes. No contra-indications.

How it Works

SleepFit takes a behavioural and educational approach to sleep hygiene, covering:

  • Types of sleep
  • Causes of poor sleep
  • Creating the optimal sleep environment (with scheduled activities)
  • Substances and sleep (alcohol, nicotine, caffeine)
  • Building a bedtime routine (with scheduled activities)
  • Sleep and stress (with activities to manage unhelpful thoughts)
  • Sleep and exercise

The intervention combines psychoeducation, reflections on current behaviours, and setting up cues for new and improved behaviours.
