Insomnia Insight #505: How to sleep WELL...

Daniel Erichsen
About this episode

In this edition of Insomnia insight we review what we are trying to block using ear plugs or a sleep mask when we've had sleep struggles.

We learn that although sound and light sometimes can be blocked using barriers, this is not true for the emotions that come from how we may think about the sound or light.
