Why Your Bed Thinks It’s a Coffee Shop - $39
Understanding Why Sleep Gets Hard (and What to Do Next)
A focused, just under one-hour pre-recorded workshop designed to deliver clarity without overload - 40 minutes of carefully curated sleep education that connects the dots and points you to next steps.
If you’re exhausted but alert… You want clarity, not another dead end.
If your body feels ready for bed but your brain disagrees…
If you’ve tried advice, tips, supplements, apps, or even professionals—and still feel confused—
This course is designed to help you understand why sleep gets hard before you decide what kind of help you actually need.
This Is Not a Fix-It Course
And that’s on purpose. Because understanding comes before change—and before choosing the wrong kind of help.
This course does not:
Diagnose sleep disorders
Replace therapy or medical care
Ask you to track sleep, keep a diary, or “optimize” anything
Hand you a sleep hygiene checklist
Tell you what you should be doing
Instead, it gives you something many people never get:
A clear, science-based map of what’s happening in your sleep system—and how to choose the right next step.
Why Sleep Gets Hard (Even When You’re Doing “Everything Right”)
Sleep problems aren’t caused by one thing.
They usually emerge when multiple systems collide—and one starts to dominate the others.
In this course, you’ll learn how three core forces interact:
Sleep Drive – your biological need for sleep
Circadian Rhythm – your internal clock and timing system
Arousal System – the part of you that keeps you alert, vigilant, and responsive
When these systems are balanced, sleep happens naturally.
When one takes over, sleep starts to feel effortful—and effort is the enemy of sleep.
What You’ll Learn in This Course
This class walks you through the big picture, without jargon or overwhelm.
You’ll learn:
The basics of sleep drive and why being “tired” isn’t always enough
How circadian rhythm quietly shapes your sleep (and how it gets disrupted)
The Sleep Triangle: how sleep drive, circadian rhythm, and arousal interact
What happens when one corner of the triangle takes over
Common sleep saboteurs that keep people stuck without realizing it
Why trying harder to sleep often backfires
(including the Chinese finger cuff/sleep trap analogy)
A clear, accessible explanation of sleep-disordered breathing
What it is
Why it’s often missed
When it belongs on your radar
The Sleep Next-Steps Map
How to tell which door to knock on next
Behavioral sleep care, medical evaluation, or other supports
Direction, not diagnosis
