      Introduction

      How come I don't sleep well? A lot of people who struggle with getting to sleep or who wake in the night, ask themselves this question. There are certain things a balanced sleeper will do compared to a poor sleeper.

      The 8 major factors that contribute to great sleep:

      Having a feeling of safety to go to sleep.

      Learning to reduce stress and mental overwhelm.

      Avoiding too much light in the lead up to sleep.

      Exercising moderately 3-5 times per week.

      Lifestyle choices.

      The sleep environment.

      Having the right pre-sleep routine.

      What to do when you wake in the night.

      The more of these you get right, the easier and longer you will sleep. Use the Sleep Tools and Seven Cornerstones of Amazing Health to return to great sleep. Quite often all it takes is a small change in one or two areas for a great transformation.

      I remember the first book I read on health and self improvement, it was Anthony Robbins' book- Awaken The Giant Within, it took me 9 months to finish it! It challenged ideas I had and asked me to consider something new, that's not always easy. It's called the 'change barrier' or simply, being uncomfortable. If you think there's a change you need to make, push through the change barrier, don't let anyone, not even yourself get in the way. Challenge yourself to be as empowered as you know you can be.

      Doing what you know is right + discomfort = transformation.

      Stick with it and make a promise to yourself to work at it, until you get the result. Great sleep is never far away, we were all born to sleep well.

      Chapter 1.

      Essential Beliefs of Sleeping Well

      Whether you believe can or you believe you can't, you're right.

      Isn't it interesting, that many people want the new wizz-bang new way of doing things? People have been falling asleep for thousands of years. It is not about new information, it's about returning to what works and following a sound system consistently.

      Let me ask you a question, would it make the most sense to apply all sound strategies just once and write it off, or to trial it consistently for three weeks, to really give it a chance to work for you? Give yourself the chance to get the best results from these strategies. A good sleep cycle is something that is maintained, if you've had a sleep problem for a long time, you very likely already know this. Daily habits will produce long term results.

      An empowering idea might be, to trial the strategies that make sense to you for a period of three weeks, when you find the ones that provide some relief, keep them for life.

      The best coaches in the world will give you a formula. That's for business, relationships and health coaches. They've done all the hard work for you, they present what works, all the client has to do is get out of their own way and do it.

      When the future gold medalist of the Olympics is in training he/she is not just doing what they know, but adding all the useful strategies of the support and coaching staff. Make a commitment today to choose some consistent ways of behaving that will give you a massive probability of success. Stack all the odds in your favour.

      You will no longer be fatigued, struggling to concentrate at work, irritable or depressed, mentally and emotionally overwhelmed. Poor sleep has the potential to strain your workplace endeavours and contributes to relationship breakdown. Often times we just need to make this a priority, to increase the value for great sleep. You don't have to give anything up to sleep better again, in fact by prioritising looking after yourself, you will get more of what you really want; to be more present in your relationships, to be more focused at work, to feel great and enlivened, to be active and not sedated all the time. You will add value to every area of your life by making sleep a priority.

      Would you agree that when you place a higher value on getting quality sleep, that it will in fact increase the quality of your life? The good news is, what it takes to get great sleep again, may be easier than you think.

      It is true that there is no new information out there, it's all been done before and it's all been written before. My job, my MISSION is to inspire you to do, what you know you need to do and give you new tools for AMAZING health and long, restful sleep.

      My job is to inspire people to do boring things, to make health one of the highest priorities in their life. If improving a person's sleep is not one of their highest priorities, no one can help them. They will not honour themselves when it counts. They will find something else to sabotage it. The cause of sabotage is a values conflict.

      They may let work pressures stop them getting that success, they might let friends and family get in the way of their health, AND that's totally ok. If they decide work or other people are going to get in the way of their health, that's their choice and that's perfect. But you have made a different choice for yourself today, you have decided it's time to look after you first and put a higher value on sleeping well.

      Of course, how much can you really give to work and family when you're a wreck from constantly bad sleep? In the short term, taking some time to get yourself back into balance means, they may miss out on you for a little while. When you get it right, they will be glad to get the full you again. What if I could show you a way where you don't have to change too much time wise to get better sleep? You will discover how to make a few small changes and still keep what is important to you.

      You don't have to give up one thing to get another, you can have it all. What works is tried and tested, it's all been done before, much of what works is foundational and takes time. For all the wizz-bang people who want it NOW, there is something for you too.

      My promise to you is, when you apply every safe and sensible suggestion in this book, you will notice a massive change in your sleep quality.

      How much of a priority is better sleep to you? I met an extremely successful man today, people know him as a man who delivers, no matter what. The creed he lives by is this. "When I promise something, one of two things
