Emergency University - Tools for Better Sleep

Tools for Better Sleep Training Package

Good sleep is essential to everyone. Studies show that individuals who get more sleep are healthier, lose weight more easily, learn faster, retain more information and are happier than those who do not get enough sleep. Yet, poor sleep is pervasive in society, from the night shift worker who must sleep during daylight hours, to the overly tired mother whose anxiety keeps her awake at night, to the teenager whose natural sleep tendency just doesn’t seem to fit society.

Our sleep program will provide you with an understanding of how much sleep you need and how to maximize the quality of your sleep. The program is composed of 7 modules and takes approximately 1 and ½ hours to complete. The first module, The Basics of Sleep, reviews the basic principles of your biological clock and the circadian rhythm that drives your sleep and awake cycles. Over the course of the next 6 modules you will learn about the stages of sleep, sleep debt, strategies for good sleep and special situations like drowsy driving and the night shift worker.

Here is what our customers say:

“As a truck driver, being alert on the road is important. I was able to use the sleep techniques your program provided in my everyday life to improve my sleep. It has only been a couple of weeks since I completed your program, and I already feel more alert and awake behind the wheel. Here’s to a good night’s sleep!”

More Information:

Understanding how lack of sleep affects us is important to developing the necessary motivation to improve our sleep habits. Nowhere is sleep more important than in the transportation industry where fatigue often translates into serious injury and destruction of property. Drowsy driving costs millions of dollars in accidents and much more in human tolls.

This sleep program was developed to provide you with an understanding of how much sleep you need and how to maximize the quality of your sleep. The program is composed of 7 modules and takes approximately 1 and ½ hours to complete.

This multi-media interactive program can be reviewed all at one time or over several sittings, and is loaded with insightful pearls designed to help you get better sleep. Many of the instructional charts are printable so that you can take their guidance with you to wherever they will be most useful, to the kitchen, the car or to read over and over again while trying to incorporate the principles into your lifestyle.

The first module, The Basics of Sleep, reviews the basic principles of your biological clock and the circadian rhythm that drives your sleep and awake cycles. Over the course of the next 6 modules you will learn about the stages of sleep, sleep debt, strategies for good sleep and special situations like drowsy driving and the night shift worker.

Some of the issues we discuss include: What should I eat before bedtime to get a good night’s sleep? Should I work out close to bedtime? I work the night shift. How do I spend time with my family on the weekends, and still get enough sleep? What should I do when I find myself nodding off while driving? Does alcohol affect me differently when I’m tired? Does the amount of sleep I get affect my ability to learn and retain new information?
