TESTIMONIALS

IS THIS PROGRAMME FOR ME?

What Elizabeth's sleep clients say ...

Elizabeth's sleep coaching was integrated into the Mindfulness Programme which she ran for a decade at Cambridge University, with outstanding research results (in The Lancet, 2017).

Hear how her sleep clients and sleep course students describe her work.

Sleep is so vital in any kind of work, especially doing a PhD where it can be so easy to lose sight of this

-Doctoral Student

The course actually exceeded my expectations! I found Elizabeth incredibly helpful with so much insight on sleep and the nervous system, it really helped me to grasp what aspects of sleep I have been wrestling with.

Better Sleep Course Participant

Your sleepy meditations have given me back my sleep. I’m sleeping fine now!

Sleep Client

I wish I had done this Mindful Sleep course earlier in my education!

Masters Student

Good sleep is fundamental to be able to study and cope with life properly and many times it’s hard to know how to improve it. This course solves that.

Doctoral Student

My sleep has definitely improved, even after a couple of your online Sleep Support sessions

Elizabeth’s mum

I loved the naps to tune into sleepy feelings. Sleepy feelings are the big takeaway for me from the course. Trying to recognise and describe them better and not see them as a problem. It has expanded my experience of feeling sleepy!

Better Sleep Course Participant

I would like to thank you for your advice with my insomnia, it was extremely helpful and I am mostly back to normal now

Sleep Client

Elizabeth’s focus on dreamwork opened up a whole new dimension – I no longer dread the night, but look forward to going to bed.

Undergraduate Student

The course showed me how better to observe the processes going on in my mind and body and how they have great effect over wellbeing. It’s not just about sleep, but sleep is the biggest aspect of wellbeing worth focusing on.

Course Participant

This course helps you tune into your sleepy feelings. These can help you tune into sleep! Making peace with these feelings can help you find sleep more easily, and has helped relax my attitude to sleep

Better Sleep Course Participant

I felt so alone with my insomnia. Elizabeth’s presence was a life-line. I no longer felt alone with it all. I’ve seen real improvement, and I am now tapering off my sleep medication
