Research shows that depressed people dream much more than non-depressed people, distorting the balance between recuperative slow-wave sleep and energy-burning dream sleep. Clearly, because they spend so much time worrying and imagining, they have far higher amounts of unexpressed arousal to discharge. With so much energy spent on all the excessive dreaming they have to do, they wake up exhausted and lacking in motivation.
It is necessary for people in depression to be helped to challenge their negative thoughts, imagine more realistic outcomes and futures and to find ways to put meaning and purpose back into their lives. This could be through exercise, team sports, doing something for other people, learning a new skill, calling up old friends, and so on. Very often, people who are depressed start to withdraw from their usual routines, stopping going out or phoning or seeing friends, and this makes them dwell on their misery even more. It is essential, therefore, that they are helped to start meeting their emotional needs again, in healthy and satisfying ways. If the depression is due to post-traumatic stress, it is also necessary to stop the traumatic memory from continuing to interfere with life in the present. The rewind technique, a simple, non-invasive method of detraumatisation that all human givens practitioners learn, can achieve this quickly.
Dwelling on and digging up the past is dangerous. Neuropsychological research has shown that this has a physical effect on the brain, strengthening the neuronal connections with misery and negative thinking. We get better at piano or football with practice and, unfortunately, we get better at depression with practice too! So, it really is important to think to the future instead – to learn to shift unhelpful thinking patterns, take back control, find ways to bring meaning and purpose back into life and to look forward with hope.

Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Good quality, restful, restorative sleep is an integral part of mental and physical health. There are all kinds of reasons why sleep patterns may become disrupted. Together we will explore the underlying reasons for poor sleep, and you will learn coping strategies and tools for good sleep hygiene, deeper sleep, how to fall asleep faster and how to get back to sleep when you wake up. Research evidence supports hypnotherapy as a modality for improving deep restorative sleep. We can also address dreams and nightmares, rumination and anxiety, and how disrupted sleep is linked to depression.

The Art of Rest
Life Coach, M.S. Psychology
If the Art of Rest has one major specialty, it is by far and away about sleep.
Dagny is trained as a research psychologist who spent four years studying the biomedical markers of sleep, mindfulness, and self-compassion and understands the ins and outs of what sleep is, how our body is impacted by sleep, and what to do when sleep is elusive. Her tactics range from state-of-the-art sleep science that helps pull out different elements of sleep-health as well as dives into contemplative practices like dreamwork and behavioral routines around sleep and sleep-related anxiety. She is highly successful at helping folks find a restful night, regardless of how long it's been since they've had one.
