Welcome to Sleep Focused.

As this is the first blog post it is the ideal time for me to give you some idea of what my aims are. 

I am not medically trained, but I have over a decade of experience as a Mental Health Nurse and it was during my training in the early 1990’s that my interest in sleep began.

Researchers seem to be constantly highlighting the negative impact that our busy lifestyles are having on the amount of time that we sleep.  Not only that, but it seems that disturbed sleep patterns have become normal for many of us, as modern life continues its seemingly unstoppable intrusion into our relaxation and resting periods.  Mobile phones and their addictive notifications, televisions, stress and coffee are just a few of the reasons why sleep patterns are being constantly disrupted.  My practical tips, advice and information will help you increase the quantity and quality of your sleep.

I will be looking into all aspects of sleep improvement, keeping you up to date with the latest research and reviewing apps and equipment to provide you with practical solutions to some of the numerous issues that surround this fascinating subject.

Sleep well.
