Sleeping Difficulties

Do you recognise these symptoms:

● feeling irritable or sleepy during the day ?
● having difficulty staying awake when watching television or reading ?
● looking tired ?
● having difficulty concentrating ?
● reacting slowly ?
● having emotional outbursts ?
● drinking excessive amounts of coffee ?

Sleep problems cause more than just sleepiness. A consistent lack of quality sleep can cause accidents, affect relationships, health and mental well-being and will impact on study or work achievements.

These sleep difficulties are caused by other underlying problems the person is experiencing. These often include stress, anxieties or fears, poor sleeping patterns and habits, or the way the brain reacts to sensory input during the normal period of sleep. We take great care in trying to unravel what may be lying behind these emotions and offer appropriate guidance and support.

The five senses – hearing, vision, touch, smell and taste – plus our sense of balance and where our body is in the space around us (proprioception) all contribute to how we learn and develop. How the brain receives, filters, processes and interprets the signals from these senses determines how we perceive reality and how we react, behave and express ourselves. The SAS methods are specifically designed to strengthen sensory processing and improve inter-hemispheric synchronisation and communication. The structured training and coaching programmes improve speech & pronunciation, reading & writing, attention & understanding and lead to better behavioural, social and emotional expression.
