Beatrix Schmidt

Hello and welcome to my Podcast Guest Profile

I'm Beatrix A Schmidt, sleep coach for adults, author of Sleep Skills for Life and The Sleep Deep Method®, founder of The Sleep Deep Practice Ltd.

I struggled with long-term insomnia in my mid-twenties, not being able to fall asleep for hours, tossing and turning in bed in the middle of the night, often waking up at night with nosebleeds because that is how exhausted my body was. Then when my alarm woke me up in the morning, I was dreading the day knowing that I won't be able live a truly fulfilled live because of the constant tiredness I was feeling.

My journey to sleeping well consistently started with my pursuit to finding out what was 'wrong with me' and why I wasn't able to sleep well again. The more I learnt about sleep and what actually helped me to overcome my sleep struggles, the more fascinated I became of how sleep works.

From holistic principles to sleep science, the puzzle pieces of what helps great sleep to develop started to come together, For the last 10 years I've had the privilege of working with great clients across the world to teach them what I learnt. Client after client I taught them how they can also overcome long-term and more severe sleep problems or insomnia through developing practical, personalised and effective Sleep Skills for Life.

These Sleep Skills in turn helped them to fall asleep easily, sleep through the night without wakings and wake up energised every morning. But most importantly they worked with who the clients were with the unique personality traits, the way their body and mind worked in practical way.

The greatest gift of my career is to see clients sleep well for years after our work, and reach out to tell me how great quality sleep consistently have changed their life for the better.

With access to countless resources on the topic of sleep; tips, advice, hacks, secrets, gadget, lotions and potions, it should be so easy to sleep well consistently every night. But the reality for millions of people across the world is that most general things don’t work at all or provide inconsistent results at best, and the sleep struggle continue.

My goal is to help people across the world to get a better understanding of how they can also develop Sleep Skills that will always support them to sleep well consistently.
