Poor sleep affects nearly every aspect of life—energy, mood, stress levels, focus, and long-term wellbeing. Many people struggle with racing thoughts at night, difficulty unwinding, or an overactive mind that refuses to settle down at bedtime. As a result, they look for natural and mind–body approaches that can support healthier sleep patterns.
One tool people explore is hypnotherapy for better sleep. While not a medical treatment or replacement for clinical care, research shows that hypnotherapy can help quiet mental activity, reduce stress, and support the relaxation response—factors that play a major role in sleep onset and sleep quality (Hawkins, 2023, PubMed).
This guide breaks down how hypnotherapy supports better sleep, what the research suggests, and how beginners can use this approach as part of a healthy nighttime routine.
