Everyone with on-going insomnia has been told, “if you can’t sleep in 20 minutes, get out of bed”. Most are also told to then, “do something boring”. I don’t like any of this.
There is a much better way to know when it’s time to leave the bed, and much better things to do than boring activities (face it, you won’t do it if it’s boring!). Have a listen to episode 14 of my Sleep On It! podcast to discover the best way to do this most fundamental (and highly effective) part of CBTI!

Thanks for the mention, Michael! Keep the podcasts going — there’s so much value in every episode, and I love your analogies! (I think your harmonica skills are continuing to advance, too!)
