SUMMARY:Sleep\, Insomnia and Wellbeing: Historical Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Sleep and the Rhythms of Life Network\nSleep\, Insomnia and Wellbeing: Historical Perspectives \nSpeakers: Brigitte Steger and Megan Leitch \nPart of the Sleep and the Rhythms of Life Network Seminars \nThursday 29 February 2024\, 5.15pm \nOnline and In-person event \nNo booking required for in-person attendance \nRegister via Eventbrite to join the seminar online \n  \nAbstracts: \nBrigitte Steger (University of Cambridge): “At night I lie in bed but cannot sleep” – Insomnia and loneliness in early Japanese literature  \nIt is easy to think that the widespread problem of insomnia today is due to the stress of our hectic lives and the 24-hour nature of our societies\, whereas in pre-industrial times people naturally went to bed when it got dark and got up with the sun after a sound night’s sleep. However\, Japanese literature of the Heian and Kamakura periods (9th to 14th century) depicts men and women of the nobility spending many hours awake at night—on duty at the palace\, sitting on verandas admiring the moon\, receiving visitors\, taking turns to tell stories\, playing music\, travelling on pilgrimages and in a myriad of other settings. Besides such voluntary sleeplessness\, the aristocratic men and women of the capital Heian (present-day Kyoto) suffered from insomnia. Complaints about sleeplessness due to uncomfortable beds\, extremes of temperature\, communal sleeping arrangements and houses that provided little protection against the weather and intruders\, however\, are all noticeable by their absence. The cause of their insomnia was overwhelmingly emotional. In this presentation I will demonstrate how it was the death of a parent\, an emperor’s illness\, the absence of close friends and family and—above all—neglect by a lover that robbed people of their sleep\, and how in poetry\, novels and literary diaries\, a reference to one’s inability to sleep could also be employed metaphorically to express depth of feeling and aesthetic sophistication. \n  \nMegan Leitch (Cardiff University): ‘Sleeping it Off: Sleep\, Wellbeing and the Emotions in Middle English Literature’ \nThis paper explores the interrelations of sleep\, wellbeing and the emotions in later medieval English literature. In the humoral theory of the body\, in which health and well-being were determined by an individual’s fluctuating economy of liquids with emotional attributes\, sleep had a powerful role to play in generating balance by transforming food into the four humours during digestion. Thus\, while sleep was important for physical health\, sleep was also significant for mental health\, offering relief from the ‘unhealthful’ humours of melancholy and choler. While medieval mentalities did not distinguish mental health from physical health in the same terms we do today\, in pre-Cartesian conceptions of the interrelations of mind and body\, holistic views of health meant that the implications of a bodily act such as sleep for emotional well-being were well recognised. Although this scientific paradigm was shared across medieval Europe\, the literature of medieval England engages with it in distinctive ways. \nAs a form of sorrow-making and anger-management\, sleep shapes subjectivities and judgements in English romances\, cycle plays\, and dream visions. Attending to the ways in which sleep parallels\, as well as differs from\, swooning as an expression of strong emotion in medieval English representations helps to deepen our understanding of the emotive scripts to which these two forms of unconsciousness contribute. Here\, sleep both offers treatments and bodies forth truths about individuals that are culturally determined.

DESCRIPTION:Sleep and the Rhythms of Life Network\nDisordered Sleep\, Past and Present\nPart of the Sleep and the Rhythms of Life Network events\nWednesday 22 November 2023\, 5pm\nOnline and In-person event\, Seminar Room\, Radcliffe Humanities\nNo booking required for in-person attendance \nRegistration for online attendance\, please follow the link \nAbstracts: \nMartin Willis (Cardiff University): Sleeping Beauties: Victorian Representations of Disordered Sleeping \nWhat impact did the fairy tale of sleeping beauty have on the emerging science of sleep in the Victorian period? In this talk I will investigate the entanglement of the fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty with sleep medicine as well as popular media representations of unusual sleeping. As I will show\, sleep disorders illuminate a series of representations of sleep that bring the physiology of the human body into intimate correlation with socio-economic power. \n  \nMelanie Fleming (Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences\, University of Oxford): Sleep and recovery after brain injury \nHow can we harness the sleeping brain for learning? In this talk I will talk about the importance of sleep for learning and memory. I will discuss the impact of brain injury\, such as stroke\, on sleep and ways to improve sleep processes. \n  \nFor further information click here \n

SUMMARY:Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia course
DESCRIPTION:For: Registered Health Care Professionals\nDuration: Two days\nCost: £645 / delegate\n  \nhttps://thesleepcharity.org.uk/cognitive-behavioural-therapy-for-insomnia-cbt-i/ \n  \nWe are delighted to be able to offer the Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) course in partnership with sleep expert Professor Jason Ellis\, professor of Sleep Science at Northumbria University and director of the Northumbria Centre for Sleep Research. \nThis introductory course is aimed at registered health professionals with a good standing in their field of expertise (e.g. HCPC)\, who have an interest in psychological sleep interventions and want to identify\, assess\, and diagnose cases of insomnia\, and with peer supervision\, manage cases using the principles of CBT-I within their practice. \nInsomnia is a common sleep disorder that makes it hard to fall asleep\, stay asleep or causes you to wake too early and not be able to go back to sleep. This occurs despite having adequate opportunity for sleep and causes daytime distress or impairment. With up to 40% of the population reporting insomnia symptoms and between 10-15% of individuals meeting criteria for Insomnia Disorder\, the direct and indirect costs of Insomnia Disorder are extensive. Insomnia Disorder is a public health burden and the consequences can be seen at individual\, family\, community and societal levels. \nProfessor Jason Ellis delivers the course through a mix of online learning\, live session and Q&A to provide the theory and practical training to delegates to use in their practice. \n  \nModules covered include:\n\nDefining insomnia\nModels of insomnia\nDifferential diagnosis\nWho is a candidate for CBT-I\nStructure and Tools for CBT-I\nSleep hygiene and education\nSleep restriction\nStimulus control\nCognitive therapy I\nCognitive therapy II\nPeer support\nAcute insomnia\nQ&A\n\nLearning Outcomes\n\nDefine Insomnia Disorder according to International Classification of Sleep Disorders (3rd Edition)\, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th Edition) and the Research Diagnostic Criteria\nIdentify the differences between the various types and subtypes of Insomnia Disorder\nConduct a differential diagnostic for Insomnia Disorder\, including the assessment of intrinsic and extrinsic sleep disorders masking as insomnia (e.g. Restless Legs Syndrome\, Periodic Limb Movement Disorder\, Narcolepsy)\nIdentify who is and who is not a suitable candidate for CBT-I\nConduct CBT-I under peer supervision\, including note and case studies\nDetermine when brief therapies and adjunct therapies are indicated\n\nFormat & Location\nTwo day course\nDay 1 – delivered online through our online learning hub\nDay 2 – delivered live 9am – 4.30pm\, at Hilton Garden Inn\, Doncaster Racecourse\, Leger Way\, Doncaster\, DN2 6BB\nA printed workbook is also provided \n

SUMMARY:eSleep Europe 2023
DESCRIPTION:SAVE THE DATE for eSleep Europe 2023 – ESRS’s virtual sleep congress. This will be held 4–6 October 2023. We know your time and travel resources are limited and want to offer an accessible meeting where the decision to participate is not complicated. The vision for this virtual congress is to allow participation from around the region\, and provides the opportunity for ESRS to spotlight the achievements of Europeans. \nPierre-Hervé Luppi\, ESRS President and Erna Sif Arnardóttir\, ESRS Secretary have agreed to serve as the Chairs of eSleep Europe 2023 representing the fields of basic and clinical sleep respectively. \nUnlike our physical meeting\, the sessions will not run as parallel tracks but focus one half day per track. Essentially the time commitment is only a half day per track but all participants will have access to all of the sessions and posters\, both live and on demand. eSleep Europe 2023 will feature six half–days of education\, categorised by track to include keynote lectures\, year-in-review\, symposia\, controversies\, roundtable discussions and oral and poster presentations. Each day will be split into two tracks\, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon.
