In Week 3, you will start to train your mind to see the bed as a place where you will sleep well. To train for this, you will need to:

1. Remove factors that condition your mind to resist sleep.

2. Use your bed for only sleep and sex.

3. Create a consistent routine for when you go to bed and when you wake up.

4. Create a plan for when you wake up in the middle of the night.
