Abstract
Sleep disorders increase in prevalence and intensity with aging and often become chronic. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy of Insomnia (CBT-I) and the 3 P model of insomnia allows to differentiate between predisposing, precipitating and perpetuating factors influencing insomnia and to attenuate their effects. This treatment usually is the better alternative to long-term prescription of hypnotic medication. Its principles are outlined here.
