Can redesigning your day cure sleepless nights?
NCT ID NCT06558929
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a program called the Model of Occupational Harmony (MOHar) can help people with sleep disorders sleep better and feel better. Forty adults with poor sleep will either get this program—which helps them redesign their daily routines with an occupational therapist—or standard sleep hygiene advice. The study tracks sleep quality and quality of life for six months after the program ends.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- occupational therapy (redesigning daily routines)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a non-drug way to improve sleep and quality of life for people with sleep disorders.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The intervention is behavioral, so benefits may vary.
