What Is Sleep Well Coaching?

Sleep Well Coaching is a personalised, educational and behavioural approach to improving sleep and restoring balance.

Rather than offering generic advice, coaching looks at the individual client — their habits, routines, environment, stress levels and the way their nervous system responds to daily life.

From here, coaches can create tailored, realistic strategies that support deeper, more consistent rest — in a way that fits the clients life.

Sleep is shaped by what we do repeatedly, often without realising.

Sleep Well Coaching focuses on practical, evidence-informed changes such as daily rhythms, bedtime routines, light exposure, bedroom environment and how stress is carried through the body.

Often delivered over a 4-6-week period, coaching supports clients to make small, meaningful adjustments that build momentum — allowing sleep quality to improve naturally over time.

Sleep Well Coaching is not a medical treatment or a replacement for clinical care.

It is a supportive, coaching-based service designed to help clients understand sleep, work with their body and develop sustainable habits that promote restoration and wellbeing.

Through education, reflection and gentle guidance, coaching helps clients move away from restless nights and towards a relationship with sleep that feels calmer, steadier and more trusting.

Meet your Coach Trainer

Hello, I’m Dr Claire Maguire…

I’m a Health & Wellbeing Coach with over 15 years of experience in the wellbeing field. Since founding Raw Horizons Academy in 2011, I’ve trained hundreds of coaches who now practice successfully across 12 countries. With a PhD in medical biochemistry and training as a Kundalini yoga teacher, meditation facilitator, and breathwork trainer, I bring both scientific rigour and holistic wisdom to my teaching.

But this sleep training comes from somewhere deeply personal.

While helping others sleep better for years, I never struggled with sleep myself. I took it for granted – until a combination of stress and menopause changed everything. Suddenly, good sleep felt like a distant memory. With a busy business to run and a family to care for, taking time off wasn’t an option. Learning to sleep well became my mission.

This training is the result of that personal journey combined with years of working with clients. It’s a comprehensive study of the art of sleeping well, grounded in real-life experience and a deep understanding of the challenges we all face in getting a good night’s rest.

Why This

Training Exists

I have worked with people for many years now and I cannot tell you how often everything circles back to sleep. We talk about stress, hormones, motivation, relationships… and underneath it all someone says, “I’m just so tired.”

Sleep is something we assume should come naturally, until it doesn’t. And when it doesn’t, it effects everything — our mood, our patience, our resilience, our ability to cope with the life we are trying to build.

You may already support others and feel that nudge to understand sleep properly, or you may have struggled with it yourself and realised how much of our wellbeing rests on something so biological and yet so easily disrupted.

This training exists because I believe sleep deserves to be understood properly. And when you understand it, you don’t just help one person sleep better. You influence how they cope, how they parent, how they lead and how they show up in their own lives. The effects extend far beyond the bedroom.
