[quote=Anonymous]What about progressive relaxation? I had a book similar to this (if not this one): http://www.amazon.com/Relaxation-Reduction-Workbook-Harbinger-Self-Help/dp/1572245492/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1372103188&sr=8-1&keywords=progressive+relaxation+workbook That went through the steps of progressive relaxation. You can also find CDs as well. Your local library probably has some. There are also yoga classes for kids that have relaxation at the end and this class: http://imcw.org/calendar/events/vw/3/itemid/229/sm/613/d/20130224.aspx It sounds like this is going to take time. She can always have a friend over for a sleepover and if you need to stay at a hotel, I would bite the bullet and have one of the parents sleep with her. A sleep deprived, anxious child at any time is challenging, but especially so when traveling. (I would skip the benedryl--makes me jumpy.) [/quote]
