I think your conclusion sounds spot on. Also, I feel as though sleep requires surrender and it is nearly impossible to surrender when one is perpetually running from the 'enemy'. Addressing your PTSD may be the key to a number of things you're hoping to improve.
Reading that article was like taking a trip down memory lane for me. I was huge into Hawkins many moons ago. I went to a group for years with, like, 5 guys and this was what we worked on. Love, love, love it!!

Thanks for reminding me that I need to get back to more of this practice!!
