Book Reviews of Healthy Sleep: Fal Asleep Easily, Sleep More Deeply, Sleep Through the Night, Wake up Refreshed
Book Review: Fell asleep the first time I listened to it
Summary: 5 Stars
I have infrequent yet intermittent insomnia caused by anxiety - but when it hits, it feels like I have to dig myself out of a hole again. I had just come from my doctor and he recommended that I buy this amazing audio set. I was so exhausted that I bought it, came home, put it on my computer and took not one but two naps! The Dr.'s voices are easy on the ears and their understanding of insomnia through and through is comforting in itself. I highly recommend! I had the most gentle naps with this CD and I am not a napper. I have been too anxious to nap. Thanks to this CD, not today:) Book Review: Healthy Sleep
Summary: 1 Stars
There was some helpful information, but even thought I like to swim and love the water, I found the use of immersing yourself in water to immersing yourself in sleep rather disturbing and creepy, like voluntarily drowning. I don't want something wet taking my hand and pulling me into the water.Book Review: THIS ONE REALLY WORKS
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had problems with severe insomnia the past few months. I have ordered several relaxing CD's and they have helped some but "Healthy Sleep" is the one that actually works. The information given by Dr. Weil and Dr. Naiman give is invaluable to any one that is having sleep issues. I have especially benefited from learning how important it is to "wind down" in the evening before bed and I learned what to do when I wake during the night. Sleep issues is a complex problem and they are all explored in this CD. Thank you Dr, Weil and Dr. Naiman for helping me on my journey to solving my sleep issues. I would recommend this CD to anyone who is having any sleep issues. There is sound, practical advice that really works. Book Review: An immediate difference!
Summary: 5 Stars
I listened to this CD while "fall cleaning" our bedroom so I put into place the suggestions that were made. I then listened to the "going to sleep track". What a difference! Part of the benefit was knowing that waking in the middle of the night can be very normal. Just relax! These CDs are filled with concrete, down-to-earth actions for you to take. Book Review: Help for insomnia!
Summary: 5 Stars
Healthy sleep is a cornerstone of good health that is often overlooked. Alternative medicine expert Dr. Weil and his colleague Dr. Naiman, a sleep expert at the University of Arizona, shed light on how sleep affects health. The CD begins with Dr. Weil talking about sleep in innovative and informative ways. His voice keeps the listener engaged, as he breaks down the different stages of sleep, as well as talking about the importance of mindful awakening. He discusses why sleep drugs are detrimental to healthy sleep, but offers an alternative for people struggling with sleep disorders. Dr. Naiman then takes over to provide practical tips for better sleep, along with breathing and relaxation exercises that can help listeners achieve a good nights rest. His voice is relaxing and confident, and is well suited for the guided meditation/breath work included on the CD. The CD is also well organized with the sleep exercises at the very end of the CD. This allows you to play the guided exercises at bed time, and if you fall asleep the CD will just end and you won't have to get up and turn it off. Multiple track titles allow listeners to easily navigate the information in CD format. The book touches not only insomnia - or trouble falling asleep, but also the common problem of achieving restful sleep. This would apply to people who don't have trouble falling asleep, but rather don't wake up feeling rested. If this is the type of sleep disorder you suffer from you might be left wanting more information. The exercises and most of the research presented in Healthy Sleep address more typical "insomnia". But if falling asleep is your main problem this CD is a must have. It provides background research, practical tips, and guided exercises to help you achieve maximum health through proper sleep.
