Product Description
Imagine an insomnia treatment that improves sleep in 100 percent of insomniacs, helps 75 percent of insomniacs become normal sleepers, and allows 90 percent of insomniacs to reduce or eliminate their use of sleeping pills. This treatment is safe, natural, and has no side effects except improved mood, higher energy, increased mind/body control, and better health. No, this is not a new miracle drug. It is Dr. Gregg Jacobs's drug-free program described in Say Good Night to Insomnia.

At Harvard Medical School's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Dr. Jacobs has tested and developed a six-week, drug-free program that conquers insomnia in a large majority of patients. The first clinician to offer proof that insomnia can be overcome without drugs, Dr. Jacobs's program provides techniques for: Eliminating sleeping pills Establishing sleep-promoting habits and lifestyle practices Changing negative, stressful thoughts about sleep Implementing relaxation and stress-reduction techniques Enhancing peace of mind and reducing negative emotions

5 out of 5 stars I love this book   January 2, 2009
Just reading this book helped enormously, and has given me a lot of tools to help put a self-treatment process in place. A lot of attention to the underlying thoughts and emotions connected to chronic insomnia and how to begin breaking them down. Yes, it is all apparently simple, but the pieces all fit together so that it works, although it can take more than six weeks, and I have found myself back at step one a few times. It is written warmly and encouragingly, like having a friendly therapist always on hand (as opposed to "No More Sleepless Nights", which is so dry and full of tortured case histories it made insomnia seem even more insurmountable!)


4 out of 5 stars This is going to save your life   December 6, 2008
I never thought a self help book could really make a difference but this book did to my life. To everybody suffering from insomnia: there is help and the answer lies in this book. There could be more emphasis on meditation perhaps with a step by step guide to help keep you practicing. But overall this book is really going to help you.


5 out of 5 stars Exceptionally Relevant and Helpful   November 9, 2008
This book is right on target, comprehensive, extremely well researched and offers great insight into the problems of insomnia. Anyone with insomnia will clearly benefit from reading this book. It really works!!! You will
sleep better.



5 out of 5 stars Comprenhensive Information   September 12, 2008
Putting all the ideas in this book together helped me discover some things I never knew were contributing to my insomnia. I feel like I'm finally on the path to better sleep!! (after having insomnia most of my life!)
