Insomnia sucks! Sometimes, nothing short of sleeping pills can help, but then you have side effects to deal with. Sondra Kornblatt came up with an approach that will help you live with insomnia and not hate it. You can rest even if you can't sleep. She explains how to diminish the hold of the restless mind and reconnect with the body in a way that is soothing and beneficial. Some of the techniques are new age and some are strongly backed by science. I say, it's worth a try if it could help. The book is not long, and the chapters are bite-sized.

Insomnia is a frustrating, debilitating problem that costs millions of hours of lost creativity and usefulness to countless individuals. The author's approach is both intriguing and easy to follow.Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. This was a very useful, engaging read. Suffering from chronic insomnia myself, scoring this book was a nice snag. The techniques and exercises listed within are clear and easy to follow, truly helping to take the immense frustration out of not being able to sleep. Well worth reading for those who are chronically awake and those who only suffer the occasional bout of insomnia. I have been a chronic insomniac for about 7 years now. This book had many wonderful, useful suggestions for making insomnia less frustrating (which it most certainly is!). Using the exercises and techniques in the book, I managed to find rest even when I didn't find sleep, which was a godsend as half the frustration is not being 'asleep' when you feel you are 'supposed' to be asleep. My favorite was building a Night Nest. Wonderful, wonderful book! Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. I just spent all night in a state of "restless wakefulness." got up and ate a piece of toast, watched some tv, finally drifted off at around 6 am this morning and woke up at 8am feeling like a zombie. This was after reading "Restful Insomnia". There are many helpful hints, most of which I have tried before. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. The directions for the 'hip opening' exercizes frustrated the heck out of me. The book seemed to me to be a compilation of magazine articles stretched out into a book. It could have been half the size. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Tonight, seventy million Americans will battle insomnia. They will plump pillows, rehash arguments, fold laundry, take sleeping pills, watch TV. They'll seek sleep but not find it. According to the National Sleep Foundation, up to a third of all Americans suffer from occasional or chronic wakefulness. Prescriptions for sleeping pills have increased 60% in six years, even though recent medical research (Journal of American Medicine, June 2006) shows that behavioral therapies such as Restful Insomnia are more effective for sleeplessness than pills. The Restful Insomnia five-part program is easy to make a part of each night's rest by offering techniques that help the sleep-deprived to accept insomnia, befriend the night, and greet the morning refreshed. Restful Insomnia shows readers how to end the war with sleeplessness by learning to use their waking night hours to quiet the mind, replenish their inner creativity, and relax deeply -- deriving many benefits of sleep.
