I've had several bouts of insomnia in recent years due to anxiety/panic disorder. During the recent bout, I was able to get to sleep the first time I listened to the cd, and had previously not been able to sleep for several nights due to repeated panic attacks and total exhaustion. Relaxation techniques are not enough. The music lulled me into a restful state and kept me there. I was able to sleep more than 6 hours of deep sleep the second night. There are no subliminals in this cd, but the music is what I can only describe as hypnotic. It put me in a state of total relaxation, and before I knew it I was drifting off. I downloaded it into my ipod, set it to repeat all tracks, and put on headphones. As I heard the music, my body began to relax totally. I could feel the tension leaving my body, and I felt so relaxed, I didn't even want to move. Soon after, sleep followed. I awoke several hours later, momentarily, and with my headphones still on, I simply turned over and went right back to sleep for several more hours. I awoke feeling completely rested and rejuvenated and in a cheerful state of mind. I can honestly say that this has been a life-saver. When I went through this years ago, I was put on antidepressants to help with the anxiety and they made me worse at first. Now I am medication free, and using alternative methods to ease anxiety as it occurs. Along with the relaxation and breathing techniques found in my anxiety tool-box, I'm adding this. Give it a try. I hope it works for other insomnia sufferers as well as it did for me.

I also recommend the following book, another tool to help cope with anxiety disorder. Practical guide to overcoming anxiety and panic attacks "one day at a time". Along with the techniques suggested in the book for going into "alpha" state, the cd will help you get there quickly and reprogram those negatives into positives!
