Review
Use Morin's management program to overcome insomnia without medication. The idea here is to alter sleep patterns and regulate insomnia: relaxation techniques, altered routines, and a sleep journal are all contributions toward breaking the insomnia cycle. -- Midwest Book Review
From the Publisher
For millions of insomniacs, it's bad enough not to be able to sleep through the night, and these sleepless sufferers don't want to wade through hundreds of pages of complicated sleep theory to find a cure. They want fast, concrete, and practical answers that will provide immediate relief from their tossing and turning. Relief From Insomnia, written in accessible, user-friendly language and contained in a lively and informative package, offers the help they need.
Written by the chairman of the Task Force of the American Sleep Disorders Association, Relief From Insomnia outlines a complete self-management program for overcoming sleep disorders--without medication or physician intervention. Beginning with a discussion of sleep patterns and an overview of the prevalence, causes, and impact of insomnia, author Charles Morin teaches readers the steps necessary to regulate and control insomnia. He pinpoints routines that contribute to insomnia, giving suggestions for alternative and healthful habits, and tips for maintaining these good habits over time. He also discusses the detrimental effects of shift work and jet lag on sleeping patterns--due to the prevalence of working odd hours and extensive traveling in society today. He also includes special chapters on sleep problems of children and the elderly, and insight into sleeping disorders such as sleep apnea and narcolepsy.
A practical, helpful package that allows readers to cure themselves--Relief From Insomnia is a vital tool to help insomniacs get their zzzzs. Copyright 1996 by Charles M. Morin, Ph.D.
