I've struggled with insomnia most of my life, on and off. Not terribly, but over and over. And this short but complete discussion of why I can't get to sleep, and what I can do to move through what keeps me awake - well, it works.

The author knows his stuff. What's most important, he's practical and in each chapter gives specific guidance that really took me through the bothersome thoughts that kept me awake - so that I could let go and come into the present moment, and well, just drift off.

I also found Selby on the web ... and discovered that since he puiblished his sleep book, he has posted great audio guidance right on the web ... and he has a CD that I bought with a sleep program. ow I just put it on, and it takes me away.

But the book is also essential as far as I'm concerned. It gave me the insight to see how I torture myself with my thoughts, and how they provok the emotions that keep me awake.

If you want to get to sleep - read this book!

Full of practical suggestions, reports on sleep research, deep insight about the relation of sleep symptoms to the rest of one's life, and general wisdom, this book is the best thing I've ever read on getting a good nights sleep. I'm actually pretty good at getting a good night's sleep, and John Selby has many insights into why that is the case.

Very well written. DR. Shelby has done a fantastic job. I have benefitted from reading his book. I will recommend it to others.
