From the Author:

Fall Asleep Fast--And Sleep Through The Night
One of my assignments as a health reporter was to find the best drug-free ways to enjoy a sound night's sleep. By combining the latest scientific breakthroughs at sleep disorder centers with safe, proven all-natural remedies, I soon found that you don't have to go on living with poor sleep. Step-by-step, my book describes how to become your own sleep doctor and diagnose which of the six common types of insomnia may be sabotaging your sleep. Then I place powerful natural sleep-restoring tools in your hands: such as the ideal diet for perfect sleep; deep relaxation; do-it-yourself biofeedback; therapeutic imagery; nightmare reprogramming, and other easy-to-use ways to help you restore sound sleep. I also discovered that you have a lot more to gain than restful sleep. Virtually everything you can do to improve your sleep also benefits your health by drastically reducing your risk of heart attack, cancer, hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis and similar ailments and diseases.
