Quiet Your Mind and Get to Sleep: Solutions to Insomnia for Those with Depression, Anxiety, or Chronic Pain

Great book on how to get a good night’s sleep
I read about this book in the Minneapolis Star and Tribune about behavior modification to get a better night’s sleep, so I ordered it. I found it very helpful and have been using some of the charts in the book. I would recommend buying the book as a paperback, not an ebook, so you can copy the charts and use them to improve your sleeping habits and calm your mind. There were new insights into sleep that I didn’t know. After reading it, I have given it to my son to read as he also has trouble getting a restful night’s sleep.

Best advice on insomnia so far
For someone who’s struggled with insomnia that produces severe anxiety, I highly recommend this workbook. I’m listening on Audible, but I also bought the actual book because I want to go back and take notes and recap some sections.I’m already taking the recommended actions to control my lack of sleep.

This book changed my sleep and has helped others
This book does not contain any new information. The reason it had such a big impact is it illuminated my thinking about sleep, how destructive my own thoughts were and how common suchthoughts are among people who struggle with sleep. Of course, my thoughts seemed original to me.I lead a healthy life so it was humbling to find out that I had developed a whole series of bad sleep practices. But instead of instructing me from the third person, this work book helped meunderstand my sleep through my own previously unknown attitudes and habits.Because I have incorporated what I learned from this book into my life, I now sleep almost perfectly. One of the things I learned is that while I’m an active person, I need to be sure that I haveset my “sleep driver” high enough each day so I added a vigorous daily walk. Knowing that I will sleep better because of the walk adds motivation.I told my doctor about this book and he advised me about the literature that my health care system publishes. It’s a lot of the same information but it lectures, it doesn’t help illuminate motivationand attitudes. I tell people about this book regularly, the title is easy for them to remember and I have received profuse thanks for passing it along. My daughter just asked for a copy as sherealizes from listening to me that she has trained herself not to sleep. This very readable book will teach her to sleep well.Thanks to the authors for giving understanding instead of just knowledge.

really great book. you will fix your sleep.
really great book. you will fix your sleep.

The writer likes to repeat herself and her points throughout the chapters, wasting the reader’s time and attention.How many times have they actually edit this book to be more succinct?Other than that, great content.

The information this book presents is so helpful it can only make your sleep better. Excellent charts. Excellent work book to improve your sleep by understanding the process.
