Say Goodbye to Sleepless Nights

The problem is - where do you start? If you keep buying books which promise you that "this therapy/remedy/self help treatment will cure your insomnia" you could spend an awful lot of money before you find the right one (and in the meantime, the anxiety about the amount of money you're spending could be just one more thing that keeps you awake at night).

But now you don't have to buy lots of books or try lots of remedies that you know nothing about - Say Goodbye to Sleepless Nights is a comprehensive guide which discusses a wide range of orthodox, complementary (alternative) and self help remedies and shows you exactly how to decide which ones are most likely to help you.

Did you know that there are different types of insomnia? And that some treatments suit one type and not others.

This book will help you to understand which type you are suffering from and therefore which treatments might be appropriate.

Did you know that if you consult your doctor he may suggest treatments that don't involve taking drugs?

This book will explain what they are and will also offer information about the drugs that are most commonly prescribed for insomnia.

Did you know that there is a vast range of complementary therapies, remedies and self-help treatments which are effective in the treatment of insomnia?

So even if you've already tried quite a few things, you are bound to find a lot in this book that's new to you.

By now you may be wondering what my qualifications are for writing such a book . . . So let me introduce myself.

I'm a qualified physician and, although I've never suffered from chronic insomnia myself, I've seen plenty of patients who've had this problem and I know how debilitating it can be. I've also trained in and studied a number of complementary therapies and I'm married to a homeopath. So I have a wide knowledge of complementary medicine. And I've written several books (including one on acupuncture and another on hypnotherapy which were published by Penguin) and numerous magazine articles on various aspects of medicine and complementary medicine.

And if my face looks familiar . . . well, you may have seen me on TV as the medical expert on a programme called Problem Page.

You've probably seen a number of other books on insomnia advertised on the web and you may have noticed that a lot of them have two things in common - a promise that your insomnia will be cured within a certain timescale and an offer of all sorts of "bonuses" (often stated to have a value greater than the book itself) to persuade you to buy.

Well Say Goodbye to Sleepless Nights has no empty promises and no gimmicks. How long you take to recover from your insomnia is a highly individual thing. If you've suffered from it for a long time, you're likely to find that the cure will also take some time - what will happen is that (with the right treatment) your sleeping pattern will gradually improve until, finally, you're sleeping well again. And, in the book, I show you how to keep a record of your sleeping habits so that you can see that this is happening. But, in the same way that a cut takes time to heal or a broken leg takes time to mend, a true cure of insomnia takes time. Of course, if you start taking sleeping tablets, you are likely to sleep well straight away - but this isn't a true cure because, without the tablets, you'd revert to sleeping just as badly as before and, if you take them for too long, their effect tends to diminish.

So . . . no empty promises. The only thing that I can promise you is that this book is so full of treatments and self help remedies - some of which claim a 90% success rate - that there is an extremely high chance that you will find within its pages something that will be effective for you personally and will cure your insomnia once and for all.

And no gimmicks. I'm not offering extra books on hypnosis or on high blood pressure (or on anything else with "added value") because what you want to know is how to cure your insomnia - and, on that subject, everything you need to know is in Say Goodbye to Sleepless Nights

And now let's have a look inside the book, so you have an idea of what you'll be getting.

In order to find the right treatment, it's important for you to understand the underlying cause of your own insomnia - is it, in fact, true insomnia (and, if it is, what type is it?) or is it another medical condition (such as obstructive sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome or periodic limb movement) that's masquerading as insomnia? All this is explained at the start.

Then comes a self-help section in which we look at simple everyday things that may help - and at other things that may be making your insomnia worse.

After this comes an in-depth look at orthodox treatment - what your doctor might prescribe for you and how it might help. We also look at the drawbacks of taking sleeping tablets and the side effects that different types of tablet may cause.

Finally in this section, we look at the non-drug therapies that your doctor might recommend - behavior therapy, cognitive therapy, relaxation therapy, progressive muscle relaxation, biofeedback techniques, breathing techniques, paradoxical intention therapy, sleep restriction therapy and stimulus control therapy (this last section containing some self-help suggestions).

Having dealt with the orthodox treatment, we look at eighteen complementary therapies:

Acupuncture

Aromatherapy

Ayurvedic medicine

Bach and other flower remedies

Chiropractic

Colour therapy

Craniosacral therapy (cranial osteopathy)

Crystal therapy

EFT (Emotional freedom technique)

Herbalism (phytotherapy)

Homeopathy

Hypnotherapy

Meditation and visualization

Nutrition therapy and supplements

Reflexology

Shiatsu

Traditional Chinese medicine

Yoga

There are self-help suggestions in 12 of these sections plus details of over 60 different oils, essences, crystals, herbs and homeopathic remedies that could be appropriate for treating your insomnia.

By now you may be thinking "but with all that information, where do I start?" Well, that's covered too. There's an introduction which explains how to use the book . . . which bits to read first . . . how to keep a sleep journal so you can keep track of your progress . . . which self-help methods to use from the start and which to try later on if necessary.

The book also suggests how to go about choosing which therapy to try, based on your individual needs. And within each section, where appropriate, remedies are suggested which are related to specific symptoms.

So, for example, you will learn about:

r California poppy - which, as well as having sleep-inducing properties, is also a painkiller (although, unlike the opium poppy, it's not a narcotic) and which can be used to make a bedtime drink.

r the homeopathic remedy Calcarea phosphorica (Calc. phos.) which may help if you have aching joints or tense muscles in your neck and shoulders and if you lie awake for ages feeling upset and irritable.

r calcium, which can help you to sleep (and also protect you from leg cramp during the night) and why it's best to take supplements in the form of Dolomite tablets (available from health stores)

And among the other things you'll learn are:

         how what you eat, what you drink and what you do before
        bedtime and once you're in bed can affect the way you sleep

why snoring makes you tired - and how it can be overcome

     why women are more likely to suffer from insomnia - and the
specific ways in which it can be treated

     how massaging one place on your wrist and another on your leg
    or repeating certain sounds to yourself can help you fall asleep

     how crystals - some of them so powerful that they can disrupt
electrical equipment - can act gently to help you to sleep

why spending fewer hours in bed can result in more hours asleep

     and how certain flower essences can change your mood, making
you more relaxed and enabling you to fall asleep more easily

This is a newly-published book and only a few people have had the opportunity to read it so far. But of those who have, several have contacted us with their impressions, among them a gentleman who said:

"I bought your book for my wife who's been an insomniac for over twenty
years. She says it's the most helpful book she's read on the subject
(and, believe me, she's read more than a few)."

Others have described Say Goodbye to Sleepless Nights as "excellent" and "a winner" and have commented on the amount of useful information it contains.

A comprehensive book at a remarkably low price

At only $25, this book costs much less than you could pay for a comparable book (if there were one) in a bookshop. And it's less than you might pay for an ebook describing just one method of treating insomnia.

And unlike an ordinary book which has to be sent in the mail, this is an ebook which you can download straight to your computer as soon as you've paid for it (just follow the instructions). You can start reading straight away - either on your computer screen, or you can print it out - and there's no waiting involved..

So you may be wondering why, if the book really is as comprehensive as I've said it is, I'm selling it at such a low price. The reason is simple. If you're reading this, it's because you need something to help you sleep again. And I don't want you to be prevented from buying it because the price is too high. I've seen too many patients in distress because of insomnia. And that's why for just $25 I'm giving you information on numerous effective therapies so that you can find the right one for you and, once and for all,

Say Goodbye to Sleepless Nights
