An Insomniac's Guide to Getting a Good Night's Sleep
Last year I cured my lifelong chronic insomnia and wrote Desperately Seeking Snoozin' about my experience and cure. In order to get feedback, I sent early drafts to insomniacs that I found in the Internet.
Last year I cured my lifelong chronic insomnia and wrote Desperately Seeking Snoozin' about my experience and cure. In order to get feedback, I sent early drafts to insomniacs that I found in the Internet.
As I am neither a writer nor a medical professional, I was amazed by their responses.
I was even more surprised by the reaction of the medical community. I was particularly pleased with the quote by Dr. Peter Hauri, considered by many to be the world's leading authority on insomnia. Dr. Hauri is Director of the Insomnia Program at the Mayo Clinic and author of "No More Sleepless Nights".
Please refer to my web site for a sample of the book as well as comments by readers of my early drafts.

This could be the drug-free answer for your insomnia!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Desperately Seeking Snoozing: The Insomnia Cure from Awake to Zzzz (Paperback)
John Weidman has been a dear friend of mine for many years, and I have watched him suffer with insomnia throughout our friendship. Determined to lick this problem without the use of drugs, he researched and experimented with different approaches until he found one that worked for him--and it does work. His behavior modification approach makes so much sense and is so simple to incorporate into anyone's lifestyle. Do yourself a favor by investigating his recommendations. This book may truly offer an answer to your problems!Sarah Black Memphis, TN

I highly recommend it to anyone struggling with insomnia,
By A Customer
This review is from: Desperately Seeking Snoozing: The Insomnia Cure from Awake to Zzzz (Paperback)
"Desperately Seeking Snoozin" is a book that depicts the experience of insomnia and the road to recovery. It is filled with accurate analysis and treatments of the many possible constituents that can contribute to the origin of insomnia. The author gives an authentic portrayal of his experience of insomnia and the approach he takes to cure this most toublesome disorder. The reader can feel the author's passion as he provides a comprehensive review of the many causes and treatment approaches to insomnia. He also has a way of conveying to the reader the importance of maintaining an intense dedication to adhering with his treatment program. He uses humor, self revealing stories, current professional sources and accounts from other people suffering from insomnia to convey the importance of identifying the contributing factors. He accurately reminds the reader that these contributing factors may be different for each individual sleep problem, and helps the reader to discover for themselves what works and what doesn't. Mr. Wiedman shows how important it is for the person who has insomnia to continually monitor the treatment approach and ongoing sleep habits. It is clear that Mr. Wiedman has put a lot of work and research into this subject. I believe that anyone suffering from insomnia can be helped by reading this book. I highly recommend it to anyone struggling with insomnia. Richard G. Copen, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist Clinical Director, Insomnia Clinic Sparrow Sleep Center, Lansing, MI

an outstanding book to help cure insomnia.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Desperately Seeking Snoozing: The Insomnia Cure from Awake to Zzzz (Paperback)
This book presents a simple,common sense approach to aid in the cure of insomnia. As an avid reader, I know that good books are hard to put down. This book was hard to put down! I, in fact, read it in one day. I purchased copies for those close to me that suffer various degrees of insomnia. It's comforting to know there is a book available that presents a no-nonsense, drug-free,alcohol-free, simple regimen for the treatment of insomnia. Should be on every household bookshelf.
