Format:Paperback
I highly recommend this book to anyone who suffers from insomnia. Dr. Hauri gives you all the facts about what could be causing your sleeping problem. He covers the effects of diet on sleep, including certain vitamins and minerals that promote sleep; the effect of exercise on sleep - how the amount and timing of activity is important; and how you might be upsetting your natural sleep cycle (you may be sleeping too much!) and how to reset this clock. Also, did you know that you may be conditioned to not sleep when you go to bed? He covers the Bootzin technique of overcoming this bad habit of bedtime-induced stress and anxiety.
He discusses medical problems that might be contributing to your insomnia and when to seek a medical professional. He explains why sleeping pills are not a good long term solution and how to kick this potentially dangerous habit. He gives you relaxation techniques to help you manage your stress all day long.
For any of you who were contemplating whether or not to seek treatment at a sleep disorders center, Dr. Hauri explains when it is time for you to seek this kind of help. He also covers what goes on in a sleep lab and what they will be monitoring.
Dr. Hauri gives you all the facts about sleep so YOU can be your own sleep investigator. Easy to read and understand. Highly recommended!
Thank you,Dr. Hauri, for helping me to feel so much more rested and refreshed.

Format:Paperback
The book 'No More Sleepless Nights' is an excellent overall book on sleep disorders. It covers very effective diagnosis of sleep disorders, such as those arising from poor hygiene, poor diet, depression and anxiety.
One of the most useful suggestions is the empirical and very sensible use of sleep logs to moniter your sleeping patterns, in aid of diagnosing possible factors leading to poor sleep. Once you have an idea of what may be causing your sleeping problems, the book gives detailed information on how to possibly remedy the situation. This includes topics such as relaxation techniques, excersise, regular sleeping times, as well as more drastic techniques such as light therapy and chronotherapy. The details of staying in sleep disorders units are also covered. Overall the book is very good, concise and well written, coming from two leading expert MD in the sleep disorders field. The main message you are left with from this book is - don't be scared of insomnia. Highly recommended.
Format:Paperback
I thought this book was great, if you suffer from a a poor sleeping pattern sometimes common sense is what we need to use. This books has lots of great ideas. I bought it for friends as soon as I finished reading it. It isn't a miracle and yes you do have to change your habits but certainly worth it for a good nights sleep.
