Sleep at long last

I first came across this book at 3 am on another insomnia night and was impatient for a solution. I didn't want any more pills that made me feel drugged the next day. I didn't want any more useless sleep hygiene advice, which worked intermittently. I also didn't want to pay $2,000 for a sleep study that would tell me I needed more pills and better sleep hygiene! Having suffered from insomnia for eight years, I was ready for a real solution. Two things caught my eye about this book. One, a large percentage of the reviewers were medical professionals who used the method in their practices. Two, the book suggested an approach that would actually relax the body and calm the mind, not drug it or try to control everything around it and hope it behaves. This was what I was looking for! After trying the methods, I can confirm that they work spectacularly; however, I do have a word of caution on the methods. Follow the steps in the book as exactly as possible, and don't go on memory alone when first doing them. Doing them incorrectly--even slightly so--can give you poor results.

amazing

This book is incredible! I was beginning to think that sleeping poorly was a result of getting older(I am in my 30s). Now I know that you can learn to be a good sleeper just like you learn other things! Read it and enjoy.

It's Great!

This is a fantastic book. It's wonderful for anyone who needs better sleep and, probably, most people in our fast-paced society. It's well rounded, with theory, explanation and to do "practice." I love breath surfing! It addresses body, mind and heart. The author's heart is evident throughout and is bound to touch yours if you're open to it. On a deeper level, I think these practices are useful for becoming more aware of patterns that keep us from reaching our full potential as human beings.

Invaluable

Caution: The tools in this book can produce tremendous pleasure. Side effects include: inner calm, peace, quality sleep, relaxation and joy. As a physical therapist and Feldenkrais(R) practitioner I have found The Sounder Sleep System(R) an invaluable tool in helping patients to achieve their goals in healing. These tools are quick, easy and effective-three of the most important criteria for success in any progam.

Reclaiming Sleeping Like A Baby

The Sounder Sleep System(TM) is one of those rare methods that actually WORKS! After years of insomnia due to long work days and stress, I began attending Michael Krugman's workshops and was amazed that his easy mini-moves(TM) put me to sleep in bright daylight in a room surrounded by other insomniacs--now all asleep! I was so impressed that I became a teacher of this system! Since then I find his work also helps my clients who suffer from tightness in the ribs, shallow breathing, stress--and, of course--insomnia.
