Imagine waking up each day alert, invigorated, and at the peak of health—without needing that cup of coffee to get going. For many, this sounds like a fantasy. But according to Dr. Andrew Weil and his colleague Dr. Rubin Naiman, healthy sleep and healthy waking are well within your grasp, without turning to sleeping drugs. Now in this 2-CD set, these two mind-body experts present practical tools to help you enjoy the life-changing health benefits that optimum sleep provides. On Healthy Sleep you will learn:

* The roots of insomnia, and natural techniques, practices, and safe supplements to overcome it

* The spiritual component of sleep and dreaming—the missing ingredient to truly rejuvenating sleep

* Eight practices from Dr. Naiman to address your specific sleep concerns—including three sessions to help you fall asleep

* How a healthy sleep cycle can improve your immune system, mood, sense of well-being—and even your weight

Good sleep is not just about the number of hours one spends in bed. It must also reflect the depth and quality of that sleep. With Healthy Sleep, two trusted medical innovators bring you their expert guidance for achieving a critical yet often overlooked building block of any healthy lifestyle: a good night’s rest.
