Book Reviews of The Insomnia Solution: The Natural, Drug-Free Way to a Good Night's Sleep

Book Review: Don't Waste Your Time or Money
Summary: 1 Stars

After reading through nearly one-hundred pages of what is basically autobiographical information, I learned that if I put my hands together and grip each of my thumbs in the opposite hand while meditating for five minutes, I would be relaxed and refreshed. The author calls this exercise "the healer" and, from what I understand, it is one of his own patented "mini-moves". In this book you'll find several mini-moves to practice and learn (with a partner, of course, as it is difficult to learn the mini-moves by yourself) based upon what type of sleeper you are. Are you a "nervous sleeper"? Perhaps you are a "tense sleeper"? Maybe you're "just plain sleepless". Once you figure this out, you will be ready to begin learning the sacred mini-moves, which will no doubt lull you to sleep. Hmm... Well, nothing in this book worked for me, and I honestly can't believe it has helped anyone. But I am an insomniac, and in the author's defense, he is not. On page 30, he states that during one period of his life, he was only sleeping at night for "five hours by the most liberal reckoning." Wow, I'd give up ten years of my life to sleep five hours every night. He also states on page 8, "Chronic insomnia and sleep disorders are medical problems, and therefore beyond the scope of this book." Really? Then why is the book titled "The Insomnia Solution"? If you're still not convinced this book is worthless, then go ahead and read it yourself. Maybe "Advanced Air-Painting" (pg. 149) is just what you need to start catching some z's.

Summary of The Insomnia Solution: The Natural, Drug-Free Way to a Good Night's Sleep

Insomnia. It?s nearly universal affliction that keeps millions of Americans up at night. But now there?s help: THE INSOMNIA SOLUTION by Michael Krugman.

In this revolutionary book, Krugman shows readers that insomnia is not just a nighttime affliction, but a 24-hour-a-day condition resulting from daytime stress that persists into the night, delaying the onset of sleep and making it shallower and less restful.

To relieve stress and ensure sounder sleep, Krugman offers a two-pronged program of gentle, physical techniques, called Mini-Moves, based on traditional and modern self-healing methods including qigong, meditation, and the Feldenkrais Method. Brief, daytime Mini-Moves offset stress and make life more peaceful. When your life is more peaceful, your sleep is more peaceful.

Nighttime Mini-Moves, done while lying quietly in bed, make it easy to fall asleep at bedtime and enable quick recovery from unwanted awakenings during the night.

Readers can personalize the plan, which consists of a combination of 18 Mini-Moves. The profusely illustrated, step-by-step format makes learning fun and effective. THE INSOMNIA SOLUTION will help millions of readers to get all the natural, restful sleep they need, when they need it.
