For nearly 20 years, sleep-deprived Americans have found natural, drug-free relief from insomnia with the help of Dr. Gregg D. Jacobs' Say Good Night to Insomnia. Jacobs' program, developed and tested at Harvard Medical School and based on cognitive behavioral therapy, has been shown to improve sleep long-term in 80 percent of patients, making it the gold standard for treatment. He provides techniques for eliminating sleeping pills; establishing sleep-promoting behaviors and lifestyle practices; and improving relaxation, reducing stress, and changing negative thoughts about sleep.

In this updated edition, Jacobs surveys the limitations and dangers of the new generation of sleeping pills, dispels misleading and confusing claims about sleep and health, and shares cutting-edge research on insomnia that proves his approach is more effective than sleeping pills.

Say Good Night to Insomnia is the definitive guide to overcoming insomnia without drugs for the thousands of Americans who are looking for a healthy night's rest.

Life-changing information for everyone but especially insomniacs. I encourage you to research beyond this book about progressive relaxation techniques because they kind of glossed over it and there is better advice out there

Life changing!

Some of the facts were very out of date- for example, author says there is no evidence of harm to health for not sleeping enough and that performance does not suffer. These incredibly wrong statements are made up for with the useful tips on how to manage stress and improve sleep habits

I suffered from severe insomnia, for years, I think the fact that I wasn’t sleeping, well, made my insomnia. Worse, my belief was that if you didn’t get eight hours of sleep, I could probably die. After reading this book and participating in the exercises requested, my sleep did in fact, get better, I worry less about how many hours I was getting more so how I was feeling during the day, I still suffer from insomnia, but not every night. I don’t get anxious when I can’t sleep because I know it won’t kill me and I actually function pretty well during the day for the most part. Broken sleep makes me feel better during the day, mood wise. Honestly, the book did help me tremendously, it is my go to when nights are rough.

My experience, and how it transformed my life.

I like how well the author balances giving details and being concise. His findings are not surprising as someone who has had insomnia and used medication to treat it.
