Product Description
From Library Journal
Although the catchy title may mislead, this is a serious encyclopedia of sleep disorders. Based on sleep disorder studies from the Mayo Clinic's insomnia program, of which Hauri is director, this book goes into precise detail on the many kinds of insomnia, incorporating the complete range of research and treatment in easy and accessible language. The core of the program is record keeping, and the book discusses the sleep and day logs that patients often must keep for weeks before the particular cause for the sleep disorder is discovered. For consumer health collections, this is the best book this reviewer has seen on insomnia. Highly recommended.

Very comprehensive, unbiased book on insomnia,
By A Customer
This review is from: No More Sleepless Nights (Paperback)
The depth and breadth of this book is impressive. Dr. Hauri is not pushing a particular cause of or cure for insomnia... he covers a wide range of possible causes and cures. With this breadth of information, the reader can explore his/her own causes and possible solutions. If you are a long-time insomniac, you may find info here that you haven't seen elsewhere. I've had insomnia since childhood, have been to a well-known university sleep center, and found info in this book that has not been provided to me by any physician. Very, very helpful book. I've been sleeping well for 9 months nearly every night. Before I would have one good night of sleep every 6 months or so.

This book changed my life,
By A Customer
This review is from: No More Sleepless Nights (Paperback)
I happened into this book in a bookstore several years ago. At the time, I was experiencing sleep difficulties that were interfering with my life and work. This book works methodically through possible causes of sleep disturbance, and provides exercises that the reader can follow to determine the causes of their own sleep problems and how to solve them. Using the book's methodologies, I was able to determine within a couple of weeks the surprising cause that I was trying to get more sleep than my body needed. Therefore I was never sleeping particularly well and always feeling tired. I began to cut down on my sleep time, and almost immediately began to feel better! The point, however, is that this book provides tools for anyone to determine the causes of their sleep difficulties and begin to resolve them. I highly recommend it.

Helpful Tips for Sleep,
By
This review is from: No More Sleepless Nights (Paperback)
Peter Hauri has written a book full of good information and practical steps you can take to end insomnia. Here are all the basics to improve your sleep. These include keeping a sleep log, sleep hygiene, relaxation and stress management. Diet and exercise are also addressed. There is some help for diagnosing the sleep problem so that proper treatment is obtained. He addresses narcolepsy, sleep apnea, sleep terrors and other sleep disorders. Sleep problems increase around midlife and can be a function of emotional and stress issues, as the author of Women's Midlife Workbook, I have worked with many women who can use help for sleep at midlife and would find this book useful.
