Description
In this book, prominent physician and best-selling author Deepak Chopra, M D, presents an exciting new program for achieving a good night's sleep, an essential aspect of lifelong health and vitality.
The program, based in ancient principles of mind/body medicine and Western medical research, works on two levels. First, you'll learn step-by-step techniques to eliminate insomnia, unleash the healing power of your mind, and attune yourself to nature's deep cyclical rhythms. Second, you'll address the deeper issues that can underlie insomnia.
By completing a body-type questionnaire based on the traditional Indian science of health known as Ayurveda, you can access five thousand years of wisdom and learn how to balance your lifestyle. A more fulfilled waking life will translate into more restful sleep, which in turn will ease your way on the path to perfect health.
REVIEW
A new medicine is in the making, one in which mind, consciousness, meaning, and intelligence play key roles. One of the architects of the new medicine is Dr Chopra, a credentialed, respected physician who has paid his dues as a modern doctor.
