An Integrative Approach to Healthy Sleep

We're in the midst of an epidemic of sleeplessness, with half of adults struggling with insomnia and a host of health risks associated with inadequate rest and sleep. Yet we're all aware of the benefits of good sleep, from vibrant health to better productivity to happier relationships, and more.

On The Yoga of Sleep, Dr. Rubin Naiman integrates effective sleep science with time-honored sacred perspectives to help us reclaim the full potential of our nightly journeys.This practical two-CD course begins with a discussion of “the lost art of sleep,” which examines common disorders and how to promote natural, healthy sleep.

Dr. Naiman shares techniques for managing an agitated mind, letting go at day's end, optimizing your “sleep setting” (or environment), and more. We then join him for five guided practices including:

  • Rituals and rhythms—a contemplation on the essential elements of healthy sleep
  • A mindful surrender to sleep—meditation, relaxation, and hypnotic techniques for a smooth transition to sleep
  • Coming to—the sacred art of awakening

Dr. Andrew Weil has called his colleague Dr. Naiman a true pioneer in integrative sleep and dream medicine. On The Yoga of Sleep, Dr. Naiman invites us to open the “gracious gift” each night presents, and return to the deep serenity that lives at our core.

Review for The Yoga of Sleep

Even though it has been downloaded onto my desktop, I have not gotten a chance to listen to in up in my bedroom on my Ipad, since it is such a long audio, my Ipad is unable to accommodate that length unless I try deleting other things that I have downloaded onto it. It would be good for the site where we order these items, if it would warn us to check how much memory it requires to download. I am disappointed that I have been unable to evaluate this audio, since I was really looking forward to using it so it could help me in general and was wanting to use it while I was on a trip but was unable. Not sure if I should ask for a refund or keep working on deleting other items to make room for this. Didn't want the CD, since there is background noise and excess noise when discs end in general, and that has woken me up when CD is done.

Review for The Yoga of Sleep

I am learning loads and the application on relistening is quite easy.

The hypnagogic parts are great.

Excellent value

Review for The Yoga of Sleep

I cannot recommend this CD enough. It actually works and has given me a new insight into sleep and how to welcome the night. The new way of journaling is truly enlightening. Even if you sleep well this CD is well worth having.

Review for The Yoga of Sleep

Wonderful perspective on sleep. Very interesting and effective processes. There seems to be a great depth of personal practice, humility and wisdom that inform Rubin Naiman's approach. A great balance between scientific process and spiritual practice.
