Abstract
"Do you find yourself lying awake at night, ruminating about the events of the day? Do you toss and turn, worrying about what you have to do in the morning or what you did earlier in the day? If so, you are not alone. In fact, insomnia is the most common sleep disorder faced by the general population today. The most common complaint in those who have trouble sleeping is having a noisy mind. Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, it seems like you cannot silence all the internal dialogue.So what do you do when your mind is spinning and your thoughts just won't stop?
"Accessible, enjoyable, and grounded in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Goodnight Mind directly addresses the effects of rumination - or having an overactive brain - on your ability to sleep well. Written by two psychologists who specialize in sleep disorders, the book contains helpful exercises and insights into how you can better manage your thoughts at bedtime, and finally get some sleep.
"Traditional treatment for insomnia is usually focused on medications that promote sedation rather than on the behavioral causes of insomnia. Unfortunately, medication can often lead to addiction, and a host of other side effects. This is a great book for anyone who is looking for effective therapy to treat insomnia without the use of medication.
"This informative, small-format book is easy-to-read and lightweight, making it perfect for late-night reading."--Provided by publisher.

Abstract
Based on decades of research, it is now known that the most effective program for the reversal of chronic insomnia is called "Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia" or CBT-I. However, this treatment is rarely available to the general public as CBT-I is usually only offered by specially-trained psychologists or as part of research studies. People using CBTI report improved sleep, often in as little as 2-3 weeks and maintain good sleep for years. Sink into Sleep breaks CBT-I down into a step-by-step, easy format, allowing the reader to follow the same effective program that patients in the clinic do. Although Sink into Sleep is anchored in the science of sleep, the tone of the writing is reassuring and encouraging filled with first person accounts and easy to use worksheets.

Abstract
Qu'y a-t-il de plus naturel que le sommeil? C'est une fonction essentielle de l'organisme qui lui permet de refaire ses forces. De nos jours, malheureusement, de nombreuses personnes souffrent de problèmes chroniques de sommeil. Et à trop vouloir dormir, l'insomniaque en devient stressé. Et le cercle vicieux s'enclenche. N'oublions pas que le stress est l'une des causes importantes de l'insomnie.
Alors, comment vaincre l'insomnie sans se bourrer de somnifères? Des solutions naturelles existent. Mario Chaput nous explique les traitements susceptibles de nous aider et dresse le bilan de leurs avantages et inconvénients.
Il propose un arsenal de remèdes qui ne créent ni accoutumance ni effets secondaires et dont l'efficacité a été prouvée. Il nous invite à découvrir des méthodes simples et pratiques pour bien dormir sans médicaments.
L'auteur va droit au but et nous apprend ce qu'est réellement le stress, tel qu'il a été défini par Hans Selye. Il nous dévoile ses méfaits sur l'organisme en général, et sur le système glandulaire en particulier.
Dans cet ouvrage, de nombreux conseils sur l'alimentation, les suppléments naturels et le mode de vie viennent enrichir le propos.
C'est un guide incontournable pour quiconque veut jouir d'un meilleur sommeil et d'une bonne santé.
