Publisher's Synopsis
We spend a third of our life sleeping, so why not use that time more effectively?
Sleep is a miracle cure that optimizes all of our body's functions. And yet we are not optimizing this incredible tool. With the increasingly hectic pace of our daily lives, compounded by the prevalence of so many gadgets and machines and the sheer amount of time we spend attached to our screens, it's little wonder that so few of us are getting our beauty sleep.
We know we're not getting enough sleep, but we don't know how to fix it. What most of us don't realize is that we all have the capacity for awakened sleep. Awakened sleep slowly trains the sleeper to have optimal energy, superior cognition and brain functioning, more balanced emotions, and longevity - especially when compared to the average seven hours of sleep.
Awakened Sleep bridges the gap between science and ancient wisdom traditions so we can improve our lives. It is the first comprehensive "sleep manual" that guides the reader through the current science of sleep but goes several steps beyond by offering an understanding of the higher states of consciousness that emerge from sleep and dreaming, which in turn, impact our spiritual awareness and the subtler aspects of our overall health. With a Foreword by Deepak Chopra, Awakened Sleep fuses cutting-edge scientific research with age-old Vedic practices for balanced, restorative sleep.
Including a comprehensive sleep hygiene protocol and an assessment to uncover your own unique sleep patterns, Awakened Sleep reveals why a good day-indeed, a good life-always begins the night before.
