First of all, although I'm I licensed heath educator (all ages, Massachusetts)... I'm not a medical doctor.

I feel a responsibility to study what medical professionals have to say, whenever I teach people anything about heath.

Sounds reasonable, right?

For the issue of better sleep and relaxation, I went ahead and enrolled in a course on improving your sleep offered by Harvard Medical School.

As an odd “coincidence”... right after I started offering the free music in exchange for your relaxation question answers and email address, Harvard Medical School emailed me about it.

I wasn’t always “Doctor Friendly”... avoided them like the plague for years.

But life-threatening health problems forced me back into the Dr's office, and I’m happy to report I like my Primary Care Physician and a lot of what doctors have to offer, now!

When doctors say something that seems to make sense, I listen!

In the course I took, here are the solutions Harvard Medical School recommends for better sleep. Many Of Which You're Already Trying:

I was happy to see Harvard recommend relaxation techniques such as comforting night-time rituals.

It reminded me of something I learned years ago, which fits perfectly here.

In his landmark book The Relaxation Response, Dr. Herbert Benson writes “I envision a future in which medicine is as sturdy as a three-legged stool, balanced equally by three healing resources - medications, surgery and other medical procedures, and self-care approaches. Ideally, medicine would call upon self-care for 60 to 90 percent of the everyday problems that patients experience.”

He had noticed that the medication he would give patients with high blood pressure, often made them faint or become dizzy.

This prompted him to develop a technique for relaxing. It’s a simple meditation technique I’ll explain here.

Relaxation-response techniques, such as meditation, yoga, and prayer, could reduce the need for health care services by 43 percent, according to a study at Massachusetts General Hospital.

If you could do something simple and easy that reduced your need for medications, surgeries, and other medical procedures by 43%, would you do it?

I hope that's a "Yes!" If so, congratulations on making a wise choice.

Here’s how, straight from the good doctor. (Note, I'm not affiliated with Dr. Benson.)

Dr. Benson's technique is meant to be used any time you want to relax. 

Now suppose you want to relax very deeply, to lull yourself into restorative sleep.

Relaxing music on YouTube or Spotify can be great - there are some people I listen to regularly on there... nothing wrong with that. But then you need to be online and may have to deal with ads.  

What if you could download soothing music to listen anywhere, on any device, online or offline? 

That's exactly why I created Soundbath.

When you purchase Soundbath today, you'll receive eight audio downloads... over eleven hours of healing music. Here's the sample video again for your convenience:
