This drug-free program was developed at Harvard Medical School and has been proven effective among thousands of individuals.

The book includes self-assessment inventories and schedules that allow the participant to monitor progress, as well as concise, easy-to-understand information about sleep and stress, spread out over a six week treatment period.
