Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Goodnight Mind
Colleen E. Carney · 2013
83/100
👍 Worth It
Two leading academic sleep researchers hand readers a practical, ten-step CBT-I program — the gold-standard clinical treatment for insomnia — in a format accessible enough to actually use on a sleepless night. Library Journal recommended it enthusiastically, and reader reports of meaningful improvement within days carry real weight here. It won't replace medical care for diagnosable sleep disorders, but for the racing-mind insomnia most adults know too well, this is genuinely excellent.
