I Can Make You Sleep

Paul McKenna, Ph.D. Β· 2016
74/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

McKenna's sleep program has the strongest evidence base of the hypnosis-for-sleep titles in this batch: worldwide bestseller status across multiple editions, reader accounts of eliminating prescription sleep medication, and a combined book-plus-audio format that makes the techniques actually usable. The results vary, as they always do with hypnosis-based approaches, and this is not a substitute for medical evaluation of serious sleep disorders. But for adults who want a structured, accessible program and are open to hypnotic methods, this is the most credentialed option in its category.
