In our busy society getting enough sleep, especially good sleep, can be a challenge. This book discusses how to sleep properly and how sleep may be used to enhance mental, physical and spiritual development. Topics that the author, Dr. Michele Powell, examines include sleep rhythms, the state of sleep, the mind-body connection, the use of sleep medication and the healthful benefits of a balanced life. Powell, a board-certified osteopathic family practitioner in Winston-Salem, also explores how to use sleep to awaken creativity and provides suggestions on falling asleep (as well as how to wake up). “The Power of Sleep” is published by Ecko in Sandy, Utah. Softcover, 84 pages, $9.99.
