Sleep Specialist

Tossing and turning…

May 29, 2016 by Carol 2 Comments

I can’t sleep, I just toss and turn for hours” is such a common complaint in my office these days. Thirty five years ago, when I began my private practice, I was working in New York City, and seeing a lot of people in high stress jobs. But curiously, people slept OK. Now I work in a peaceful rural setting in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York, and insomnia or other sleep disturbances are disturbingly common. What’s happening?

STRESS! That’s what’s happening. We live with a level of chronic, unremitting stress that our bodies were never designed for, and we are paying the price with stressed adrenals and elevated cortisol levels that keep us wakeful when we should be sleepy. Stress hormones were supposed to be released when the proverbial tiger was jumping out of the tree to eat us, not when we sit in traffic, worry about the economy or stress about our work, relationships or the state of the environment. Now, so many of us have constantly elevated stress hormones, and that is a real problem (for many reasons!) but especially when it’s time to wind down and relax for sleep.

Self-Help Giveaway!

June 12, 2010 by Carol Leave a Comment

Empowerment, and helping you find the skills, tools and philosophies that allow you to help yourself is fundamental to the work that I do. I was recently invited to contribute to Dr. Joe Rubino’s new Self-Help Giveaway. You may remember Dr. Rubino from my interview with him last fall on my “Profound Paths to Health, Healing and Happiness”  teleseminar series, when we talked about his brilliant work with self-esteem. I think his book, The Self-Esteem Book: The Ultimate Guide to Boost the Most Underrated Ingredient for Success and Happiness in Life is a remarkable piece of work. Well, toward that end Joe has created an impressive event that just opened, and features hundreds of free ebooks and audio and video courses in the self-help and self improvement fields.

Free gifts include my guided imagery meditation mp3 “Breathe in Peace,” and a recording of a fantastic conversation I had when I opened the Fall 2009 series with Marci Shimoff, author of the bestseller “Happy for No Reason.” Hundreds of other cool gifts are available.

I invite you to check out huge array of tools for health and well-being. There is no catch, you will be offered some products for sale, just say no thanks, and proceed to the gift giveaway. The gifts cost nothing simply because this event is run with the aim of introducing you to products and vendors in the self-improvement field who you might never otherwise know about (like me!) I have already downloaded some very cool ebooks and invite you to check this out and of course, please download and enjoy my interview with Marci Shimoff and  “Breathe in Peace”!
