Win the Battle for Sleep: God's Plan for Rest, Rejuvenation, and Revelation In our fast-paced world, we see sleep as "wasted time," or else we lie awake as anxiety, fear, or distractions run through our minds. That was never God's intent for the night. Without realizing it, we've handed this sacred time over to the enemy. With warmth, compassion, and keen biblical insight, counselor and speaker Faith Blatchford reveals that it's during this precious time that God imparts everything necessary for us to be equipped for the day. Without peaceful sleep at night, we are robbed mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually of the resources we need. God created the night and the dark--and he called it good. He dwells in it. The dark does not belong to the devil, so don't let the enemy steal it from you. Here are the tools you need to take back your night, to encounter the God of rest, and to sleep peacefully the whole night through. Includes a chapter on how to help your children overcome nightmares and fear of the dark.

How the military used sleep as a weapon—and how soldiers fought back On April 21, 1971, hundreds of Vietnam veterans fell asleep on the National Mall, wondering whether they would be arrested by daybreak. Veterans had fought the courts for the right to sleep in public while demonstrating against the war. When the Supreme Court denied their petition, they decided to break the law and turned sleep into a form of direct action. During and after the Second World War, military psychiatrists used sleep therapies to treat an epidemic of “combat fatigue.” Inducing deep and twilight sleep in clinical settings, they studied the effects of war violence on the mind and developed the techniques of brainwashing that would weaponize both memory and sleep. In the Vietnam era, radical veterans reclaimed the authority to interpret their own traumatic symptoms—nightmares, flashbacks, insomnia —and pioneered new methods of protest. In Fighting Sleep, Franny Nudelman recounts the struggle over sleep in the postwar world, revealing that the subject was instrumental to the development of military science, professional psychiatry, and antiwar activism.

Sleep Paralysis is NO FUN. You know that... At best, it is unpleasant, at worst, it is a TERRIFYING experience. It can happen to anyone regardless of their lineage, age or gender, and doesn’t seem to be hereditary. Rather, sleep paralysis occurs when your body mismanages the physical aspects of the sleep cycle. While it can feel like you have no control, there are some tips and techniques to help reduce the frequency and intensity of sleep paralysis. These range from changing your diet to trying mental and physical exercises. Some will work better than others for you, but most take a few days or weeks to be fully effective. NO MORE sleep paralysis! In this book, I share powerful strategies and techniques for AVOIDING sleep paralysis or TURNING IT into a beautiful, exciting lucid dream. POWERFUL TECHNIQUES: Use the proven techniques in this book to avoid or reverse sleep paralysis, and instead turn it into a beautiful lucid dream! SLEEP BETTER: It's been shown that sleep quality is CRITICAL to long term health and performance. Sleep paralysis is probably making your sleep worse, so learn how to sleep BETTER, and DEEPER. We dive into several key concepts and techniques. NO MORE SLEEP PARALYSIS: If you've been struggling with SP for a long time, you'll know how annoying it is. In this book we break down EXACTLY what you should do to avoid it. BASED ON PROVEN CONCEPTS: All of our work is based on proven, well researched techniques and concepts. I trry and present it in a way that makes it EASY and even fun to put into action. REMOVE THE FEAR: I'll share how to TOTALLY remove the fear of sleep paralysis from your mind using potent 'neuro linguistic programming' methods. Ready to get started? Who Am I? I'm Stefan, the founder of HowToLucid, and I've been a lucid dreamer for years now. I've learned from many other gurus, researchers, and philosophers about this incredible ability. I've taught millions of people all around the world, to control their dreams, and grown my YouTube channel (where I answer peoples questions about lucid dreaming) to over 141,000 subscribers. We now have over 21,000 Instagram followers. I’m not saying this to brag, but instead to say, I wouldn't have that many, if I didn't know what I was talking about. For example, when the brain 'thinks' about doing something or dreams about it, the SAME neural circuits fire as when the person is ACTUALLY doing it.. This means that by practicing a skill in a Lucid Dream, such as the guitar or driving a car, you can actually get REAL life results.. I’m not sure how much longer I’ll keep this available at this low price, as this is very effective and concise information. What are you waiting for? Scroll up and buy this book now to learn how to AVOID or manage sleep paralysis!

“Easy to read and comprehensive. This book offers real practical guidance.” —Matthew Walker, PhD, bestselling author of Why We Sleep Anyone having trouble sleeping has heard all the old “sleep hygiene” rules: Don’t drink caffeine after 2:00 p.m., use the bedroom only for sleeping, put down your screens an hour before going to bed. But as the millions suffering from poor sleep can attest, just following these overly simplistic, one-size-fits-all directives doesn’t work. How to Sleep is here to rewrite the rules and help you get to sleep—and stay asleep—each and every night. Dr. Rafael Pelayo, an expert sleep clinician and professor at the world-renowned Sleep Medicine Clinic at Stanford University, offers a holistic approach to the myriad issues that might be affecting your sleep. He begins by grounding us in the biology of sleep including the extremely reassuring fact that no one actually sleeps through the night—we naturally wake up every ninety minutes. Dr. Pelayo then tackles the major sleep issues one by one, such as snoring and its causes; the difference between transient and chronic insomnia, and how to treat each; strategies to combat jet lag; how lifestyle choices affect your sleep, including exercise (even ten minutes helps), meditation (try it right before bed), and food and drink (alcohol is a double-edged sword—it may help you fall asleep faster, but it often interferes with staying asleep). There’s advice for the bedroom—on white noise machines, ambient temperature, what to look for in a pillow—and answers to our most pressing questions, from when to see a sleep medicine specialist to how aging affects our sleep. All in all, it’s a sure prescription to help you sleep better, wake up refreshed, and live a healthier life.

Roddel is an emotionally and mentally damaged warrior who has spent the last thirty years hating his enemies and running from his past and himself. All he knows is violence and survival, fierce commitment to his friends, and swift judgment to his enemies. Suddenly, a good friend's call for help forces him into cooperation with the very enemies he has sworn to kill. His only stability is the old friendship that he never thought would fail; but people change, loyalties shift, and even good friends can have ulterior motives. Roddel finds that his pride leaves him feeling angry. His anger leads to loneliness and regret. His only release from these seems to be violence, until he meets a blind man who shows him a better way and better reason to live. Perhaps the peace that he seeks, peace that transcends his past and his prejudice, cannot be found within himself. Perhaps true peace comes from another source. Can his greatest enemies hold the key to his future?
