Summary

"This should be required reading by every school administator, every teacher, every board member and all university faculty involved in the training of teachers. There is no doubt that we need to squeeze all blame, all coerion and all criticism out of any people-related business. Not until we realize that schools are in a people business will we ever be able to make meaningful changes."--Dr. Albert Mamary, former superintendent of schools, Johnson City, New York

    Do you want something that helps you sleep at night?Do you want to recreate your childhood bedtime story time?Do you wish to have something light to read before going to sleep?Then keep reading!Bedtime tales are an excellent and well-proven method of relaxing and practicing mindfulness. These tales aren't only for kids; they can help you conquer insomnia, get better sleep, and wake up feeling refreshed and reenergized.Doctors suggest that if stories help keep the brains of children busy without making them anxious, they can do the same thing for adults. For adults, the tales may work as a respite for our busy minds and redirect our focus to something tranquil; for children, on the other hand, the stories can be a source of joy and wonder. Considering it from a more pragmatic standpoint, when you lie down, all of the things you have neglected to take care of over the last ten years suddenly come back to you all at once? It's possible that telling ourselves tales before bed will prevent our thoughts from going in that direction. Bedtime tales may help break that specific cycle of negative thinking by diverting our attention away from our worries and onto whatever endearing narrative - or lack thereof - we happen to be enjoying.So what are you waiting for? Click on the purchase button to grab this copy and redirect your focus at night and sleep better!
