Until Tomorrow...A Gentle Guide for a Good Night's Sleep: ($15.99, sleepuntiltomorrow.com): Created by Juhi Singh, an acupuncturist, Chinese herbalist, and yoga instructor, this CD has a guided-meditation track with instrumental music to help you fall asleep, and another track to gently rouse you (this requires a CD alarm to activate). Singh's sleep-inducing plan: She asks you to close your eyes, follow her voice, put aside expectations, and breathe deeply.
Our experience: A few seconds of Singh's voice was enough to make our eyelids grow heavy, and listeners reported feeling "very relaxed" before drifting off into a sound sleep” though one tester found the wake-up track "irritating. Her soothing voice just made me want to go back to sleep."
Bottom line: This CD can bring on sound slumber, and adequate sleep is proved to lower stress-hormone levels.
