The Sleep Garden Set comes with three products: the zMusic CD, zMovie DVD and zStory CD. According to a retailer’s website, they will put your mind at ease in 30-60 minutes.

The website suggests an individual watch the DVD or listen to the CD while trying to fall asleep. One can also play them softly in the middle of the night. The zMovie, featuring the zMusic soundtrack, is a visual relaxation system that works through the television to makes colors shift and images abstract, purportedly slowing breathing and relaxing muscles to enable a user to fall asleep in a gentle way. zStory is guided visualization by somatic stress-release specialist, CJ Bradbury.

This may be a solution for the pro-active person experiencing mild or infrequent insomnia. The manufacturer maintains that by using this sleep system set of CDs and DVDs, the consumer will learn to unwind and relax, promoting healthful sleep and dreaming naturally.

Guided visualization is one tool among many that may be used in the process of opening a cognitive communication between the conscious and subconscious minds. It is likely not a tool to create instant results; consumers should probably not expect immediate or guaranteed results from this set.

Advocates of imagery contend that the imagination is a potent healer that has long been overlooked by practitioners of Western medicine. Imagery is thought to relieve pain, speed healing and allow the body to subdue hundreds of ailments, including depression, impotence and insomnia. Guided mediation or visualization is only one component of the Sleep Garden Relaxation Set; it is what sets this product apart. There are many choices for music CDs intended to remedy insomnia. Soothing sounds and hypnotic suggestion may be found online as MP3 music files, at a much lower cost. The value of this product is yet to be seen, as there are no trials or testimonials at this time. We would like to note that with the exception of the financial investment, an individual is not likely to be harmed by this product.

We believe it is important to keep in mind that for some, insomnia is serious and may lead to dangerous mental health conditions. These individuals who seek to improve sleep and overall health may wish to try a sleep aid made with Melatonin, an essential hormone and antioxidant.

Also, we suggest finding a product made with a high quality, patented main ingredient. Cysteine Milk Peptide® is a prime example of one that is known to promote levels of Glutathione, which may naturally remove toxic substances like Caffeine and restore sleep gently and safely. There are many supplements that are safe and effective, made with a proprietary delivery system that work to get many individuals sleeping deeply, quickly and without any next day hangover effects.
