"A collection of 200 pithy sayings and reflections on various aspects of Buddhist teachings. In addition to inspiration and encouragement, Bartok has compiled simple practices for transforming your sleep into something that's beneficial in new ways."
– Eastern Horizon
"We spend about a third of our lives in sleep. This little nightstand companion taps into lucid dreaming and dream yoga (taking meditation into the dream state). Ancient and contemporary teachers offer paths to mindful and restful sleep and inspiration for the day to come. The book includes writing, poetry and quotations from the historical Buddha Shakyamuni and Padmasambhava, plus contemporary teachers such as B. Alan Wallace, Barry Magid, Ezra Bayda and Ajahn Brahm."
