Join us in peaceful COSTA RICA for a
Healing Sleep Retreat
MARCH 3 - 10, 2007

Presented by Michael Krugman,
Founder of the SOUNDER SLEEP SYSTEM™

Get ready to experience the most restful, restorative week of your life! If you suffer from insomnia, daytime fatigue, adrenal burn-out, or maybe just a bad case of the “mid-winter blues”, join internationally acclaimed teacher, author, and healer Michael Krugman, founder of the SOUNDER SLEEP SYSTEM, in a total escape from the stress of modern life. Enjoy seven days of profound healing, rest, learning and inspiration in the virgin forest and pristine beachfront of Costa Rica’s Guaria de Osa eco-resort.

Michael Krugman, MA, CFT, founded the SOUNDER SLEEP SYSTEM™ in 1999 and teaches all over the US and Europe. He is a lifelong student of traditional self-healing practices including yoga, qigong, and meditation, and has been a GUILD CERTIFIED FELDENKRAIS TEACHER® since 1987. Michael is the author of The Insomnia Solution (Warner Books 2005). He is currently working on curriculum development, training, and staffing for corporate-sponsored Sleep Schools in twenty German cities while gathering material for a new book entitled Beauty Sleep.

Put the healing power of sleep right at your fingertips with Michael’s step-by-step MINI-MOVES™—easy movement and breathing techniques usable anytime, anywhere to relax your body, calm your mind, and lull yourself into healing rest, meditation, or sleep. Learn what to do when you can’t sleep, how to recover quickly from nighttime awakenings, and how to reduce the “mental chatter” that robs you of inner peace—so you’ll get your deepest, most restful sleep ever. Go home rested, renewed and revitalized with practical tools you can use to get all the natural sleep you need, when you need it—for the rest of your life.

Join us at Costa Rica’s acclaimed Guaria de Osa RAINFOREST/BEACH DISCOVERY CENTRE & ETHNOBOTANICAL GARDENS where wilderness coast and tropical beaches meet the pristine Pacific Ocean. Medicinal plant gardens, exotic and rare birds, surfing, scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, canoeing, hiking, guided excursions, and of course, rest and relaxation will delight you. Each day will be a mix of workshop activities (including qigong by guest instructor, Sharon Smith!) and leisure of your choice—in a Nature Sanctuary, surrounded by rainforest with fragrance of Ylang Ylang trees, scarlet macaws, howler monkeys ... and just a few steps to ocean swim, snorkel and surf! Participants receive 3 days credit toward completion of Michael’s teacher training program. Note: SOUNDER SLEEP SYSTEM™ and MINI-MOVES™ are trademarks of Michael Krugman.
