Insomnia plagues far too many people. Our modern world is filled with too much stimuli and not enough downtime. Stimulants, depressants and other mood altering agents affect our mind's natural ability to process and release information. Consequently, more and more people have trouble sleeping.

Images are used on us everyday, thousands of times in a day. Have you ever watched television? Of course, you have. How about video clips on the computer? They flash thousands of images before your eyes. What about the radio? Radio gives you words and suggestions that then get interpreted into images in your mind.
