Publisher's summary

Do you want to end those white nights and sleep like a baby?

You’ve done it all - the soothing bath, the warm glass of milk, meditation and relaxation before going to bed. You’ve counted sheep, you’ve read boring books, and you’ve listened to chill-out music.

Nothing does the trick.

You barely manage to drag yourself out of bed each morning, feeling like you’re running on fuel fumes. It’s time to change and master the art of quality sleep.

Insomnia has become the bane of our existence today.

In fact, 51 percent of adults worldwide don’t get enough sleep. It’s also not surprising that those with poor sleep quality are also more likely to report health problems than people who get at least eight hours of Zs per night.

Insomnia isn’t just a minor disturbance. Your body needs sleep to recharge its batteries, undo damage, and heal. Chronic under-sleeping will have negative consequences down the line, which is why the time has come to work on improving your sleep patterns.

While this may seem like a mission impossible at the moment, starting to enjoy much better sleep is within your reach.

The secret to quality sleep is discovering a science-based approach that will address your particular problem.

In 1910, the average person got nine hours of sleep per night! Today, we live in such a fast-paced and dynamic world that we simply don’t have the time to decompress and slumber. It’s also difficult to turn the mind off and worries stand in the way of falling asleep quickly in the evening.

So, what can you do to slow down and get your body more used to quality sleep?

In Rest, you will discover:

• The six main types of insomnia and how to identify the one you’re dealing with
• What untreated insomnia can do to your body (hint, the consequences can be immense!)
• Stress, stress, stress - the monster lurking under your bed and keeping you from falling asleep
• The number one sleep disruptor and how to get rid of it
• Sleeping soundly when you have young kids - is that even possible?
• Technology and sleep - should you get rid of the TV in the bedroom?
• The surprising connection between gut health and sleep
• Other serious sleep disorders and how to get rid of them forever
• Simple exercises and lifestyle changes that will help you fall asleep the moment your head touches the pillow
• When you should and when you shouldn’t use medications to improve sleep quality
• And much more

We live in a world that values hustling. We’re always told to work hard, take on new challenges, and never enjoy a break. The importance of rest is constantly underestimated, and society turns us into machines that don’t have an off button.

Sooner or later, however, fatigue will catch up with you.

Obviously, you don’t want that to happen.

So, sit down, take a break, and enjoy a few restful minutes. Learning how to slow down and relax is the first step toward improving sleep quality.

Unqualified Author

The content of the book is mostly valid, if poorly understood by the author, and misinformation is minimal. But it is clear that the author has no expertise in the field of sleep and no real background in medicine or science. He simply read up on sleep and shares what he learned. He often quotes a single research study and states that it "proves" this or that. He gives a number of personal anecdotes about sleep, but he has no professional experience to bring them into context, so they do not count for much. His command of the English language is also mediocre. I expected much more from an audiobook listed by Audible.
