Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK No matter how many creams, lotions, elixirs and balms you buy in the hopes of restoring a youthful glow and looking your very best, there is one tool that you have always had at your disposal, even if you are not quite sure how to use it. Sleep is, without a doubt, one of the most invigorating and revitalizing things you can do for your skin and your overall appearance. Even though you might feel you have plenty of practice at sleeping, it is not quite as simple as you think to use sleep in your advantage. Maybe you are one of the lucky people who has naturally perfect sleep habits, but for many others, it takes some conscious effort to work towards the most relaxing and invigorating beauty sleep possible. Fortunately, anyone can harness the renewing power of sleep, and usually without much cost or sacrifice. All it takes is rethinking your sleep habits and making sure you are building healthy sleep habits that will have you waking up looking refreshed and feeling beautiful. Beauty sleep is much more than just a myth. In a Swedish study, scientists decided to test whether or not people really appear more attractive after a full night's sleep. They studied 23 men and women, wearing no makeup and photographed under the same lighting. In the pictures where the subjects had enjoyed a normal night's sleep, they appeared healthier and more physically attractive than after controlled sleep deprivation. After the sleep deprivation, the subjects appeared less attractive overall and looked more tired and unhealthy. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK A large part of getting a sound night's sleep is getting your body in the habit of preparing for bed and unwinding from the day. About four to six hours before you usually fall asleep, it is a good idea to avoid alcohol, caffeine or foods that are heavy, spicy or sugary. If your typical bedtime is 10:30 p.m., make sure that by 6:30 p.m. you only eat light foods that are healthy and flavorful, but not too filling. Eating heavy, fatty, spicy or overly sweet foods before bedtime can make it difficult for you to fall asleep and stay asleep. Cut down on drinking alcohol before bed, since, despite its immediate result of drowsiness, alcohol usually means having trouble staying asleep after you are in bed. Drinking soda or coffee near bedtime will stimulate you and keep you from resting as peacefully and deeply as you should. Look for other little personalized gestures that help you calm down, unwind and de-stress. Limit electronic usage, such as TV-watching or browsing online. Instead try a good book, yoga, a cup of hot caffeine-free tea, a relaxing chat with your partner or a board game with the family. Find something relaxing that helps you get in a positive mindset. Try to stick to the ritual every night, until you can use it to signal to your body that you are getting ready to sleep... Buy a copy to keep reading!

Because: - You want to fall asleep faster and stay asleep every night. - You want to cure insomnia that is disrupting your sleep cycle. - You want to stop feeling tired all the time from sleep deprivation. - You want to not use sleep medications but opt for natural methods. - You want to improve your focus and productivity throughout the day. The average adults need around 7-9 hours of sleep each night according to the National Sleep Foundation. Sadly, many get far less than that bare minimum and it’s affecting their lives negatively and decreasing their ability to function properly. The truth is, roughly 70 million people in the United States alone are already suffering from some kinds of sleep disorders, and that number is only going to rise to a staggering 100 million by the middle of the 21st century. What are the causes of all these sleep problems? There are many factors involved. Typically, they can stem from an increasingly unhealthy and unbalanced modern lifestyle—related to demanding overwork, bad habits, neglected responsibilities, excessive distractions, etc., all competing for our attention and time. Some are even innate—especially for those who have been experiencing chronic sleeping issues their entire lives. Regardless, what matters is what you can do about it. In the conventional sense, there are medications to diagnose sleep disorders, but it goes without saying there are potentials for side effects, dependence, harm, and even death from accidental overdose. That’s why you should take a more holistic approach to restore the natural balance in your body and life by addressing the issue at the core rather than put a band-aid over the symptom with some pills that carry unknown long-term consequences. There is an underlying source attributing to your sleep problems—and that is exactly what the “7-Day Sleep Challenge” will tackle head-on in only a week. You’ll get practical applications and strategies that are both hands-on and effective, including: - Sleep-aid hacks using scents, sounds, lighting, air, and temperature - Custom detailed plan to follow to ritualistically get ready for bed - Behavior modifications for establishing new sleeping patterns All of these things and many more are simple to do and will dramatically improve the quality of your sleep. So are you ready to accept your “7-Day Sleep Challenge”? Then waste no more previous time staying awake. Time to relax and enjoy a rejuvenating sleep now—and good night.

Download or read book Why We Can t Sleep written by Ada Calhoun and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed author explores the hidden crises of Gen X women in this “engaging hybrid of first-person confession, reportage [and] pop culture analysis” (The New Republic). Ada Calhoun was married with children and a good career—and yet she was miserable. She thought she had no right to complain until she realized how many other Generation X women felt the same way. What could be behind this troubling trend? To find out, Calhoun delved into housing costs, HR trends, credit card debt averages, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw that Gen X women were facing new problems as they entered middle age—problems that were being largely overlooked. Calhoun spoke with women across America who were part of the generation raised to “have it all.” She found that most were exhausted, terrified about money, under-employed, and overwhelmed. And instead of being heard, they were being told to lean in, take “me-time,” or make a chore chart to get their lives and homes in order. In Why We Can’t Sleep, Calhoun opens up the cultural and political contexts of Gen X’s predicament. She offers practical advice on how to ourselves out of the abyss—and keep the next generation of women from falling in. The result is reassuring, empowering, and essential reading for all middle-aged women, and anyone who hopes to understand them.
