Book excerpt: Packed with science-based insight into what it really means to 'age' and reminding us that we have far more control over how young we feel and look than most of us realize, this comprehensive guide, by natural health expert Jayney Goddard, offers the ultimate blueprint for anti-ageing the natural way. Our attitudes towards ageing have undergone radical changes in recent years and many women now recognize that beauty and health come not from invasive procedures, fillers or expensive skincare brands but from the inside out. This book is an expert holistic guide on the science of how to age well - not only physically and mentally but also emotionally and even spiritually - covering everything from nutrition, herbal medicine, good breathing, the best exercise, mental attitude, natural skincare, haircare and facelift techniques, hormonal balance, good relationships, the power of nature and the power of sleep. Each chapter includes easily implementable techniques which, while natural, are supported by solid scientific research, with a focus on the neurobiology of happiness and how to develop a 'rewind' mindset. All this is underpinned with biological age tests for readers to try for themselves and, at the end, a specifically designed practical programme called the 'Personal 21-Day Rewind Plan'. The result? Better skin, a leaner body, stronger bones, improved cognitive function, enhanced libido, more energy, improved immune function, increased resistance to degenerative diseases, more resilience against stress and much more. So, while we can't change our chronological age, we can dramatically reduce and even reverse our biological age so that we have plenty more healthy, happy years to look forward to.
Download or read book Chronotherapy written by Michael Terman, Ph.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An enlightened approach to insomnia, depressed mood, fatigue, and other sleep-related problems of everyday life, harnessing the power of light therapy to reset the natural clock. Sleep problems and depressed mood often go hand in hand, forming a frustrating cycle. Michael Terman, PhD, has devoted his career to studying the brain functions that feed these disorders. His discoveries in chronotherapy have been widely recognized as game-changers by the medical establishment, and his 2010 New York Times op-ed, "Sleeping (or Not) by the Wrong Clock," shot to number one on the paper's list of most-forwarded online articles. In Chronotherapy, Terman and McMahan reveal the heart of his findings, a powerful program that recalibrates our internal clocks—our exquisitely designed, natural sensitivity to the timing and brightness of light exposure, which are often decimated by the modern demands of a 24/7 lifestyle. Beginning with a questionnaire to pinpoint problem areas, Terman helps readers decipher when their natural internal night is. The treatment process can then start, incorporating the power of natural light and, when necessary, supplemental light therapy. His approach has brought relief to thousands of sleep sufferers, as well as those burdened by bipolar disorder, seasonal affective disorder, depression, sleep disorders due to around-the-clock work schedules, and other impediments to vibrant health. For the first time, his findings are now available for a general audience, sharing the essential elements of chronobiology in clear, authoritative, scientifically grounded chapters that are easy to apply to a variety of situations. Chronotherapy chapters include: PART ONE: TIME, SLEEP, AND RHYTHMS Chapter 1: External vs. Internal Time The clock on the wall measures twenty-four hours every day, but the clock in your brain runs a little different. How can you help them work together? Chapter 2: The Pressure to Sleep The longer you stay awake, the more pressure you feel to sleep. But what if your inner clock says it is not yet ready for sleep? Chapter 3: Owls, Larks, and Hummingbirds What kind of "bird" are you? And once you know, how can that help you figure out when best to get stuff done? PART TWO: TIME, LIGHT, AND THE BRAIN Chapter 4: Getting Light into the Brain How do your eyes pass signals to your inner clock, and what makes those signals so important? Chapter 5: Getting Light Wrong Seeing light and being in darkness are basic daily experiences. But what happens when they come at the wrong times, and why does that have such negative consequences for mood, alertness, and sleep? Chapter 6: Geography and Time East or west, south or north, how can where you live have such a huge impact on your mood and sleep? PART THREE: INTERVENTIONS Chapter 7: Healing Light How can light help you solve your sleep problems, have more energy, and feel more positive about life? Chapter 8: Nighttime Meds and Melatonin Do you rely on pills to get to sleep? They may not work, and may be bad for you. But a new approach based on the brain’s inner clock holds great promise. Chapter 9: Hospitalized with Depression When someone becomes so depressed they need to go to the hospital, what promise does chronotherapy offer for a quick turnaround and continued improvement? Chapter 10: Beyond Light: The Charge in the Air What is it about spending a day at the beach that gives you such a lift? And how can you use new technology to bring home feeling of wellbeing? PART FOUR: STAGES OF LIFE Chapter 11: The Promise of Pregnancy You are going to have a baby! How can chronotherapy help you through the next nine months? Chapter 12: Strategies for Babies and Children When your baby or child sleeps well and feels good, you feel better too. How can chronotherapy help you reach this goal? Chapter 13: The Challenges of Adolescence As a teen, why do you feel the need to stay up so late and sleep so late? What are the consequences? What simple steps can you take to put your life on a smoother course? Chapter 14: In Later Years Does getting older have to mean being tired, sleeping badly, and feeling down? How to reverse these trends by using light. PART FIVE: CHRONOTHERAPY IN YOUR LIFE Chapter 15: Coping with Shift Work What if your job puts you on duty when your inner clock says you should be asleep? How can chronotherapy help you stay awake, alert, and in a decent mood? Chapter 16: Racing the Clock, Racing the Sun How chronotherapy prepares you for a trip and helps you recover from jet lag as quickly as possible. Chapter 17: Chronobiology in the Home and Workplace How will the collaboration of chronobiologists and architects transform the places you live, work, and learn? Chapter 18: Dawn of a Circadian Science Why is mainstream medicine so slow to put the insights of chronotherapy into practice?

Download or read book Internal Time written by Till Roenneberg and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of a British Medical Association Book Award A Brain Pickings Best Science Book of the Year Early birds and night owls are born, not made. Sleep patterns may be the most obvious manifestation of the highly individualized biological clocks we inherit, but these clocks also regulate bodily functions from digestion to hormone levels to cognition. Living at odds with our internal timepieces, Till Roenneberg shows, can make us chronically sleep deprived and more likely to smoke, gain weight, feel depressed, fall ill, and fail geometry. By understanding and respecting our internal time, we can live better. “Internal Time is a cautionary tale—actually a series of 24 tales, not coincidentally. Roenneberg ranges widely from the inner workings of biological rhythms to their social implications, illuminating each scientific tutorial with an anecdote inspired by clinical research...Written with grace and good humor, Internal Time is a serious work of science incorporating the latest research in chronobiology...[A] compelling volume.” —A. Roger Ekirch, Wall Street Journal “This is a fascinating introduction to an important topic, which will appeal to anyone who wishes to delve deep into the world of chronobiology, or simply wonders why they struggle to get a good night’s sleep.” —Richard Wiseman, New Scientist

Download or read book Change Your Schedule Change Your Life written by Dr. Suhas Kshirsagar and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An eye-opening handbook from a leading Ayurvedic physician that blends cutting-edge science on "clock genes" with ancient eastern wisdom to help us understand how to harness the power of chronobiology to effortlessly lose weight, sleep better, exercise stronger, reduce stress, and boost our wellbeing. "It’s not you, it’s your schedule." Does it sound like magic? It’s not. We’ve all heard of circadian rhythms—those biological processes that give us jet lag and make us night owls or early birds. But few of us know just how profoundly these diurnal patterns affect our overall health. Bad habits like skipping meals, squeezing in workouts when it’s convenient, working late into the night to maximize productivity and then trying to "catch up" on sleep during the weekend disrupt our natural cycles. A growing body of research on chronobiology reveals just how sensitive the human body is to these rhythms all the way down to the genetic level. Our "clock genes" control more than we realize, and small changes can make the difference between battling our bodies, and effortlessly managing weight, sleep, stress, inflammation, and more. Marrying ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with the latest scientific research, Dr. Suhas Kshirsagar’s holistic step-by-step 30-day plan gives you the tools—and the schedule—you need to transform your life. With diagnostic quizzes to determine your specific mind-body type, you will learn to adapt you schedule for effortless wellness for life.
Download or read book The Rhythms Of Life written by Leon Kreitzman and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2011-09-30 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular science at its most exciting: the breaking new world of chronobiology - understanding the rhythm of life in humans and all plants and animals. The entire natural world is full of rhythms. The early bird catches the worm -and migrates to an internal calendar. Dormice hibernate away the winter. Plants open and close their flowers at the same hour each day. Bees search out nectar-rich flowers day after day. There are cicadas that can breed for only two weeks every 17 years. And in humans: why are people who work anti-social shifts more illness prone and die younger? What is jet-lag and can anything help? Why do teenagers refuse to get up in the morning, and are the rest of us really 'larks' or 'owls'? Why are most people born (and die) between 3am-5am? And should patients be given medicines (and operations) at set times of day, because the body reacts so differently in the morning, evening and at night? The answers lie in our biological clocks the mechanisms which give order to all living things. They impose a structure that enables us to change our behaviour in relation to the time of day, month or year. They are reset at sunrise and sunset each day to link astronomical time with an organism's internal time.
