If you are curious about the nature of sleep, as in how much we actually know about what sleep is, the purpose it serves in our lives and what happens when we don't sleep enough you have ordered the perfect book. Inside this book, you will find, in addition to other information: Guidelines for how much sleep humans need in different stages of their life Details about some of the most prevalent sleep disorders, what they are and how they affect people and also the treatments available to them. Results of sleep-related research...how sleep affects our health Information about the stages we pass through as we sleep A description of what is meant by the term "Circadian Rhythm" and how this rhythm affects how you sleep. Holistic home remedies you can try for mild or occasional insomnia Sleep is indeed a fascinating topic to read about. In our modern world, it is so common for people to lead such packed lives. In fact, vast numbers of people pack their lives too full. Something must give, and often times the extra hours that are so badly needed to get through the day are stolen from sleep. Before there were nine-to-five jobs and even before there were schools to attend, and of course prior to the invention of electricity, people slept entirely based on the rhythms of their bodies. And, because there was no such thing as "processed foods' people ate much better as well. Since the early 1800's humans have come light years in terms of progress. Scientists have been discovered and been able to accomplish and achieve so much in terms of our health and overall well-being. However, in part because of that progress we seem to have gone backward where sleep is concerned.
Download or read book How to Sleep written by Rafael Pelayo and published by Artisan. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Easy to read and comprehensive. This book offers real practical guidance.” —Matthew Walker, PhD, bestselling author of Why We Sleep Anyone having trouble sleeping has heard all the old “sleep hygiene” rules: Don’t drink caffeine after 2:00 p.m., use the bedroom only for sleeping, put down your screens an hour before going to bed. But as the millions suffering from poor sleep can attest, just following these overly simplistic, one-size-fits-all directives doesn’t work. How to Sleep is here to rewrite the rules and help you get to sleep—and stay asleep—each and every night. Dr. Rafael Pelayo, an expert sleep clinician and professor at the world-renowned Sleep Medicine Clinic at Stanford University, offers a holistic approach to the myriad issues that might be affecting your sleep. He begins by grounding us in the biology of sleep including the extremely reassuring fact that no one actually sleeps through the night—we naturally wake up every ninety minutes. Dr. Pelayo then tackles the major sleep issues one by one, such as snoring and its causes; the difference between transient and chronic insomnia, and how to treat each; strategies to combat jet lag; how lifestyle choices affect your sleep, including exercise (even ten minutes helps), meditation (try it right before bed), and food and drink (alcohol is a double-edged sword—it may help you fall asleep faster, but it often interferes with staying asleep). There’s advice for the bedroom—on white noise machines, ambient temperature, what to look for in a pillow—and answers to our most pressing questions, from when to see a sleep medicine specialist to how aging affects our sleep. All in all, it’s a sure prescription to help you sleep better, wake up refreshed, and live a healthier life.
