"Easy to read and comprehensive. This book offers real practical guidance."-Matthew Walker, PhD, bestselling author of Why We SleepA MindBodyGreen Health & Well-Being Book for Your 2021 Reading List 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 medically comprehensive and 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.

Short, informative book

How to Sleep is a short read that discusses the things you can do to get a good night's sleep. It is a great overview of the issues people face with not sleeping well, and would work well as an introduction to the topic. However, it could use more detail about each condition, more examples of what has worked for other people, and sleep surveys and questionnaires readers could take to determine whether they have an issue or not. The book is written in easy-to-understand language, making it accessible for all people. However, I was left wanting more after reading it.
