Beginning with asking how people in other cultures sleep and can we learn anything from them about our own sleep behaviours, one question is are beds or hammocks or sleeping mats best? We need to change our attitudes to sleep, to stop obsessing about how much we get and what is keeping us awake, and revert back to the natural wake-sleep pattern that we were born with. By explaining the science of sleep and how human sleep habits have changed, here are easy to understand explanations of the science, psychology and function of sleep. The book includes a waking diary, relaxation techniques, coping strategies and natural sleeping aids to help you achieve peaceful, stress-free nights. We delve into circadian rhythms and desynchronisation, medical conditions, physiological and psychological reasons, chemical causes, sleep hygiene, the role of medication, pleasure seeking, learning to cope with little sleep, an anxiety diary template, pleasure template, gratitude, deep muscle relaxation script and a sleepy story script for young children. Nicely presented and full of colour photographs and diagrams. 128 pages.
