Publisher's Summary

In her New York Times best seller Thrive, Arianna Huffington introduced her readers to the importance of sleep in terms of redefining success through wisdom, wonder, well-being and giving. But the topic seemed to touch such a powerful chord and seemed to resonate so universally in today's 24/7, fast-paced, always-connected world that Arianna realized a full book on the critical importance of sleep to our health and lives, and on the long-term danger of sleep deprivation on performance and happiness, was needed.

In her new book, Arianna reveals all the ways that our inability to get enough sleep impacts our lives; undermines our decision making; compromises our health, our athletic performance, our work lives, our relationships and even our sex lives; and causes us to lose control over how we interact with others and engage with the world. She discusses the latest science on sleep, explores the importance of dreaming, tackles how technology changes our sleep cycles and explores ways to get better and more restorative sleep. Later in the book, she looks at sleep aides and the role of the sleep industry in compromising our efforts to get a full night's sleep.

She goes on to offer specific tips and strategies to take control of our sleep lives and learn to make the power of sleep work for us in rejuvenating our brain cells, regulating our weight, improving our concentration and strengthening our memory skills.

Good Info If Somewhat Redundant

This book provides a lot of evidence to support the fact that sleep improves your life and lack of sleep makes your life worse but once it has convinced you of that the rest of the evidence—and there is a lot more—just seems to labour the point. Also, why didn't Arianna Huffington just narrate the book herself? Agapi Stassinopolous sounds exactly like her—I mean exactly. Overall I enjoyed the book and found it useful. I have recommended it to a few friends already.

Not much to learn from it

Too much about importance of sleep, too little about how to get it. I already know it’s important, no need for 8 hours to tell me again and again.

A vital read

This book explains in plain English why sleep is so vital to our well-being. It offers some great techniques to help us get better sleep. There are a few places where the text could have been strengthened by someone who had a scientific background.

Finally someone else who values sleep

This book is so powerful with its message on the importance of getting a good nights sleep. Plus it is backed up with so much research and facts. Although at times, I did feel that the number of anecdotes were a bit excessive in getting her point across. However, Ariana has motivated me to implement some of her sleeping techniques.
