Publisher's Summary

One third of our lives is spent trying to sleep. Most us have disturbed, restless nights and rely on a cocktail of caffeine and sugar to drag us through the day. Yet the hours we spend in bed shape our moods, motivation and decision-making skills - defining our performance in work, at home and while keeping fit. We need a new approach to sleep.

In this groundbreaking audiobook, Nick Littlehales, elite sleep coach to some of the world's leading sports stars and teams, lays bare his strategies for us all to use. Discover how to map your own sleep cycle, what the optimum room temperature is, which bedding is best and why napping is actually good for you.

Listen to Sleep, learn from the best in sport, and kick-start a more confident, successful and happier you.

Meh

This could definitely have been a lot shorter. A lot of waffle. Some interesting nuggets of information though. It’s not worth 8 hours listening, maybe four.

Must Read for Anyone with Sleep Trouble

I've had issues getting to sleep and waking up early for most of my adult life. Amazingly this book gave me the skills and techniques needed to make overcome this. I felt as though it was inpossible to wake up and train first thing in the morning, bit after learning about sleep cycles it was no longer such a insurmountable task. Thankyou Nick Littlehales!
