ing effects on every inch of our lives. The problem is that misinformation about sleep is widespread and is a huge barrier for getting effective support for treating insomnia issues. Dr. Parky H. Lau's first sleep book, The Insomnia Paradox, is the culmination of what we know about treating insomnia based on the forefront of sleep science. Data from clinical trials suggest that nearly 80% of people with insomnia see improvements in their symptoms following the research-based strategies discussed in this book, and this book also provides insights on ways to support those who continue to struggle with sleep problems after treatment. Instead of trusting our anxious brains, we learn to trust what the sleep science says. In this book you will learn:
The causes of insomnia - specifically, the causes of your insomnia.
The Fundamental Sleep Equation for getting deeper, more refreshing sleep.
Myths and misconceptions that maintain insomnia.
Drug-free strategies that effectively treat insomnia based on sleep science.
Strategies to reduce fatigue and improve energy during the day.
The aim of this book is to make you (the reader) into your own insomnia therapist so that you will be able to take these tools to improve your sleep at night and feel better during the day - presented in a way that is specific to your sleep problem and aligns with your values. There is no one-size-fits-all, and this reader-centered book honors this truth in both its education and recommendations.
At the very least, The Insomnia Paradox promises to be an enjoyable light read in the darkest dark of insomnia.
