Cómo dormir
las nuevas soluciones basadas en la ciencia para dormir toda la noche
Pelayo, Rafael
Anyone who has trouble sleeping has heard all the old rules of "sleep hygiene": no caffeine after 2:00 p.m., only use the bedroom for sleep, turn off screens an hour before bed, but as you can attest For the millions of people who suffer from sleep deprivation, following these one-size-fits-all directives doesn't work. How to Sleep is here to rewrite the rules and help you fall asleep - and stay asleep - each and every night. Dr. Rafael Pelayo, clinical sleep expert and professor at the world-renowned Stanford University Sleep Medicine Clinic, offers a comprehensive and holistic medical approach to the myriad issues that may be affecting your sleep. He begins by explaining the biology of sleep, including the extremely reassuring fact that no one really sleeps through the night: we naturally wake up every ninety minutes. Next, Dr. Pelayo addresses one by one the main sleep problems, such as snoring and its causes; the difference between transient and chronic insomnia, and how to treat each of them; strategies to combat jet lag; how lifestyle choices affect sleep, including exercise (even ten minutes helps), meditation (try it right before bed), and food and drink (alcohol is a double-edged sword: it can help fall asleep faster, but often interferes with sleep maintenance).
