In the pursuit of success, career and income, we often rob ourselves of the time necessary to recuperate. And we tell ourselves that “we’ll sleep it off in the next world.” Arianna Huffington explores the history and mechanisms of sleep, examines the causes of sleep disorders and proves that by depriving ourselves of proper rest, we gain nothing. Moreover, such self-deception reduces productivity at work, spoils health, destroys personal life and relationships with loved ones. Arianna doesn't just state the facts - she gives advice on how to correct the situation, learn to control your sleep and improve its quality. The author of the book suggests how to get enough sleep in a variety of situations: with long working hours, jet lag, stress or illness, intensive study and work, with small children in your arms, in hotels and on the road, and also if someone’s snoring bothers you. You will learn all about the “sleep killers” and learn how to neutralize them. When you wake up, you will feel rested, happy and full of energy for important things.
