Sleep is the apex predator of healthy habits. Often overlooked, but
massively important. Using both anecdote and science, my longtime
colleague Diane Macedo offers up a series of wise and flexible
approaches we can all customize to our own benefit. -- Dan Harris,
author of 10% HappierMy esteemed colleague Diane Macedo has
certainly done her homework. Like many, I have sleep issues. After
reading The Sleep Fix I no longer dread hitting the sack.
Surprising solutions indeed! -- Robin Roberts, ABC's Good Morning
AmericaTake it from a narcoleptic, this book is so important. The
Sleep Fix not only has the basis of credibility coming from Diane,
a mother and a master of overnight shifts, but it focuses on what
should be the base of our health pyramid: identifying and
addressing our sleep problems in order to get quality sleep. --
Ginger Zee, ABC News Chief MeteorologistThe Sleep Fix is a
pleasantly informative read that provided me with something I
didn't know I needed: a reeducation on how to sleep! -- Kofi
Kingston, WWE SuperstarI've been waiting for a book like The Sleep
Fix. Diane delivers science-based and down-to-earth explanations
for how the most common sleep disorders work, often in ways that
are, frankly, much better than many of us sleep specialists have
done. It's filled with concrete solutions based on research and
clinical wisdom gathered from dozens of the sleep medicine field's
top minds. Diane's compassionate, authoritative, yet humorous voice
imbues her message with real hope--if she can overcome her sleep
problems, so can her readers. -- Jade Wu, PHD, clinical
psychologist and board-certified behavioral sleep medicine
specialist The advice in this book is absolutely spot on. Diane
Macedo shows an impressive knack for distilling sleep science into
straightforward advice. -- Jennifer Mundt, PhD, Center for
Circadian and Sleep Medicine, Northwestern University
A practical, entertaining, and encouraging book about getting
better sleep. Instead of rehashing the same old sleep hygiene
cliches, The Sleep Fix gives actionable, straightforward advice
based on good science and thoughtful personal experience. As a
psychologist who specializes in insomnia, there aren't many books
about sleep I recommend--but this will definitely be one of them.
-- Nick Wignall, board-certified psychologist specializing in
treatment of anxiety and insomnia
In The Sleep Fix Macedo combines an authentic portrayal of her
personal experiences overcoming insomnia with simple, actional
advice from leading experts in sleep science. With a 'no fluff'
approach, The Sleep Fix clears up much of the confusion around
insomnia by righting the ill-advice that is rampant online. Macedo
provides an extensive list of practical sleep tips combining
science, expert advice, and anecdotal experience. She explains in
detail how these sleep tips work so readers can easily tailor them
to suit their life circumstances. For individuals suffering
insomnia, especially those working night shifts this book could
literally be a lifesaver. -- Dr. Thomas Dickson (Phd), Musicologist
at the University of New South Wales
Mixes personal anecdotes... with surprising tips... It's a winning
formula. -- Booklist"The suggestions in this book encompass every
area of sleep disturbance and should be tried at once!" -- San
