1.) Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams
Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don’t sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life – eating, drinking, and reproducing – the purpose of sleep remained elusive.
But an explosion of scientific discoveries in the last 20 years has shed new light on this fundamental aspect of our lives. Now, preeminent neuroscientist and sleep expert Matthew Walker gives us a new understanding of the vital importance of sleep and dreaming. Among so many other things, within the brain, sleep enriches our ability to learn, memorize, and make logical decisions. It recalibrates our emotions, restocks our immune system, fine-tunes our metabolism, and regulates our appetite. Dreaming mollifies painful memories and creates a virtual reality space in which the brain melds past and present knowledge to inspire creativity.
Walker answers important questions about sleep: How do caffeine and alcohol affect sleep? What really happens during REM sleep? Why do our sleep patterns change across a lifetime? How do common sleep aids affect us, and can they do long-term damage? Charting cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and synthesizing decades of research and clinical practice, Walker explains how we can harness sleep to improve learning, mood, and energy levels; regulate hormones; prevent cancer, Alzheimer’s, and diabetes; slow the effects of aging; increase longevity; enhance the education and lifespan of our children, and boost the efficiency, success, and productivity of our businesses. Clear-eyed, fascinating, and immensely accessible, Why We Sleep is the crucial account on sleep that will forever change listeners’ minds on the subject.
Review from Molly G.: I’m about 75 pages into this book and it is already one of the most fascinating, important, and engaging books I’ve ever read. And it’s funny, too, which was unexpected. This should be required reading by EVERYONE. After you read this book, I can’t imagine how you could not prioritize getting an 8-hour night of sleep every night. Some astounding facts:
-Routinely sleeping less than 6 or 7 hours a night increases your risk of cancer by 50%.
-Every species every studied, preceding the emergence of vertebrates even, sleeps. Some species can sleep with only half their brain (!!). Sleep is an incredibly risky thing for an animal to do because you are completely vulnerable to predators when you sleep. But sleep is THAT important that it was preserved by evolution.
-After even one night of less than 5 hours of sleep, natural killer cells (which kill cancer cells that appear in your body EVERY DAY) drop by 70%. Just one night!!!
Buy it, read it, and then share it with everyone you know.
2.) Sleep Smarter: 21 Essential Strategies to Sleep Your Way to a Better Body, Better Health, and Bigger Success
Intro: When it comes to health, there is one criminally overlooked element: sleep. Good sleep helps you shed fat for good, stave off disease, stay productive, and improve virtually every function of your mind and body. That’s what Shawn Stevenson learned when a degenerative bone disease crushed his dream of becoming a professional athlete. Like many of us, he gave up on his health and his body…until he decided there must be a better way. Through better sleep and optimized nutrition, Stevenson not only healed his body but also achieved fitness and business goals he never thought possible.
In Sleep Smarter, Stevenson shares easy tips and tricks to discover the best sleep and best health of your life. With his 14-Day Sleep Makeover, you’ll learn how to create the ideal sleep sanctuary, how to hack sunlight to regulate your circadian rhythms, which clinically proven sleep nutrients and supplements you need, and stress-reduction exercises and fitness tips to keep you mentally and physically sharp.
Sleep Smarter is the ultimate guide to sleeping better, feeling refreshed, and achieving a healthier, happier life.
Review from Julie B.: I’ve read a lot on nutrition, exercise and health and thought I knew enough about sleep. Turns out a lot of the tips on this book were either new to me, or provided me research and backing for things I’d heard were damaging to my body’s ability to get a good night’s sleep, but had questioned due to a lack of science to back the claims. My husband and I read this a few chapters a night over a week and really appreciated the format, for chapters we already were pretty solid on, we could read the power tips and move on, but for areas that provided new information to us, we took the time to read the whole chapter.
We appreciated the author’s sense of humor and practicality – for example, giving options for how to continue having coffee, vs. all or nothing solutions, and other “hacks” to help us integrate suggestions in our every day lives that can’t always accommodate a perfect implementation.
I had never heard of this author and didn’t purchase the book based on his podcast. My daughter’s doctor mentioned the role of sleep deprivation in weight management and recommended we look at her sleep habits as a possible cause for her unexplained weight gain. I thought this was strange as it seemed she was getting a lot of sleep, but looking closer at her habits, we realized she was not sleeping well and was tired all the time as a 16 year old. I had not thought about the timing and other factors impacting the quality of her sleep, not to mention mine or my husband’s, and I was searching for answers about my own fatigue and recently night waking in spite of good diet and what I thought was adequate exercise. In looking for more information I found this book, and we’ve been applying these ideas as a whole family.
3.) Why We Can’t Sleep: Women’s New Midlife Crisis
Intro: A generation-defining examination of the new midlife crisis facing Gen X women and the unique circumstances that have brought them to this point, Why We Can’t Sleep is a lively successor to Passages by Gail Sheehy and The Defining Decade by Meg Jay.
When Ada Calhoun found herself in the throes of a midlife crisis, she thought that she had no right to complain. She was married with children and a good career. So why did she feel miserable? And why did it seem that other Generation X women were miserable, too?
Calhoun decided to find some answers. She looked into housing costs, HR trends, credit card debt averages, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw a pattern: sandwiched between the Boomers and Millennials, Gen X women were facing new problems as they entered middle age, problems that were being largely overlooked.
Speaking with women across America about their experiences as the generation expected to “have it all”, Calhoun found that most were exhausted, terrified about money, under-employed, and overwhelmed. Instead of their issues being heard, they were told to lean in, take “me time”, or make a chore chart to get their lives and homes in order.
In Why We Can’t Sleep, Calhoun opens up the cultural and political contexts of Gen X’s predicament and offers solutions for how to pull oneself out of the abyss – and keep the next generation from falling in. The result is reassuring, empowering, and essential listening for all middle-aged women, and anyone who hopes to understand them.
Review from C.M. & T.M.: I picked up this book thinking it would just be some sort of self-help thing, but I was absolutely wrong. It’s a book of solid statistics and “stories from the field” about the women of Generation X (those born between 1965 and 1980) and why some of us feel burned out, fatigued, and restless. “Why We Can’t Sleep” is about this sense of malaise so many of us are feeling- what caused it, why we experience it, and how women are dealing with it.
The book covers everything from psychology to neuroscience, health care to parenting, the economy to marriage. Not just in our current moment, but in the span of years that Generation X have been alive and the impact that growing up in unstable socio-economic times can have on an entire generation of women, even if we believe we weren’t individually impacted by many of the events that happened in our lifetimes.
The reason why this book hit so close to home is because around six years ago, I started feeling a deep unease that I couldn’t put my finger on. There are definitely factors within my immediate circumstances that I could see had an impact on me, but it felt like something much deeper was going on way outside my control and maybe even my comprehension, and to be honest, it’s really spooked the heck out of me…
4.) It’s Never Too Late to Sleep Train: The Low-Stress Way to High-Quality Sleep for Babies, Kids, and Parents
When Dr. Craig Canapari became a father, he realized that all his years of 36-hour hospital shifts didn’t even come close to preparing him for the sleep deprivation that comes with parenthood. The difference is that parents don’t get a break – it’s hard to know if there’s a night of uninterrupted sleep anywhere in the foreseeable future. Sleepless nights for kids mean sleepless nights for the rest of the family – and a grumpy group around the breakfast table in the morning.
In It’s Never Too Late to Sleep Train, Canapari helps parents harness the power of habit to chart a clear path to high-quality sleep for their children. The result is a streamlined two-step sleep training plan that focuses on cues and consequences, the two elements that shape all habits and that take on special importance when it comes to kids’ bedtime routines.
Dr. Canapari distills years of clinical research and experience to make sleep training simple and stress-free. Even if you’ve been told that you’ve missed the optimal “window” for sleep training, Dr. Canapari is here to prove that it’s never too late, whether your child is six months or six years old. He’s on your side in the battle against bedtime, and with his advice, parents and children alike can expect a lifetime of healthy sleep.

Review From Phil: I have bipolar disorder and the sleep lessons in this book probably saved my life. I bought it over four years ago and I’ve slept so well ever since. My main tip is to heed the advice to not check your clock at night; you get the amount of sleep that you get, and you can’t “will” yourself to sleep.
Goodnight!
