'Unlock the mysteries of your sleeping mind with this journey into dreams' DAVID EAGLEMAN

Everybody sleeps - but are we unlocking the full potential of our dreaming minds?

Sleep is essential. It allows our brains and bodies to repair, rejuvenate and perform critical functions. It also allows us to dream - and dreaming, it turns out, is just as essential. Shining a light onto the deepest corners of our minds, sleep scientist Michelle Carr uncovers the hidden links between dreaming and wellbeing. She reveals how to problem solve in your sleep, why micro-dreaming is essential for creativity and what nightmares are really telling us - along with how to master them.

Drawing back the covers on how the nocturnal brain works, this is the essential guide to revolutionise both your sleeping and waking health.

'An accessible and persuasive primer on the incredible and long-overlooked power of nightmares and dreams' ALICE ROBB
