About this title

Synopsis

From renowned ABC News anchor/correspondent and former
insomniac Diane Macedo, comes a practical, user-friendly guide to getting
better sleep. The Sleep Fix flips the switch on common advice,
illuminating the reporter’s relentless search for how to get a good night’s
sleep and the surprising, scientific, and practical solutions she found along
the way.

Roughly
thirty percent of the population is estimated to be living with insomnia, while
many more unknowingly suffer from other sleep disorders. In The Sleep Fix,
Macedo aims to change that with perspective-shifting research and
easy-to-implement solutions based not just on science and experts, but also her
own years-long struggle.

As
an early-morning reporter and overnight news anchor, Macedo learned the hard
way how valuable sleep is, and how it affects everything from our heart to our
brain to our immune system. The longer Macedo struggled, the more her health
deteriorated. Desperate, she tried standard sleep tip after standard sleep tip,
but nothing worked - instead, it made her worse.

Finally,
after developing a tolerance to sleeping pills, Macedo decided
to attack the problem as a journalist, interviewing sleep experts from all over
the world to get to the bottom of what really keeps us from sleeping—and the
various ways to fix it.

As
Macedo explains, the solution to catching zzz’s isn’t as simple as giving up
caffeine, or putting away your phone before bed. With her down-to-earth
explanations and humor, she instead teaches us how to:

• Understand sleep biology

• Identify sleep obstacles

• Flag sleep myths and separate fact
from fiction

• Try counterintuitive approaches

• Shift our mindset

Most
importantly, Macedo — a busy, working mom — teaches us how to adjust and fit
these solutions into our everyday lives. Offering expert wisdom, cutting-edge
research, intimate sleep stories from public figures, and actionable advice, The
Sleep Fix is the tell-it-like-it-is guide this sleep-deprived world has
been waiting for.
