"Om du ska läsa en enda bok om hälsa i år: läs denna." Borås Tidning
Av sömnprofessorn känd från Skavlan.
Forskare har upptäckt en ny revolutionerande behandling som förlänger ditt liv, förbättrar ditt minne och gör dig mer kreativ. Den håller dig smal och minskar sockersuget. Den skyddar dig mot cancer och demens, parerar influensa och förkylning, minskar risken för hjärtattack,stroke och diabetes. Dessutom gör den dig lyckligare och hjälper mot ångest och depression. Är du intresserad?
Det handlar alltså om sömn. En av de viktigaste delarna av våra liv, men en del vars betydelse vi ständigt förminskar. Tills nyligen har vetenskapen inte heller kunnat svara på varför vi sover och vad sömnen gör med oss.
I Sömngåtan berättar hjärnforskaren och sömnexperten Matthew Walker om de senaste årens banbrytande forskning kring vad som händer när vi sluter ögonen i sängen och varför sömnen både är en mirakelkur och helt livsavgörande. Han förklarar hur sovandet förändras under olika skeden i livet, vad drömmarna gör med oss och hur man bäst får en god natts sömn samt inte minst, varför sömnbristen får sådana katastrofala följder för oss som individer och för vårt moderna, sorgligt sömnsvälta samhälle. Resultatet är en fascinerande bladvändare som faktiskt kan förändra ditt liv.

I Sov gott! får du med kognitiv beteendeterapi (KBT) hjälpa dig själv att sova bättre, bli piggare och gladare. KBT går ut på att du själv agerar aktivt för att förstå och förändra din situation, till exempel genom att föra sömndagbok, lägga om dina rutiner och lära dig att slappna av. Det handlar kort sagt om att skaffa nya sätt att hantera och se på tillvaron. Genom att göra nytt kommer du också så småningom att tänka nytt. Det är nämligen ofta där skon klämmer när man sover dåligt: man tänker för mycket och man tänker ?fel?. Du klarar till exempel av din dag även om du inte har sovit åtta timmar. Och det är inte alltid sömnbrist som gör att du känner dig trött. Att Sov gott! fungerar för att sova bättre, har visats i flera vetenskapliga studier med mycket goda resultat, både som bok (Jernelöv et al. BMC Psychiatry (2012) 12:5, http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-244X/12/5) och som grupp- och internetförmedlad behandling (Blom et al Behaviour Research and Therapy 70 (2015) 47-55, http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0005796715000777). Att genomföra beteendeförändringar på egen hand kan vara krävande, och vill du ha stöd av en KBT-behandlare kan du tala med din vårdcentral eller söka efter behandlare där du bor via www.kbt.nu, men faktum är att det för många fungerar utmärkt att använda Sov Gott! även utan behandlarstöd.

Sleep has hardly changed since Paleolithic humans snoozed soundly in their caves. While sabre-toothed tigers were their biggest night-time worry, today it’s stress and social media that keep us awake, but the solutions are the same, and sleep therapist Dr Merijn van de Laar offers understanding and advice to have you sleeping better within weeks. How to get a better night’s sleep in 3 weeks: Don’t believe everything you read or hear about sleepLet go of the 8-hour ruleUse the simple sleep diary in the back of this book to record your sleep pattern over 3 weeksDiscover your personal sleep needsExamine your attitude towards lying awake at nightShorter total bed times might be betterFocus on the reason for lying awake rather than on the reason for not sleepingReduce stressKeep regular bedtimesFollow the rules of natureRespect your personal circadian rhythmDon’t tempt the night-time ghostsHuman sleep as we know it today evolved hundreds of thousands years ago, to suit a hunter–gatherer lifestyle. It’s not always compatible with our modern lives, but remains an essential function, vital for our health, well-being and daytime functioning. In this groundbreaking new book, Dr Merijn van de Laar investigates the origins of sleep based on archaeological findings and anthropological studies in contemporary hunter-gatherers, looking at the major discrepancies between our primordial bodily needs and our current sleep-inhibiting behaviour.Cave dwellers lived in balance with the forces of nature. They had adapted perfectly to environmental influences such as light, temperature and seasonal variations. The way they ate and moved during the day must have had a positive effect on sleep quality. We need to look to their example, and adjust our eating, exercise, light, temperature and, last but not least: our expectations towards sleep. By taking on board the ancient wisdom of our ancestors, we will improve the quality of our sleep, the way our bodies were designed to do it.

** THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER **A GUIDE TO USING THE SCIENCE OF THE BODY CLOCK TO CREATE THE OPTIMUM PERSONAL ROUTINE: SLEEP BETTER, WORK BETTER, FEEL BETTER.'A superlative guide to some of the most intriguing questions of human existence' - Bill Bryson, author of The Body: A Guide for Occupants'Who knew our body clocks determined so much of our health, happiness, and lifespan? I learned so much' - James Nestor, author of Breath In the twenty-first century, we increasingly push our daily routines into the night, carrying out work, exercise and our social lives long after dark. But we have forgotten that our bodies are governed by a 24-hour biological clock which guides us towards the best time to sleep, eat and think.In Life Time, Professor Russell Foster shares his life's work, taking us on a fascinating and surprising journey through the science of our body clocks. Using his own studies, as well as insights from an international community of sleep scientists and biologists studying circadian rhythms, he illustrates the surprising effects the time of day can have on our health, including:- how a walk outside at dawn can ensure a better night's sleep- how eating after sundown can affect our weight- the extraordinary effects the time we take our medication can have on our risk of life-threatening conditions, such as strokesIn the modern world, we have neglected an essential part of our biology. But with knowledge of this astonishing science, we can get back into the rhythm, and live healthier, sharper lives.Sunday Times bestseller, January 2023

Endast genom att förnya vår relation till sömnen kan vi ta tillbaka kontrollen över våra liv.I Sömnrevolutionen visar Huffington hur uppfattningen om att sömn är ett sätt att slösa med tid äventyrar vår hälsa och undergräver vårt arbetsliv, vårt privatliv och vårt sexliv.

Work in clinical and laboratory settings has indicated that lack of bright light during the day can compromise mood, accelerate cancer growth, and impair cognition. Even sustained exposure to the equivalent of a child's night light has been shown to have an impact on everything from how well our brains function every day to how well our bodies recover from injury. Professor Randy J. Nelson brings together the most reliable research on the different ways exposure to light at night affects how our bodies function and, ultimately, our health. Each chapter explores the role of light and dark in our bodies' most important regulatory processes.In humans, virtually every aspect of our physiology and behavior is mediated by our internal biological clocks. One feature of modern life that may have negative consequences for our health is exposure to light levels that are not aligned with the 24-hour solar day. Circadian rhythms, the internal biological rhythms of our body's processes, require short wavelength (blue) light early during the day to optimize their temporal regulation. Experiencing light at night or insufficient light during the day can lead to a host of problems such as obesity, major depression, bipolar depressive disorder, seasonal affective disorder, sleep disorders, cancer, heart disease and more. Dark Matters sets out to shine a light on the health and well-being consequences of poor circadian hygiene and provide strategies to offset the negative health effects of disrupted circadian rhythms.

This first of two volumes presents groundbreaking information on sleep apnea in children and youths. It provides easily comprehensible instruction ideal for students; practicing dental, medical, and allied medical practitioners; and researchers who wish to expand their knowledge base on this critical interdisciplinary topic. The book contains practical and well-documented case examples, which are not theoretical but illustrate common patient problems and effective, unparalleled interdisciplinary treatment strategies.There is a disconnect on how health professions perceive and treat the causes of upper airway conditions. Various comorbidities can result from sleep apnea, oxygen deprivation, and upper airway conditions. This book connects oropharyngeal structure to metabolic disease through the practice of teledontics. Teledontics as a new interdisciplinary integrative medical–dental approach for treatment of obstructive sleep apnea is emerging rapidly. It relates oxygen needs of the body in addition to other nutritional requirements, focusing on how oxygen insufficiency can lead to multiple health comorbidities.

A brilliant overview of that most vital, most underrated and most elusive of human activities, sleep.Using the approach and skills he deployed to such successful effect on the relationship between mind and body in the prize-winning ‘The Sickening Mind’, likeable British popular science author Paul Martin here tackles the science of that most mysterious, elusive and alluring of human activities, sleeping, and draws on both cutting-edge neuroscience and classic literature to do so.We spend one third of our lives asleep, but know hardly anything about it, and can remember so little of it as we come out of it. Why?Are dreams the place we go to resolve our problems, emasculate our fears and rehearse our hopes? Why are we paralysed when we dream? Why did sleep evolve?And is anybody getting enough sleep?

We need to look to their example, and adjust our eating, exercise, light, temperature and, last but not least: our expectations towards sleep. By taking on board the ancient wisdom of our ancestors, we will improve the quality of our sleep, the way our bodies were designed to do it.
