The Insomnia Diaries: How I Learned To Sleep Again

A Financial Times readers' best 2021 summer book One woman's struggle to get a good night's sleep 'Powerful' - The Daily Mail After a single, catastrophic event, journalist Miranda Levy had one sleepless night, then another, and then another. She sought help from anyone she could: doctors, a therapist, an acupuncturist, a hypnotist, a reiki practitioner and a personal trainer - but nothing seemed to work. Sleep, wellbeing and mental health are intrinsically linked. Yet sleeplessness is surprisingly common: 70 million North Americans suffer from insomnia, and the sleep industry is worth $100 billion. In The Insomnia Diaries, Miranda Levy tells the story of her experience of severe, disabling insomnia that affected every aspect of her life for years, and how she ultimately recovered. Part memoir, part reportage, this book will help anyone who struggles to get a good night's sleep - whether occasionally or all of the time - appreciate the issues and understand the options as they find their best way to get the rest they need. Dr Sophie Bostock, scientist, sleep expert and member of the team who developed the award winning digital program Sleepio, contributes a foreword. She and a host of expert contributors have advised on the medical elements throughout the text.
