Books about insomnia

This is why I love ai. Bard gave me a list of potential books to read on the topic of insomnia. I'm going to look them up and possibly buy and read one. Reading does make me sleepy sometimes. I've been playing a lot of chess and watching a lot of videos. They tend to make me too sleepy to continue but when I stop I don't fall asleep. Audible books and brown noise and the fan help me drift off and I've had some success with that using Alexa routines I've created.

There are a number of books available about insomnia. Some of the most popular include:

  • Insomnia: A Comprehensive Guide to Getting a Good Night's Sleep by Colin Espie

This book provides a comprehensive overview of insomnia, including its causes, symptoms, and treatment options. It also includes a number of self-help tips for improving sleep quality.

  • Say Good Night to Insomnia: A Step-by-Step Guide to Overcoming Sleep Problems by Gregg Jacobs

This book is a practical guide to overcoming insomnia. It provides a step-by-step approach to identifying and changing the thoughts and behaviors that are interfering with your sleep.

  • Sleep Donation by Karen Russell

These are just a few of the many books available about insomnia. If you are struggling with this sleep disorder, I encourage you to read one or more of these books to learn more about your condition and find ways to improve your sleep quality.
