Stop fighting your sleepless nights and start outsmarting them.

Let's be honest, the old advice to “just relax” isn't cutting it. You're lying in bed, your mind racing, watching the clock, and the harder you try to sleep, the more awake you feel. This isn't just a bad night; it's the new normal for millions. The New Science of Sleeping Faster is your definitive guide to breaking this cycle. This book moves beyond recycled sleep hygiene tips to give you a direct look at the engine of your sleep—and the modern forces working against it.

We'll start by deconstructing the #1 reason you're awake: sleep anxiety. You'll learn how our “always-on” culture, digital habits, and even the pressure to get “perfect” sleep are rewiring your brain for wakefulness. Then, we dive into the biology. You'll discover the brain's hidden waste-clearance crew, the glymphatic system, which only works when you're in deep sleep, and why a delay in falling asleep is a critical health issue. We'll unravel the secrets of the hypothalamic “flip-flop switch” that controls your sleep, the surprising influence of your gut bacteria, and how your personal genetics dictate whether you're a lark or an owl.

What's Inside the Book

This book dissects the modern sleep crisis. It explores the rise of performance-based sleep anxiety. You will learn about the neurobiology of sleep disruption. We cover your brain's master sleep switch in the hypothalamus. The book explains the crucial glymphatic system for brain cleaning. The gut-brain connection and its impact on sleep are detailed. You will understand your genetic chronotype. We explore how to interpret data from wearables like Oura and Apple Watch. The guide covers advanced cognitive techniques from CBT-I. It explains Paradoxical Intention and Cognitive Shuffling. You will learn about Mindfulness-Based Therapy for Insomnia. The text details the rise of AI diagnostics and coaching. It reviews new FDA-cleared digital therapeutics like SleepioRx. Finally, it provides a clinician's guide to the latest DORA medications.

Other books offer generic sleep hygiene tips that barely scratch the surface. They tell you what to do but rarely explain the deep biological and psychological reasons why you're struggling. The New Science of Sleeping Faster provides a competitive advantage by translating complex, cutting-edge neuroscience into a practical, personalized action plan. It moves beyond “turn off your phone” to explain precisely how blue light disrupts melatonin and how to use technology to your advantage. It doesn't just recommend a diet; it explains the science of chrononutrition and macronutrient timing. This book empowers you with a fundamental understanding of your own biology, providing advanced, evidence-based tools that address the root cause of your sleeplessness, not just the symptoms.
