Do you find it hard to fall asleep? Do you wake in the middle of the night and struggle to get back to sleep? Is lack of sleep affecting your performance during the day?

Between 20 and 30 per cent of Australians have a problem with sleep. Sleep expert Dr Carmel Harrington believes we have the makings of an epidemic, but she also has solutions. Drawing on the latest research, Dr Harrington provides clear explanations of:

· the role of anxiety and depression in sleeplessness · how lack of sleep affects our physical and mental health · the adverse effects of technology on sleep · sleep apnoea · sleep issues specific to women, including post-birth and menopause · how to develop and put in place a plan that addresses your particular issues.

Authoritative and accessible, this is your complete guide to putting troubled sleeping behind you and to getting the high-quality and restful sleep you need and deserve.
