This book is all about getting a great night’s sleep.

It is very informative with lots of facts, tips, and scientific studies about how to get a good night’s sleep. It is also easy to read and understand. Included is a quiz to find what keeps you from sleeping, things to do to help you sleep better, and a 21-day reset program. I took lots of notes and am implementing several of the tips to help me sleep better. So far it’s working out well. I feel more rested when I wake up in the morning. I just wish I could block out more of the light coming in through my windows from the outside. If you have trouble sleeping, pick up a copy of this book! You won’t be disappointed!

Thank you to NetGalley and Little, Brown, and Company for the ARC in exchange for my honest review!

BETTER SLEEP, BETTER YOU by Frank Lipman and Neil Parikh is subtitled "Your No-Stress Guide for Getting the Sleep You Need and the Life You Want." Lipman, the creator of Be Well (a lifestyle brand which helps people achieve life changes), is joined in this endeavor by Parikh, a founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Casper, the mattress company. Together, they provide background on aspects of sleep like melatonin and cortisol or immune resilience; in the next chapter they encourage readers to get to know their non-sleeping type (stress/anxiety, rhythm, environmental, hormonal, nutritional). They also offer a self-reflection quiz for readers to better choose a type(s) and then offer some "personalized prescriptions" in subsequent chapters that deal with pre-sleep rituals, exercise, eating patterns, and sleeping atmosphere. Overall, the tone is non-judgmental and there definitely is an action-orientation to this book with multiple, practical suggestions for each of several key age groups (babies, children, teens, and seniors), including thoughts on school start times. The final chapter ("The Reset") summarizes weekly goals to rearrange, reduce and rebuild on the way to better sleep experience. These authors provide sources but only list links so the quality and timeliness of the research is a bit more difficult to evaluate. Hopefully, a more complete bibliography will appear in the final edited version.

In Better Sleep, Better You, Dr. Frank Lipman, MD, and Neil Parikh offer easy to understand advice on how to improve your sleep, as well as clear explanations of why it’s so important to do so. I already knew that sleep is important, but I found some of the risks associated with sleep deprivation discussed in the Introduction scary.

Thankfully, most of the book is written in a friendly and encouraging tone. The authors are realistic that most of us will not have perfect sleep habits, but they offer such a wide variety of suggestions that everyone should be able to find some practical methods for improving sleep quantity and quality. Many of the recommendations are backed up by references to scientific studies, but the authors also share personal experiences.

I liked how the authors described different types of insomniacs and provided suggestions for each type. They also discuss how sleep needs change through different life stages, with special tips for children, teens, and the elderly. Throughout the book, the authors suggest different products, apps, supplements, and other resources to improve sleep.

The last chapter of the book provides a 3-week sleep reset program, which is just a very brief summary of the previously discussed recommendations, organized by a different goal each week:
(1) Change your habits to prioritize your natural rhythm.
(2) Reduce habits that are barriers to healthy sleep.
(3) Develop healthy new habits.

If you’re not getting enough quality sleep, and most of us aren’t, this book offers many helpful suggestions.

I was provided an unproofed ARC through NetGalley that I volunteered to review.

I really enjoyed this book and felt it was not as dry and boring as others on sleep. It gave lots of useful information on why sleep is important and how you can get better sleep.

This is an easy-to-use guide to fixing your broken internal clock so you can get better sleep. It delves into the different systems of the body and how they interact to affect sleep. I appreciated the scientific explanations for why the different strategies work.

The book helps you identify which sleep problems you have so you can find the best methods for correcting them. It also includes a three-week program for resetting your internal clock, something it might be helpful to repeat during the change of seasons to get you back to your optimal state.

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.
"Better Sleep, Better You" is an easy guide to how lack of sleep affects your everyday life and how to get better sleep. It offers the typical roadblocks to sleep, such as physical, stress, etc... Yes, the scientific parts were a little tiring to get through, but they were necessary to understand why sleep is so important. I did the 21 Sleep Reset and it helped me improve my sleep patterns. I liked the easy to follow suggestions on how to restart your sleep.

Better Sleep, Better You is an easy guide to how lack of sleep effects your everyday life and how to get better sleep. It offers the typical roadblocks to sleep, but goes so much further than the average how to get better sleep article. Yes, the scientific parts were a little tiring to get through, but they were necessary to understand why sleep is so important and how to improve your own sleep patterns. I liked the suggestions on how to restart your better sleep.

Thanks to netgalley and Little, Brown Spark for the arc

If you have ever wondered what affects sleep, why it's important to you and how to fix your sleep, well you may have found the right book for you. Lipman and Parikh go over hormones, environment, eating habits, stress, and other areas of your life that will affect your sleep. They explain the good, the bad and the ugly of what happens when one area is not balanced with the other, they give your the risks and the benefits. Now, this is not to replace an actual doctor, but it is a guide to help you to have better sleep. It explains all the areas of your life that are affected by lack of sleep, why you can not catch up on sleep, how much sleep and what kind of sleep you should be getting. It goes into detail about things you can do to fix your sleep habits. They even include a three-week challenge to reset your sleep. It's an overall interesting book with good details and examples.

Better Sleep, Better You is another informative book about how important it is that we get our rest.
Put down your phone and get some sleep. We’re hurting ourselves and we don’t even know it.
The was helpful, informative and beneficial to understanding why we need sleep. I liked the helpful questionnaire to narrow down potential issues. It gives step by step advice to improve sleep. Isn’t that great? I’m paraphrasing here but basically, “sleep is the clean-up crew that puts everything back together after the wear and tear of the day.”
The book talks about:
• Carcadian rhythm
• Memory
• Neurons
• Gut maintenance
• Hormones
• Immune system
• Inflammation
• Melatonin
• Endocrine system
• Sleeping pills
• Insomnia
• Sleep trackers (which I think helped me personally)
• Naps
• Exercise
• Diet
• Meditation
• Alcohol and Caffeine
• Dreams
This was good. I feel like EVERYONE needs to read this. I highly recommend it.
Thank you Little, Brown and Company via Netgalley for gifting me this ebook. I’m voluntarily leaving my review.

Most people know the general things you shouldn’t do to enhance your sleep and yet I felt that this book went one step further with tidbits and knowledge than I have read before. It’s a quick and easy read and they don’t expect you to turn into a monk they jokingly say, just give recommendations and understand that we have lives, jobs and social activities that we all need to have (they mention covid a bunch of times too). Found this informative and fast paced.

I feel like a lot of sleep self help books I have read, the authors are just presenting the same information in new ways, if that makes sense. This book was interesting and informative, but didn’t really present any new information that I haven’t previously read. If you a new reader to the sleep self help genre, I would definitely recommend this book. It is easy to read and the author lays everything out in an interesting and organized way.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for sending me an ARC of this book.

A fantastic guide to how to get more sleep.A-book that helps you learn what steps to take to really relax and to have a good nights sleep,A book I will be returning to ,anytime I’m having sleep issues.Will be recommending,#netgalley#littlebrowb

I typically do not highlight my books, but I did in this one! There were so many interesting pieces of information and suggestions that I felt I needed to mark them. The authors do a good job of taking a bunch of scientific information and boiling it down to a few easy to interpret statements. They offer good suggestions on how to re-wire your body in order to get better sleep. I will definitely be trying some of the stretches and yoga poses they described. There are a lot of recommended herbs and supplements to try instead of medications, which, while informative, may not be ok depending on your health issues and doctor recommendations. Overall, good suggestions on simple things you can do to help yourself reset and fall into better sleep habits.

Do you have trouble sleeping? This book breaks down multiple reasons why you could have this problem and then gives you multiple different answers and ways on which you can approach on how to fix this. As someone who snores all the time and feels so bad being a hindrance to my partner I was relieved to see a couple tips to try that wouldn’t cost me a fortune. This is so necessary for everyone to read in life. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This is a very comprehensive guide to getting and maintaining a healthy amount of sleep. The authors explain the components necessary to attain this level of sleep, and include a three week reset to jump-start the process. Sleep at different life stages are also explained, to help individualize the program

Science meets common sense in Better Sleep, Better You, a well organized, fact filled guide to getting that elusive good night’s sleep. Frank Lipman and Neil Parikh begin with a look at the importance of daily rhythms and how artificial light disturbs our sleep. The authors show how changes to our biological clocks also change our bodies and emotions. Chapters progress through diet and exercise to how to prepare your bedroom for optimum sleep. There’s even a section on dreams analyzing what they mean and during which sleep level they appear. Apps to improve lifestyle and sleep patterns are suggested. The final section proposes a three week body reset guaranteed to improve sleep and wellbeing.

Better Sleep, Better You is a perfect reference book for everyone’s bookshelf. Easy to read and full of advice, it’s a 5 star guide to getting 5 star sleep.

Thank you to NetGalley, Little, Brown and Company, Dr. Frank Lipman and Neil Parikh for this ARC.

I enjoyed reading this book a lot! It's full of useful information on the science of sleep - why we do it, and what we're doing wrong - and has a ton of advice adaptable for almost every situation so that its readers can improve their sleep habits. I learned a lot by reading this! Definitely would recommend as a gift for a friend interested in science or how things work - or for your friend running every day on 5 hours of sleep and not understanding why they're feeling like crap all the time!
