About the Book

For many people who have trouble sleeping, each night is an anxious odyssey where getting a good night’s sleep feels like a battle to win rather than a basic biologic process. Hello Sleep is a guide for people with insomnia to help them shift their relationship with sleep, so that it stops being a battle and starts being enjoyable and natural again. A practical, self-guided tour through evidence-based interventions for chronic insomnia, Hello Sleep includes cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), phototherapy, chronotherapy, mindfulness-based approaches, and medication tapering. Jade Wu, a behavioural sleep medicine specialist and researcher, provides in-depth but down-to-earth scientific explanations of how sleep and insomnia work; anecdotes about real patients’ experiences with overcoming insomnia; rationale for why the evidence-based interventions help; and tips for how to problem-solve common pitfalls, along with tailored recommendations for special circumstances (e.g., pregnancy/postpartum, menopause, chronic pain, depression, older adults etc.). Hello Sleep is not a rigid set of rules or a one-size-fits-all approach. Wu believes this can make things worse for those with insomnia issues, making what was once easy and intuitive into something effortful and elusive. Instead, Hello Sleep treats insomniacs with respect, by giving them knowledge and empowering them to trust themselves and their own sleep.

Review :
"A compassionate guide to combating insomnia...Readers struggling to get enough sleep will find a welcome resource here."--Publishers Weekly "Hello Sleep gets at a fundamental truth about insomnia that is often overlooked--overcoming insomnia is not about trying harder, but rather repairing your relationship with sleep. This book provides concrete, science-based advice, and Dr. Wu writes with insight, compassion, and humor that will help readers regain a sense of wonder and appreciation toward their sleep."--Jennifer Mundt, PhD, DBSM, Director of Behavioral Sleep Medicine at Northwestern Medicine, Assistant Professor of Neurology (Sleep Medicine) "An easy to read but factually dense guide that will take its readers from the darkness of insomnia to a new-found confidence in their own sleep. Insomnia can be fixed, and the steps are here in the pages that follow."--W. Chris Winter, MD, author of The Sleep Solution and The Rested Child "If you are tired of trying to solve the riddle of insomnia, this book will be your new best friend. Dr. Wu reveals how changing your relationship with sleep can be more important than following a list of do's and don'ts. The result is a book full of answers to those burning sleep questions along with a practical plan that will rekindle your love for sleep."--Jason C. Ong, PhD, DBSM, Behavioral Sleep Medicine Director at Nox Health, Adjunct Associate Professor of Neurology at Feinberg School of Medicine "A friendly and accessible handbook for anyone looking to get better sleep. The information is authoritative and accurate, reflecting some of the best state-of-the-science advice, presented in a way that makes complex concepts easy to grasp."--Michael Grandner, PhD, CBSM, FAASM, Director of the Sleep and Heath Research Program at the University of Arizona, and Director of the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Clinic at the Banner-University Medical Center.
