The Sleep Revolution
by Arianna Huffington
Huffington's cultural case against sleep deprivation, prompted by her own collapse: the history of sleep's devaluation, the science of what it does, the cost at work and in health, and practical steps. It is journalistic and broad rather than clinical, and it helped make sleep respectable in business culture.
Read it if…
you need to be persuaded that sleep is not a luxury before you change anything.
Skip it if…
you are already convinced; go to Walker or Winter for depth.
Three things you will actually use
- Sleep deprivation is a performance problem, not a badge.
- Bedtime rituals matter.
- Phones out of the bedroom.
Do this first
Set a bedtime alarm thirty minutes before you want to be asleep.
Our verdict
