Synopsis:
The Center for Disease Control considers insufficient sleep a national public health epidemic-- nearly 30% of adults and two-thirds of all high school students report they regularly get insufficient sleep. Time, effort, and intention are required to keep our sleep healthy. In Sleep Wise, Dr. Daniel Blum discusses the everyday activities and habits that play a major role in shaping sleep and overall health, including physical exercise and diet. Sleep Wise incorporates sleep science, mindfulness practices related to sleep, and real-world examples and anecdotes to support a mindful, sustainable sleep practice. Anybody who has trouble sleeping will be relieved to have this enjoyable, effective manual at their bedside.
About the Author: Dr. Daniel Jin Blum, PhD, DBSM, is a sleep psychologist and research assistant professor at NYU Shanghai.
An expert in cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, Dr. Blum trained at UC Berkeley's Sleep & Mood Research Clinic as well as Stanford's Center for Sleep Sciences & Medicine, where he was a clinical fellow. He currently leads research examining the intersections of sleep and circadian fasting, and authored Sleep Wise: How to Feel Better, Work Smarter, and Build Resilience, a book designed to improve wellbeing through sleep and mindfulness. When he is not engaging in patient care, he consults for companies focused on integrating sleep, behavior change, and technology. Dr. Blum is a transracial Korean-adoptee and resides in Shanghai.
