About this listen

One third of our lives is spent trying to sleep. Most us have disturbed, restless nights and rely on a cocktail of caffeine and sugar to drag us through the day. Yet the hours we spend in bed shape our moods, motivation and decision-making skills - defining our performance in work, at home and while keeping fit. We need a new approach to sleep.

In this groundbreaking audiobook, Nick Littlehales, elite sleep coach to some of the world's leading sports stars and teams, lays bare his strategies for us all to use. Discover how to map your own sleep cycle, what the optimum room temperature is, which bedding is best and why napping is actually good for you.

Listen to Sleep, learn from the best in sport, and kick-start a more confident, successful and happier you.

Hard to focus on the general point of the book because of both the lack of citations - is this just personal opinion? Also constant name dropping of professionals that the author worked with was irrelevant, repetitive and boring.

Too much name dropping.

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I would definitely recommend the content but do yourself a big favour and buy the physical book rather than the audio version

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Each chapter was well summarised with clear bullet points

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator can add a huge amount to the enjoyment of the book and equally can significantly detract from it. I think it was a major error for the author to do his own narration. It is a painfully difficult listen and I could only really tackle it in 30-45minute chunks. Such a shame .....

Any additional comments?

Buy the book, buy the book, buy the book it'll be much easier to digest the content than being distracted by the narration

Some great tips but a PAINFUL listening experience

Excellent

An interesting book spoilt by the appalling narration. Afraid the author really should have got someone else to read it for him.

Dreadful narration

This book has really good and practical information. However the author sadly does not do his work any justice by self narrating the content. Quite monotone which makes listening fairly difficult especially whilst driving

disappointing

Fantastic book, and with some real life techniques and tactics to improve sleep, rest and recovery. I wholeheartedly recommend for anyone struggling with sleep

Game changing

I really struggled with this book.
It seemed like talking was too much of an effort for the reader. I felt he was boring himself.
Interesting content, but I couldn't finish it because of the reader apathy.
