By Aric A. Prather
We need sleep to survive. It is as essential as food, water, and oxygen. So how can something that should be so instinctual be so hard? Dr. Prather runs a successful sleep clinic and has cracked the code to help even the most restless sleepers get a good night’s rest.
In The Sleep Prescription, Dr. Prather shares the powerful solutions that he uses to help his own patients achieve healing and restorative sleep. Going beyond the obvious solutions, Dr. Prather shares surprisingly simple yet deeply effective techniques that will help you lie back and let sleep work its magic.

Day 4: Worry Early
Day 5: You Are Not a Computer; You Can’t Just Shut Down
