About this listen
It’s hard to think of something more satisfying than getting a good night’s sleep. Why is that? What exactly happens to our bodies and our brains when we’re sleeping? If that question has ever crossed your mind, or if you have ever struggled with sleep issues, you won’t want to miss this insightful and illuminating look at the science of sleep.
Sleep neurologist Jennifer Molano explores many different aspects of sleep, helping you better understand common sleep issues and providing practical tips to improve sleep in your life.
Over the course of six lectures, she will reveal what drives our sleep-wake cycle, what “healthy sleep” is, how our sleep cycles change over time, why sleep is important in regulating systems in our brains and bodies, and what symptoms may occur with sleep disturbances. You’ll learn about some common misconceptions and myths about how to get a better night’s rest and you’ll discover the essential components of optimal sleep health.
If you’ve ever struggled with feeling well-rested or you’re just curious about what happens when we sleep, then this is the Audible Original for you.

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

Numbers. Like the alphabet, they’re one of the most elementary of concepts learned and memorized at a young age; but outside of figuring out tips and taxes, you probably haven’t given much thought to them since then. To a mathematician, every number has its own unique properties and personality - and when studied, played with, and manipulated, numbers can actually be tons of fun.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Tell a stranger that you talk to yourself, and you’re likely to get written off as eccentric. But the truth is that we all have a voice in our head. When we talk to ourselves, we often hope to tap into our inner coach but find our inner critic instead. When we’re facing a tough task, our inner coach can buoy us up: Focus - you can do this. But, just as often, our inner critic sinks us entirely: I’m going to fail. They’ll all laugh at me. What’s the use?

If you ask a Finn, they will likely be as baffled as you are. That’s why Melanie Dower, an expat who has been living in Finland for the past decade, has taken up the charge. Her vantage as an outsider entrenched in Finnish culture uniquely positions her to identify the keys to Finnish happiness that elude the rest of the world and that Finns take for granted. From sauna to strong social safety nets, Finnish life is made up of a constellation of habits and structures that leave its residents relaxed, healthy, and fulfilled.

Why are we scared of ghosts, zombies, vampires, demons, and monsters, when we know they are not real? Why do dark attics give us the creeps? How do writers and directors know exactly what anxieties to tap into, so that we break out in goosebumps, cover our eyes, and cringe? Shannon Scott invites you into the spooky, creepy, and sometimes surprising world of the horror genre to examine how popular scary movies and books manipulate our collective and individual fears—not only to frighten us, but also to address taboo subjects, and to reflect and comment on the state of our society.

From its inception, hip-hop has challenged ideas about morality, religion, and truth. Genuinely, it’s a philosophical genre. Both philosophers and hip-hop artists think about God, death, and justice, among other things. But rarely do members of these two groups talk to one another about these issues. This is a shame, given that both hip-hop and philosophy have a rich history in deep thinking and have produced exemplary thinkers.

To be human in today’s world means that you engage in constant linguistic interactions with some form of technology, from your smart phone to your refrigerator. That’s not as new a trend as you might think. Language has shaped - and been shaped by - some of our world’s most significant communication technologies. Our current language bears the marks of millennia of interaction between humans and our technologies, beginning with the very first primitive writing systems and moving into the age of the printing press, the telegraph, and the typewriter.

It's very sciency, which is good, but not entertaining and I know the purpose is not to entertain, but it's a bit difficult to focus if it's just a bunch of facts one after the other.
That said, it was insightful and the review right at the end gives really good tips to help sleep better.

Stopped listening, delivery style awful
This book might be really good but I had listened for 20 minutes and then just could not handle it any longer. It sounds like the narrator is holding a book right in front of her and reading from it. Most of the great courses actually sound like a professor up in front of people lecturing And sound way more natural. Although she had a good clear voice, it put me to sleep.

Excellent review of sleep and sleep disorders!
Dr. Molano gives an excellent, clear, concise review of sleep mechanisms and disorders geared toward the layman. The review gives a thorough update on recent concepts of the neurology of sleep and does well in summarizing sleep disorders such as narcolepsy, REM sleep behavior disorder, sleep apnea, etc. Her discussion of treatments is excellent and she even spends time on methods that can be used by everyone to help relax and promote good sleep hygiene. I am a physician and learned useful data about sleep problems in patients with Alzheimer disease,Parkinsonism, aging, etc. Very highly recommended!

A course that reads like a lecture, not a book.
If someone knows absolutely nothing about sleep and is having some issues, this may provide some basic information.
However, for anyone who has a basic knowledge of sleep and health this is a slightly boring lecture type audio.
There was some missing parts about getting a good restful night sleep is missing such as getting in the sun in the morning (this stimulates hormones for wakefulness during the day and hormones for sleep at night).
A section on nutrients was also missing. Having an optimal vitamin D level as well as optimal magnesium and other minerals are important for deep sleep.
I did finish the book/course but on speed reading to get through it as it was so very, very basic.

The topic is very interesting and I learned a lot during these lectures. The only issue here is that author didn't talk about how to increase sleep quality naturally. She is focused on medications and sleep issues. But if you are a person who doesn't have these issues and want to inhance your sleep quality, you will not find useful incormation here.
