An expert guide to the new health trend that is helping people
around the world feel more energised and less stressed. Saved by
the Siesta explains how siestas work and the remarkable role they
can play in overcoming the destructive effects that a shortage of
sleep can have on the brain and the body. A daytime nap fulfils all
the same functions as a night's sleep - it's hormonal, purifying,
curative, consolidating, and reinvigorating. It also helps us to
combat sleepiness, pain, depression, weak immunity, stress,
hypertension, excess weight, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
But to take advantage of all this we need to be aware of the
siesta's subtleties: its various types; the correct body position
to adopt; the times that are conducive to sleeping; the most
effective duration; the stages of sleep that heighten awareness,
cognitive performance, memory, and creativity; and how to get to
sleep quickly and wake up without feeling sleepy. Saved by the
Siesta provides all this information, and more. It is a lucid and
accessible synthesis of the science of sleep, and a practical guide
to the benefits of napping.
