Did you know that women have 70,000 thoughts per day and one person's brain generates more electrical impulses each day than all the telephones in the world combined? In "Brain Fitness for Women," health writer Sondra Kornblatt offers an entertaining look at how women's brains work: the physiology of women's brains, new research in neuroscience, the differences between women's and men's brains, and how women's brains age. Kornblatt offers fun facts (yep, that chocolate you're craving does boost cognitive function), tips (your brain wants a glass of water in the morning), and advice (forget multitasking, the brain can only process one thing at a time) for women who want to keep their minds in tiptop shape. She examines how hormones, the environment, exercise, stress, food, aging, and even friendship affect the brain, and offers strategies for keeping your brain on its metaphorical tiptoes at any age.

Tonight, millions of us will battle insomnia. We will plump pillows, rehash arguments, fold laundry, take sleeping pills, and watch TV. They'll seek sleep but not find it. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the States, up to a third of all Americans suffer from occasional or chronic wakefulness. Prescriptions for sleeping pills have increased 60 per cent in six years, even though recent medical research (Journal of American Medicine, June 2006) shows that behavioural therapies such as Restful Insomnia are more effective for sleeplessness than pills. "The Restful Insomnia" five-part programme is easy to make a part of each night's rest by offering techniques that help the sleep-deprived to accept insomnia, befriend the night, and greet the morning refreshed. "Restful Insomnia" shows readers how to end the war with sleeplessness by learning to use their waking night hours to quiet the mind, replenish their inner creativity, and relax deeply - deriving many benefits of sleep.
