50 Things You Can Do Today to Manage Insomnia

50 Things You Can Do Today to Manage Insomnia by Wendy Green is a concise, practical, and genuinely useful guide for the millions of people who struggle with poor sleep — whether that means difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking through the night, early morning waking, or a persistent sense of exhaustion despite spending adequate time in bed. Part of the popular '50 Things' series, this book offers fifty specific, evidence-based steps that readers can take to understand and address the root causes of their sleep difficulties.

The book covers a wide and well-researched range of strategies: establishing consistent sleep schedules that align with the body's natural circadian rhythms, creating a sleep environment optimised for rest, practising sleep hygiene principles that most people know in theory but rarely implement consistently, using relaxation and breathing techniques to manage the arousal that prevents sleep onset, addressing the anxiety and hypervigilance around sleep that paradoxically makes insomnia worse, and making dietary and lifestyle adjustments that support healthy sleep biochemistry.

Wendy Green writes with the clarity and accessibility that has made the '50 Things' series so widely valued — each suggestion is explained clearly, without unnecessary jargon, and presented in a format that busy, tired readers can actually engage with and apply. The book is structured so that readers can work through it systematically or dip in to the strategies most relevant to their specific situation.

Whether your insomnia is recent and situational or chronic and deeply entrenched, 50 Things You Can Do Today to Manage Insomnia offers a comprehensive, compassionate, and practical starting point. A reassuring companion for anyone who has spent too many nights staring at the ceiling — and who is ready to do something about it.
