Praise for SLEEP TO HEAL: Refresh, Restore, and Revitalize Your Life by Dr. Abhinav Singh with Charlotte Jensen SLEEP TO HEAL is wonderfully written.

This book makes the compelling case for each of us to utilize simple tools at our disposal to take full advantage of what nature tries to teach us. All would be wise-and will live longer and better-to heed sage medical advice springing from lessons of nature still being discovered. - Dr. Bill Buffie, internist; former CEO of IIMC, Indiana's largest multispecialty physician group; and author Lessons learned from reading SLEEP TO HEAL: I have a terrible ZQ, and I'm not taking my sleep elevator to the right floor.
