Deliberately Better Sleep offers an effective new approach to achieving a good night's sleep, based on medical research and personal experience.
Clinical psychologist Dr Damon Ashworth starts by helping you understand why you are having trouble sleeping. Next, he takes you step-by-step through a range of strategies for a good night's sleep.
Following the guidelines in this book, you can test these strategies to find ones that will improve your sleep and suit your lifestyle.
Damon's philosophy is that one size does not fit all when it comes to sleeping. He gives you the tools to explore your sleep patterns and 10 steps to develop your personal sleep plan. Every step is underpinned by Damon's expertise, his own experiences as someone who had trouble sleeping, and his years of research into ways to sleep well.
Industry Reviews
Sleep is a core human experience common to people everywhere, yet many of us prioritise anything other than sleep in our busy lives. Unfortunately, it is often to the detriment of different facets of our lives that depend on a good night's sleep. Dr Damon Ashworth's Deliberately Better Sleep masterfully explains the fundamentals of sleep medicine in an accessible way. Damon focuses on the positive changes you can make to improve your sleep and provides some backups and alternatives for when things don't go according to plan. Deliberately Better Sleep is interactive rather than proscriptive, allowing you to tailor any changes to suit your lifestyle and focus on essential areas.

I urge everyone to partner with Dr Damon Ashworth on their journey towards Deliberately Better Sleep. This book is a game-changer, whether you are a person who is struggling with their sleep or a practitioner supporting people with sleep difficulties. Dr Damon will guide you through his 10 steps to help develop your personalised sleep solution - the steps are all achievable and easily integrated into our busy lifestyles. I've seen the positive changes that Deliberately Better Sleep can make first-hand with the clients I see in my practice as a clinical neuropsychologist. It can contribute to better sleep and less daytime fatigue. It can also have enormous benefits for thinking skills, including attention and concentration, resulting in more efficient learning and better memory!
Dr Vanessa PetersenSenior Clinical Neuropsychologist
If you are having trouble sleeping, this should be one of your first stops. Damon has combined his vast experience in treating insomnia with his accessible writing style to produce a practical tool for anyone. I will recommend this to all my clients as an adjunct to my therapy and suggest it to everyone I know who has sleep difficulties.
Dr Harvey JonesClinical Neuropsychologist
Deliberately Better Sleep is jam-packed with information in the form of practical strategies to help anyone who is struggling with sleep issues, from apps to relaxation techniques. I found myself using paradoxical intention after awakening in the middle of the night. Damon also covers the mechanisms behind good sleep.
Dr Jon FinchClinical Psychologist
Deliberately Better Sleep is not just another sleep book. Instead, Dr Ashworth brilliantly outlines an evidence-based and practical self-help guide to saving your sleep.
