For people who struggle to get a good night's sleep, and for the people who treat patients with insomnia, this book provides a clear and concise guide to cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). The opening series of case examples highlight the usefulness of CBT-I strategies for individuals experiencing a variety of real-life challenges. -- Jennifer L. Martin, PhD, Professor of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA Dr. Navab has taken an engaging and unique approach in Sleep Reimagined to help reinforce the importance of sleep and to make treatment interventions feel both personalized and hopeful. . . . While sleep treatment is very effective, it is not 'one size fits all' as many other self-help books suggest. Dr. Navab has nailed it, and I am sure this will be beneficial to many people coping with insomnia and other sleep disorders. -- Britney Blair, PsyD, DBSM, CST, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Dr. Pedram Navab is a very skillful storyteller and has written a series of compelling vignettes to bring to life the realities of what it is like to suffer from poor sleep. Pedram uses his unique perspective to share his insights from his experience as a sleep expert to help the reader revisualize their relationship with sleep. People with insomnia, in particular, may appreciate the latter part of the book, which provides a roadmap to better sleep health. -- Rafael Pelayo MD, author of How to Sleep Sleep Reimagined brilliantly encourages readers to use their own imagination to relate to patients from case studies, steadily building their understanding about sleep disorders while unveiling insights about treatment that the readers can then apply to their own lives. -- Gwynne Church MD, Pediatric Sleep Medicine, UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital
