★ An essential book for understanding why sleep and rest are fundamental for coping with anxiety and the pace of modern life.

Do you find it difficult to fall asleep? Do you wake up in the middle of the night? Do you feel tired when you wake up every morning? In just one generation, we have managed to live connected to everything... except ourselves. We sleep less, worse, and later.

The body does not understand deadlines or alarms: only cycles, light, and silence. When we violate them, it protests without words, with a yawn, a distraction, a forgotten word, until it does so with symptoms: irritability, insomnia, exhaustion. In this world that never turns off the lights, sleeping seems an anachronistic gesture, almost an unproductive luxury.

And yet, sleep remains our most sophisticated repair system. While we sleep, the brain cleans up the day's debris, reorganizes memories, regulates emotions, and repairs the body from within.

In Sleep to Live, Professor of Psychology Alfredo Rodríguez-Muñoz offers a rigorous and accessible look at the subject, in which readers will find answers, tools, and a profound reflection on the importance of sleep in everyday life.

A book about how to sleep better and how to rest again in a world that doesn't know how to stop.

Alfredo Rodríguez-Muñoz is a professor of psychology at the Complutense University of Madrid and an expert in sleep, well-being, and occupational health. For more than twenty years, he has been researching how rest, stress, and working conditions influence health, performance, and everyday life. His work has been published in international scientific journals, and he regularly collaborates with the media and organizations in the transfer and practical application of scientific knowledge about sleep. This book is born from a conviction backed by evidence: sleeping well is not a luxury, but a basic necessity for living better.
