Sleep and Chronic Pain: Breaking the Vicious Cycle

If chronic pain is wrecking your sleep -- and poor sleep is making the pain worse -- this book gives you a clear, evidence-based path to break that cycle. In six simple steps, you'll learn what's actually disrupting your nights, build a real toolkit for your environment and routine, and turn it into a system that holds up even on hard nights. Inside, you'll learn: - Why sleep and pain are locked in a two-way cycle -- and how to break it from either side- How to find out exactly what's disrupting your own sleep- A real toolkit: positioning, environment, wind-down routines, and a plan for 3am wake-ups- A nightly system with a fallback plan for flare-up nights- The movement, food, and stress habits that support lasting sleep- When to seek more help, and how to keep progressing over time If you've also read Anti-Inflammatory Eating for Joint Pain and Gentle Movement for Chronic Pain, this is the third piece of the same system -- what you eat, how you move, and how you sleep, working together.
