Showing results for "sleep" in Social Sciences

Daniel Everett, then a Christian missionary, arrived among the Pirahã in 1977 - with his wife and three young children - intending to convert them. What he found was a language that defies all existing linguistic theories and reflects a way of life that evades contemporary understanding. The Pirahã have no counting system and no fixed terms for color. They have no concept of war or of personal property.

Ellen Boehm, a single mom from St. Louis, Missouri, appeared devoted to her children. But in reality, she was unequipped for motherhood, financially strapped, and desperate. Within a year of each other, her sons, ages two and four, died mysteriously, and Boehm's eight-year-old daughter then suffered a near-fatal mishap when a hair dryer fell into the girl's bath. While neighbors wondered how Boehm remained so calm through it all, Det. Sgt. Joseph Burgoon of St. Louis Homicide had darker suspicions.

Sleep lässt dich einschlafen. Erst wirst du mit ein wenig Geplauder von deinen Alltagssorgen abgelenkt, dann kommt eine einfache Entspannung, bevor es mit einer nagelneuen Gute-Nacht-Geschichte auf Traumreise geht. Die Menschen in den Geschichten leben rund um den Globus und ihre Erlebnisse sind zwar nicht langweilig, aber sicher auch nicht zu spannend - einfach entspannend. Genau das, was dein Gehirn zum Einschlafen braucht! Wer dann noch nicht schlummert, kann den beruhigendsten Soundkulissen unseres Planeten lauschen, die genau zur Geschichte passen: dem Knarzen von Segeln im Wind, Zikaden...

In her new book, Arianna reveals all the ways that our inability to get enough sleep impacts our lives; undermines our decision making; compromises our health, our athletic performance, our work lives, our relationships and even our sex lives; and causes us to lose control over how we interact with others and engage with the world. She discusses the latest science on sleep, explores the importance of dreaming, tackles how technology changes our sleep cycles and explores ways to get better and more restorative sleep.

When Ada Calhoun found herself in the throes of a midlife crisis, she thought that she had no right to complain. She was married with children and a good career. So why did she feel miserable? And why did it seem that other Generation X women were miserable, too? Calhoun decided to find some answers. She looked into housing costs, HR trends, credit card debt averages, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw a pattern: sandwiched between the Boomers and Millennials, Gen X women were facing new problems as they entered middle age, problems that were being largely overlooked.

Sometimes a sleep meditation puts too much pressure on it. Sometimes sleep music is anything but peaceful. But me talking? Tried and true method to put you right to sleep (ask any of my exes).

One in four adults sleeps badly. Sleeping pill prescriptions have increased dramatically over the last three decades, and our bookshelves and browser histories are littered with experts promising to 'fix' our insomnia. But is this so-called sleep crisis anything new? Our relationship to sleep has always been irregular and changeable, shaped by social conventions, commercial imperatives and personal psychologies. Look beneath the headlines and it seems that there is no such thing as a perfect night's sleep. Here Darian Leader reveals the history and pathology of sleeplessness.

The future may still be unpredictable, but nowadays, disasters are not. We live in a time of constant, consistent catastrophe, where things more often go wrong than they go right. So why do we still fumble when disaster hits? Why are we always one step behind? In The Devil Never Sleeps, Juliette Kayyem lays the groundwork for a new approach to dealing with disasters.

A novice Welsh historian attempts a modern-day Arthurian quest to understand the heritage of his people, the origins of its values, customs, and language, through literature, poetry, legends, and maybe a bit of Welsh magic ending in a hunt for the true Dragon bloodline of the Royal Welsh Family, lost in history? Or hidden in our modern world. Let's embark on this quest together.https://www.patreon.com/wheredragonssleepInstagram: @wheredragonssleepYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYZddJPbG_-6sfIsXZdIYcw

Escape the trap of endless doom-scrolling on your phone and enter a mystical world of audio-based enchantment. Picture Miss Honey from Matilda whispering a bedtime story into your ear, creating the audio version of a warm cup of tea combined with a long hug for your nervous system. Ever since childhood, I've been plagued with racing thoughts and existential dread at bedtime. The only thing that ever helped me sleep was listening to bedtime stories on tape or CD (major '90s baby energy, I know.) I've always been particularly fascinated with the esoteric (hidden) wisdom of both Eastern and ...
