ZOMBIE FAMILIES

The purpose of this book is to help families explore how sleep deprivation is affecting both individual and family dynamics. Family experiences affect virtually every aspect of our lives, including self image, motivations, attitudes and interpersonal relationships. We now have evidence that family dynamics also shape the quality, quantity, and nature of our sleep life. The family issues impacting our sleep and the family issues impacted by our sleep appear to be every bit as important, complicated, and nuanced as the family issues affecting our waking hours. In this short book, we will discuss the avalanche of problems that occur when we don't get enough high quality sleep. We will explore sleep problems at each developmental stage and trace how family dynamics influence each person's sleep patterns. We will highlight the bidirectional relationship between sleep and family dynamics and offer a variety of strategies to improve family sleep.
