“Gold Medal Sleep deserves a place among the classics of modern sleep writing. Brad Wolgast speaks directly to readers with warmth, clarity, and a rare kind of honesty that instantly builds trust. Too many insomnia self-help books rely on fear and intimidation to drive change; this one takes the more effective and humane path of growth through education. It’s funny when it needs to be, scientifically rigorous throughout, and consistently engaging. Humans may indeed be the only animals capable of developing a sleep disorder simply by worrying about sleep, but we are also the only ones clever enough to write books like this that fix it.”

—W. Chris Winter, MD, author of The Sleep Solution and The Rested Child

“In Gold Medal Sleep, Dr. Brad Wolgast provides a brief, accessible, and friendly introduction to the science of behavioral sleep and circadian health. It is practical, straightforward, and easy to read, but it also keeps itself firmly planted in established, well-validated sleep strategies. Rather than chasing trends, Dr. Wolgast reminds readers of the power of the fundamentals and maintaining a healthy frame of reference when approaching sleep health.”

“Dr. Wolgast brings together his personal experiences and professional expertise to offer a compelling and accessible approach to resetting the circadian rhythm through the idea of ‘camping in.’ The idea is simple, elegant, and aligns beautifully with what we know about sleep science. This is a warm, engaging, and practical guide that reflects Dr. Wolgast’s clinical skill and his genuine care for the people he serves.”
