Sinopsis

Sleep Habits: The Science of Rest for Mind and Body reveals how consistent, quality sleep underpins mental clarity, emotional stability, and peak cognitive performance. Challenging the myth that productivity requires sacrificing rest, the book positions sleep as an active biological process that repairs neural networks, balances neurotransmitters, and solidifies memories. Grounded in decades of research, it explains how circadian rhythms and sleep stages like REM and deep sleep act as invisible architects of daily performance—repairing the brain during deep sleep, for example, or processing emotions through dream cycles.

 
The book uniquely bridges lab-based science with real-world application, showing how erratic sleep schedules disrupt the body’s internal clock, leading to metabolic issues, stress spikes, and impaired decision-making. It dismantles cultural assumptions that equate busyness with effectiveness, highlighting studies where students and professionals boosted achievements simply by aligning sleep patterns with their biological needs. Structured for clarity, early chapters decode sleep biology before linking specific habits to outcomes like emotional resilience or creativity. Later sections offer practical strategies—optimizing light exposure, designing personalized schedules—while addressing modern dilemmas like screen time or shift work.

 
What sets Sleep Habits apart is its interdisciplinary lens, weaving neuroscience, psychology, and public health into a compelling case for sleep as society’s untapped performance enhancer. By blending clinical data with relatable stories of transformed careers and relationships, it makes sleep science accessible without oversimplification. The result is a roadmap for anyone seeking to harness rest as the foundation of success.

Exploring My Limits

Dwayne Fields

Exploring My Limits is a W. F. Howes Audio Original, written and recorded by Dwayne Fields: adventurer, explorer, presenter and the first black British person to reach the magnetic north pole.

As a young child in wild Jamaica, Dwayne Fields loved both nature and wildlife. Yet after moving to the UK at the age of six, his formative years were in the concrete jungle of inner-city London, where he became a victim of both knife and gun crime. In 2010, following a life-threatening incident, Dwayne made the decision to change his path, and his life, forever.

Dwayne set himself the challenge of becoming the first black British person to reach the magnetic North Pole. Upon doing so he was invited to Buckingham Palace, joining other polar explorers and adventurers at a reception to mark the centenary of Scott’s expedition to the South Pole.

His drive to engage and enthuse a new generation with our natural spaces, the climate challenges we face, and adventure, have led to Dwayne working on a variety of projects with household names such as Will Smith, Bear Grylls, Ellie Simons and Tim Peak. He is dedicated to inspiring young, underprivileged people to explore the ‘great outdoors’ – and in doing so push past society’s expectations of them and smash their own self-imposed boundaries.
In a series of frank and insightful conversations – with people ranging from fellow mould-breakers to world-famous explorers – Dwayne questions where those limits are, why they are in place, and what we can do to break them down in order to improve and change lives.

Dwayne speaks to:
• Adebayo Akinfenwa – a professional footballer told he was ‘the wrong size’ to ever make it
• Ben Fogle – the renowned explorer talks about the importance of being out in nature
• Maya-Rose Craig (aka Birdgirl) – the British-Bangladeshi ornithologist and author talks about her VME initiative Black2Nature and growing up not seeing ‘faces like mine’
Plus more people he has encountered in his journey to inspire underprivileged youth to transform their lives.

About the author
Dwayne Fields is an acclaimed explorer and the UK’s Chief Scout. Amongst other accolades, Dwayne’s TV series Endurance: Race to the Pole with Ben Fogle was nominated in the 2024 BAFTA awards, and Dwayne has been awarded the City of London’s highest honour, ‘The Freedom of the City of London’ by the Lord Mayor for his work with young people.
