Sleep better, and handle the morning after.
OUR EDITORIAL APPROACH
Better Next Days is Julian Talbot’s companion website to Better Nights, Better Next Days. We help adults think through everyday sleep arrangements and the decisions that follow a difficult night.
Our editorial desk uses AI-assisted research and drafting, with checks against the cited sources and the book’s practical framework. AI can make mistakes. These articles have not been independently reviewed by a clinician unless a named reviewer is explicitly shown.
Articles link to the sources supporting their health claims. We prioritise public-health agencies, clinical guidelines and original research. Examples include the NHS, NIH, CDC, NICE and NHTSA. We distinguish an established recommendation from a limited study or a practical suggestion.
Publication dates appear on each article. Evidence can change; a date is not a promise of ongoing clinical review. If a source or statement needs correcting, please send us the article URL and the issue.
The website and book provide general education, not diagnosis, treatment or individual medical advice. Persistent, unexplained or worsening fatigue deserves appropriate assessment. ME/CFS is a specific illness and is not interchangeable with ordinary tiredness. General activity advice must not be used to push through post-exertional symptom worsening.
If you are sleepy, do not drive or perform safety-critical work. Caffeine, a nap or a planning checklist does not certify that you are safe to do those tasks. Urgent symptoms require local emergency or clinical help.
Article images are AI-generated illustrations. The people pictured are not patients, customers or clinicians endorsing the book. Scenarios illustrate a decision; they are not testimonials or documented case histories.
We sell the book and companion pack and link to it from relevant articles. The three free resources offer a way to try the approach first. Buying the book is not a condition for seeking help or using the health information linked from our articles.
