Feeling exhausted? Rest Assured: Overcoming Sleep Disorders offers a path to better, deeper sleep.
Jo‑Ann Keith is not just the author of Rest Assured: Overcoming Sleep Disorders—she’s a survivor of many of the sleep issues she writes about. For years, she struggled with chronic insomnia, unaware that the root cause was undiagnosed sleep apnea. After undergoing a thorough sleep study at a clinic—where she was monitored overnight with electrodes and machines—Jo‑Ann was finally diagnosed and began using a CPAP machine. That intervention changed everything. It not only improved her quality of life, but also revealed the critical importance of proper diagnosis, especially in situations like surgery where untreated sleep apnea can affect treatment protocols.
Jo‑Ann also experiences restless legs syndrome, though not to a degree requiring medication. She knows firsthand the toll that poor sleep can take—how the exhaustion builds until it’s impossible to stay awake, leading to episodes of extremely heavy, almost immobilizing sleep.
Her goal in writing this book is simple: to help others find answers, take action, and regain the rest they deserve. Through education and shared experience, Jo‑Ann empowers readers to take their sleep health seriously—and find hope in the process.
Here are some of the most common sleep conditions covered in the book:
Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, night after night.
Breathing stops and starts during sleep, often with loud snoring.
An uncontrollable urge to move your legs, especially in the evenings.
