Episode #181: Revolutionize Your Nights: How to Get Quality Sleep

If you've ever felt like you're not getting enough quality sleep, or you're curious about how sleep affects overall health, then this bonus solo episode is exactly what you need. We question the narrative of "I'll sleep when I'm dead" and delve into the science behind how proper and adequate sleep influences our longevity, hormone regulation, immune system, and most importantly, brain health. 

 

If you've been compromising on your REM sleep, it's high time to change that. We talk about how REM sleep is the unsung hero for a healthy brain and share some simple yet effective strategies to protect it. We also discuss the ideal window for exercising, the importance of a good mattress, and the art of tracking your sleep patterns for best results.
