Do you really struggle with sleep, meal timing and movement around shift work?

Dr Olivia Walch is a shift work researcher focusing on circadian rhythms and our sleep/wake cycle.

Dr Walch is currently developing a "Shift Work" app which I have beta testers out in the real shift working field to develop this app to reach it's full potential.

We discuss the app and how it works during the episode.

In this episode we discusss, 

👉  What is a Circadian Rhythm?

👉🏻  How much of a strain is shift work on us biologically 

👉🏼  Morning Larks and Night Owls

👉🏽   The importance of regular shift work patterns

👉🏾  The importance of blue light in the morning

👉🏿  The importance of blocking blue light at night

👉  How to go into night shift

👉🏻  How to come out of night shift

👉🏼  Why do we wake up in the middle of the night in the nights following nighshift.

👉🏽  The "Shift Work App"
