Text me what you thought of the show 😊

We unpack how light shapes sleep, mood, and performance, then connect it to the real strain on shift workers and police. Practical tools for anxiety, pain, and late-night routines give listeners immediate steps while we challenge how systems value frontline health.

• why daylight calibrates circadian rhythm and melatonin
• hidden harms of indoor LEDs, screens, and blue-heavy light
• day lenses versus full blue blockers and when to use each
• simple morning light habit to anchor your clock
• breathing drills to cut anxiety and aid sleep onset
• SAD, winter mood dips, and getting outside even on cloudy days
• policing attrition, burnout, and the cost of lost experience
• funding gaps and why retention beats recruitment alone
• night driving exposure and safer post-shift wind-downs
• pen and paper by the bed, phone out of reach
