Do you have trouble sleeping, perhaps you have insomnia. Are you reaching for the coffee every morning, exhausted because it has taken you so long to fall asleep, because you've woken up multiple times or maybe you wake up super early every morning. Perhaps you're one of the many people who've been prescribed sleeping tablets, but you're looking for an alternative to help you sleep better. Well my guest today might be of interest to you. I'm joined by founder of Siest sleep, Sine Dunne. Sine is a former google employee who as a mum and business person with a hectic and stressful schedule was struggling on 5 hours sleep a night. Then a chance encounter with a sleep specialist changed not just her sleep but her also her career.

In this episode we learn about the importance of sleep and why so many of us are not getting enough.
Expect to learn about the downsides of traditional sleep aids.

We learn about the phenomenon of sleep pressure and its relationship with being sleepy at the right time of the day.
We hear about how light exposure resets our circadian rhythm.

Expect to learn tips to optimise your sleep.

We discover that not every one has the same optimum ambient temperature that promotes sleep.

Plus we learn about the link between sleep and proprioception, and how Sine has harnessed this to develop a weighted sleep aid that has been proven to be effective at improving sleep quality.
