Listen Later

Patrick DeNicola is a Sleep Efficiency Specialist.

In his own words:

"A great man once asked me, 'Is it divine action to give to those who have not asked to receive?'

My journey to holistic wellness living started under the guidance of my father, who through practices of nutrition, meditation, karate, tai chi and knowledge of ancient history and philosophy, helped me lay a foundation of self-realization.

Though hidden underneath, this foundation grounded me once revealed and pushed me towards transformation.

As I started this path, first came the physical changes using strength training and calisthenic movements combined with nutrition I was able to transform from slightly over weight and out of shape to peak physical condition.

In training my body, my mind soon followed expanding curiously in search of more finding the greater truth of balance in life using transformative tools of yoga, meditation, and self inquiry to guide this balance towards even greater improvement of my quality of life.

Now, I guide others into similar studies involving the self, helping them along the path of transformation and bringing this experience to any who like me inquires deeper into life."

In this episode, we touch on the impact of sleep on our everyday performance, mental health, and overall wellbeing.

Patrick also shares the negative effects of external stimulants, such as excessive caffeine, what happens when we use our phones in bed, and more on blue light. He also shares his knowledge on the different sleep cycles and stages, along with the amount of sleep we should all aim for.
