March 05, 2023S2 Ep 02 Are you confusing sleep deprivation with burnout?
Sign up for our emails to be invited to join live recordings and ask questions at the end
*** 911 Shift Ready Podcast is moving over to the Burnout Expert Podcast. All episodes from SEason 2 can also be found on the Burnout Expert Podcast and next season all episodes will solely be found there.
In this episode, Andi dives into the question if we are confusing Sleep Deprivation with Burnout that stemmed from this quote:
Heart attacks go up in those who slept less than 7 hours a night.
Those with 5 hours sleep on average had a higher rate of coronary artery disease and heart attacks.
Immune system suffers.
Risk of cancer increases.
Mental health links sleeplessness to anger, irritability, anxiousness and depression.

Stress and sleep deprivation are pretty much aligned. There is a chance we are confusing them both.
Quoted by Sara Mednick PhD - Take a Nap Change Your LIfe
Other Golden Nuggets from this podcast episode.
Sleep is just like spending money. Eventually you have to pay it back.
STAGE 1 & 2 - LIGHT SLEEP
Stage 1 - Quick at the start of your sleep
- Increases your alertness when awake.
Stage 2 - More than half of our sleep time.
- Increases your alertness when awake.
Deep should be up to 20% of your total sleep time
90 min is a good REM sleep on average REM should be 20- 25% of total sleep time
It should take between 5 - 20 min to fall asleep. Less than 5 minutes or more than 20 minutes indicates that you are sleep deprived.
