Every experience, good or bad, teaches us another lesson in life. With age comes the wisdom we’ve developed from exploring—and refining—our perspective over the years, according to today’s guest. 

 

In this episode, I’m joined by functional medicine pioneer and sleep expert, Dr. Frank Lipman. His latest book, Better Sleep, Better You, is a roadmap for those who struggle with sleep quality. Not only does he explore the importance of sleep, but Frank also reveals how to find ways of improving your sleep to live a better life. 

 

We’ll hear his philosophy on living, the impact of medications, and his predictions for where medicine is heading in the future.

 

We covered:

 

• How Frank navigated shifts in his medicine career based on his values
• The reasons why he views his “old age” with a positive attitude 
• How the ordinary things we do daily have an extraordinary healing effect
• One catalyst that shifted Frank’s views on sleep as a pillar of health
• Little changes that can make a huge difference on your sleep quality
• Increasing your lifespan vs. staying healthy and vital for longer
