Fight Fatigue with Circadian Fasting with Dr. Amy Shah!
It’s been almost a year since Covid began, and we are all feeling exhausted. In fact, 33% more of us reported feelings of burnout and fatigue in the last year. In this episode of the Wellness 360 podcast, Dr. Shivani talks with Dr. Amy Shah about her new book: I'm So Effing Tired: A Proven Plan to Beat Burnout, Boost Your Energy and Reclaim Your Life. This book is all about reclaiming energy, and it’s not a crash diet or crazy exercise plan. At its root, it’s all about the sun.
Circadian fasting is about revolving your day around sun cycles. The three basic tenets are: 1) Get direct sunlight on your body in the morning, 2) Stop eating 2-3 hours before bed, and 3) Avoid blue light 2-3 hours before bed. It’s like the more popular intermittent fasting, but better - you can still eat three meals a day, and the focus is on aligning your body with the world around you.
Dr. Amy Shah shares a wealth of information about getting your energy back, and all her steps are simple, easy to implement, and focused on the natural cadence of our bodies. Tune in to this episode for a doctor’s perspective on sleep, hormonal and immune balance, and reconnecting with the natural world.
Quotes
- “Think of it like a triangle. So the brain is in the middle of that triangle, and gut health is one one side, immune health is on one side, and hormone health is on one side. This is the energy trifecta. If any of these sides are damaged or not doing well, your brain will suffer and you’ll feel tired.” (8:01-8:25)
- “I spend a few minutes in the morning and a few minutes in the evening out of my to-do list.” (20:51-21:00)
