  • #18: How Sleep Links To Our Mental & Physical Health

    A good night’s sleep is incredibly precious to have and important for our health.


    It should be as important as eating healthy and exercising.

    Unfortunately, there are various reasons that can interfere with our natural sleep patterns.

    People are now sleeping less than they did in the past, and sleep quality has decreased as well.

    In today’s episode, we are thrilled to have Dr. Eti Ben Simon, a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Human Sleep Science at UC Berkeley in California, directed by Matthew Walker, to share her research and insights on the science of sleep, and how we can maximize the benefits of our rest time to really recover, regenerate and heal from our day’s activities.

    In this episode we will cover:
    - The stages of sleep
    - What happens in each stage that corresponds to the rest of the body
    - Teenage Sleep: why do they sleep later- the delayed body clock
    - Chronotype: e.g. Night Owl - Why is it important to understand your chronotype
    - Can you change your chronotype
    - Parkinson's, Cognitive Delay, Cardiovascular disease and how these relate to sleep
