Most people think good sleep is about getting 8 hours.
But if your bedroom is overstimulating your nervous system, you can sleep all night and still wake up foggy and drained.
In this episode of the Kwik Brain Podcast, I sit down with Jack Dell’Accio, CEO and Founder of Essentia and a certified Sleep Coach who has spent more than two decades optimizing sleep for elite performers. Jack has worked closely with top athletes across the NBA, NFL, MLS, and NHL, helping them improve reaction time, recovery, and cognitive performance through better sleep quality.
Because sleep is one of the most crucial components of peak performance.
And the wrong environment can keep your brain stuck in light sleep, pull you out of deep sleep and REM, and quietly sabotage your memory, focus, mood, and recovery, even if you are doing everything else right.
In this episode, you will learn:
✅ Why “8 hours” of sleep can still leave you exhausted
✅ The difference between sleep hygiene and sleep environment and why both matter
✅ The biggest hidden stimulants that keep your nervous system on high alert at night
✅ How temperature changes during sleep can trigger wakeups and lighter sleep cycles
✅ The problem with toxins and off gassing materials in most mattresses
✅ How coils can amplify EMF exposure and disrupt recovery
✅ Why deep sleep and REM are the real drivers of brain performance and healing
✅ Jack’s 3 step priority framework for upgrading your sleep environment
✅ Simple ways to reduce nighttime stimulation and protect your recovery starting tonight
This episode is about removing what is quietly preventing your brain from fully recovering, so you can wake up clear, calm, focused, and ready to perform.
