The “sleepy rule” is a popular one. But does it always apply?

In this episode I unpack the pros and cons behind waiting until you’re sleepy to go to bed.

If you find yourself thinking:

“Am I sleepy yet?”
“Is this a good time to go to bed?”
“Is this sleepy or just fatigue?”
“What if I’m not sleepy enough?”

This podcast is for you!

I talk about:

• Chasing sleep and what that looks like
• The big idea behind waiting until you’re sleepy to go to bed
• How the brain shifts into “monitoring mode” looking for sleepy
• How it can become an unintentional means of avoidance

At the very end, I share the recommendation l offer most of my clients and why I believe: “There are no rules when it comes to sleep. Only decisions.”
