Lessons From Sleep: Part 2

This episode is the second in a series of podcasts on sleep. Are you ready to journey into the realm of the unseen, into the nocturnal world that unfolds once our heads hit the pillow? This episode of the More Movement Podcast promises to illuminate the mysteries of sleep, its stages, and its profound impact on our mental and physical health. 

Have you ever fallen asleep instantly when your head hits the pillow and woke up thinking it's a sign of excellent sleep hygiene?  I'll reveal how this might be a potential indicator of sleep deprivation. Additionally, I'll briefly explore the role of cortisol and its relationship to sleep because not all cortisol is made the same.

Did you know that we have more in common with frogs than you might think, especially when it comes to sleep and light detection? We discuss an intriguing frog study and how it relates to our skin, melanosomes, and photoreceptors in regulating our circadian rhythm. Finally, I'll share practical tips on how to reset your circadian rhythm effectively using light stimuli, relaxation techniques and a camping trip. So, join me, sit back, and let's explore the fascinating world of sleep together!
