Ep 119: Are you sabotaging your sleep?

In this episode, we return to the vital topic of sleep. Sleep really is the bedrock of our wellbeing, and if we’re not getting enough quality sleep, it undermines all the other things we do to stay healthy.

We look at sleep through the lens of our daily habits and explore some of the ways we might be unintentionally depriving ourselves of the sleep we need. It could be what we do earlier in the day (e.g. consumption of caffeine), what we do in the evening (e.g. screen time) or the way we’ve set up our sleeping environment.

Small changes can make a big difference, but as we point out in this episode, don’t make too many changes at the same time. Experiment slowly to find the sleep receipt that works for you.
