Episode Description

This episode is an introduction into sleep hygiene. Sleep plays a major role in how much energy we have, our ability to focus, our levels of productivity, and even our mood on a day-to-day basis. In understanding more about biology, physiology, and sleep chronotypes, it is possible to make micro-adjustments in your social life (wake up, exercise, work, and socialize, etc.) that will help you optimize your overall health and well-being. In other words, the timing of your daily activities will be more beneficial and helpful rather than harmful and unhelpful. In this segment, I share how following my intuition had both positive and negative results. I also begin discussing how to discover your chronotype, what that means, and how it relates to health and wellness.
