[01:00] It's Important To Prioritize Your Sleep So You Can Win The Day
During sleep, your body and your mind will repair.
Also, during sleep, your body will store hormones and burn fat.
Sleep will let you make better decisions for the next day. When you're sleep-deprived, your ability to make good decisions goes out the window.
REM sleep is recharging your brain, and it allows us to make good decisions. When the prefrontal cortex is energized and refreshed, we can make great choices throughout the day.
[05:10] Mental Health: What Role Does Sleep Play?
If you have ever been chronically sleep-deprived, you know how mentally terrible you feel.
When we are not taking care of our mental health, it leads us back to making poor decisions.
A lack of sleep can make us irritable, angry, frustrated, and even lead to road rage.
Also, with a lack of sleep, your reaction time gets decreased.
[11:20] What Is REM Sleep and How Much Do I Need?
There are so many factors that go into how much REM sleep you need.
20% – 25% of your sleep should be deep, and the same goes for REM.
Sleep is dynamic.
You need to figure out how much REM sleep is optimal for you.
If you wake up and you feel refreshed, mentally and physically, that's a good sign that you're getting enough REM sleep.
[15:00] Why Do We Sleep, Anyway? It’s Great For Your Physical Body!
Sleep helps with physical restoration. Growth hormones are released throughout the night.
Sleep deprivation will actually impact the man’s testicle size.
Devin recommends reading Why We Sleep: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06Y649387/benazadi-20
Deep sleep happens during the first quarter of the night. During deep sleep, your body is cleaning the cells.
When you're not getting enough sleep, that throws off your insulin which leads to food cravings and food addiction.
[18:30] You’re Not Getting Quality Sleep. That’s A Problem For Your Cortisol.
Cortisol naturally should be highest in the morning.
When you’re not getting enough sleep, your cortisol levels will stay high.
If you’re not getting quality sleep, hormones are dysregulated. Then, your blood sugar will go all over the place. So, you crave sugar!
When glucose goes up, ketones go down.
[21:20] Caffeine’s Surprising Connection To Sleep Problems
Caffeine blocks the adenosine receptors.
The more caffeine you drink, the less you are letting your body rest.
Caffeine gets in the way of getting quality sleep. When you’re not getting quality sleep, you’re in sleep debt.
Plus, caffeine will dysregulate your circadian rhythm.
People metabolize caffeine at different rates in different ways.
[27:45] Sleep Tips: Create A Bedtime Buffer Between Day and Night
Having a buffer of time between your day and your night is very important.
The most important transition of the day is the transition from your actual day to the night.
When you have a buffer, then you won’t bring your stress to bed.
Taking a walk is a great buffer.
You can also do a hobby as a buffer like playing music, learning something, or reading.
[34:00] Why Eating Before Bedtime Is Actually A Bad Idea
Your body doesn’t want food right before bed.
You shouldn’t eat three to four hours before bedtime. However, it also depends on how fast you metabolize.
Eating late will absolutely affect your sleep.
Make sure to go to sleep in a fasted state.
It’s challenging for busy people. However, it’s something that you can work on every day.
[36:00] How To Optimize REM Sleep and Deep Sleep
Incline sleeping can improve deep sleep.
Sleeping on a 5 to 7-degree incline has been found to increase glymphatic drainage.
It's not so much what you do. It's what you don't do. For instance, don’t eat!
Also, don’t take vitamin D before bed.
Sleeping in a cold room is great for deep sleep.
AND MUCH MORE!
