Circadian Rhythm and Light Exposure

Deep sleep is where your body heals and your brain detoxifies. Missing it night after night could be why you’re exhausted, foggy, or stuck in poor health.

Healthy people sleep well, and better sleep creates a healthier you. But most people are doing it all wrong.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Peter Martone to reveal the overlooked fundamentals of sleep: the best body position, why safety and trauma affect your subconscious, how circadian rhythm and light dictate melatonin, why late-night eating destroys deep sleep, and how to rewire your nervous system to actually let go and fall asleep.

This could be the most important conversation you listen to if you’ve tried everything else and still wake up tired.

"You don't just become a better sleeper and then become healthier. You become healthier, and the byproduct is better sleep." ~ Peter Martone
