Episode notes
Treat Sleep As A Deliberate Commitment
- Decide to prioritize sleep and allocate about eight hours to the sleeping process to get ~7.5 hours of sleep.
- Keep a consistent schedule, a dark cool room, and remove phones and stimulating activities before bed.
Use Targeted Sleep Supplements Wisely
- Use non-habit-forming supplements like glycine, magnesium, and ashwagandha to help optimize sleep.
- For jet lag or forced sleep, consider short-term melatonin and phosphatidylserine under guidance.
Let Sleep Trackers Guide, Not Rule, You
- Use sleep trackers as a compliance and feedback tool but avoid becoming neurotic about the data.
- Treat tracker spikes (e.g., higher heart rate after alcohol) as helpful reminders, not guilt triggers.
