Episode notes

So when we're talking about fatigue and frustration, i know one of the biggest frustrations people have is their their eye fatigue. And really what it comes down to is tis what we're called fixations, these fixations where people are reading and they're stopping at every single word. And every single time they make a stop, it takes more time and takes more energy. So for example, it's kind of like a a child is a very slow reader in the beginning, because they're looking at the individual letters, right? So it takes some time to phonetically pronounce it.

When you’re reading something, do you ever lose focus? Do you ever get tired and fatigued? Do you ever get frustrated?

When people are reading, one of the biggest complaints I hear is that they get tired while reading.

To help you with that, I brought my sleep doctor and one of my dear friends, Dr. Michael Breus, on today’s episode to talk about sleep, reading, and chronotypes (the science of best times WHEN to do things for YOUR specific body type).

He's written a number of books, including “The Power of When” and “The Sleep Doctor’s Diet Plan.”
