I can support his claims of being an early/late riser. I majored in neuroscience. My tutor was doing her Phd on that very topic. It's genetic, we're locked in. Choose a partner who is the same. Period. Stop worrying about getting sleep. Almost no human lives without sleep. You will collapse, eventually. Most of us are simply not physically exhausted. Also, as we age the sleep requirement changes with age.

I am a very light sleeper and my husband moves a lot and snores, so we tried the “sleep divorce” and it’s been amazing:) We both sleep so much better and I’m not cranky and resentful for lack of sleep. We snuggle for a bit and then go to sleep in separate bedrooms. We are fortunate to have to space to do that. I know not everyone has that. We do find people think we’re odd though. But who cares, it works for us!

As a mother to a 2 year old and a baby on the way, I can’t describe how awful it’s been not being able to sleep the amount I need to function. And it was really interesting to hear about the correlation between suicide and sleep, because when I was at my worst sleep deprivation between newborn and 6 months of life with my first, she would wake every 45 mins through the night, every night, I fantasised about suicide daily because I felt that sick that I used to think maybe if I was dead I’d be allowed to sleep and the torture would stop. I had terrible PPD and PPA, which just vanished within days as soon as I started getting some adequate sleep again. It’s truly horrific what parents go through and I think as a society here in the west (speaking as someone in the UK) a lot of us have no village anymore, and it’s hugely detrimental to our health as new parents, and society isn’t set up to help each other anymore with this as we all live so far from our families and extended families. I see a huge difference with cousins who are still living in Cyprus and have extended family around, because everyone helps with the babies and mum and dad get some rest and are much better functioning humans because of it.

Another topic that needs to be explored in huge detail. It literally derails you. The most important figure in this new humans life. For years I wanted to get into Antenatal Health for this reason and for many more. The whole spectrum of issues related to caring for new humans needs more exploring more understanding. At the core women need more support. Your right our modern society is not designed to support women through some of the most stressful years of life. It’s no wonder people are having less, the emotional toll of an under-supported family unit results in generations of traumatised individuals, sick individuals. So we know those first 7 years are vital. Let’s design a government intervention family support system that works with mothers and their kids in those early years. Let’s set it up that Women are liaising with each other. Encouraging more community more support. Let’s bring back the village.

@@Truthseekingdivinefemale There definitely needs to be more support for all, and I'm especially concerned by the lack of community support for (especially undiagnosed) disabled children and (undiagnosed) disabled people who want to be parents. My childhood was profoundly awful for having a lack of correct support (I'm autistic, ADHD and mildly dyslexic but being a woman who is extra sensitive and technically intelligent [none of the conditions affect intelligence contrary to public perception] my disabilities were not fully obvious to people or diagnosed correctly at the time) at the moment raising neurodiverse children is incredibly demanding because the correct support doesn't exist (having been previously built on the idea you can 'fix' a neurotype by demanding a disabled person with different needs ignores their needs and puts additional efforts into seeming less disabled). My disabilities stop me from ever wanting children (especially the whole anything touching my skin hurts/I have a blood phobia too, so I don't feel like splitting body parts open to allow out other humans thanks, part) but there are many neurodiverse people who would make incredible parents who want kids or don't realise they are disabled until they have kids. It's a form of eugenics to deem disabled people as unworthy parents and disabled children as unworthy of existing. That's where a community is extra necessary for providing the necessary support and helping all members of society thrive.

Kate Brennan. I have been writing to my State Senator for the past four years about this. I have done some research and conversations at the public library near my job. Most parents agree that it's important to teach their children to sleep enough hours per night and have a nap sometime in the afternoon. Like a power nap per se. Perhaps, if the men and women in government made it a *must* or a *law* that children and teenagers who attend classes need to have at least thirty or forty minutes naps. It will help them, as Matthew Walter says, it will help the people remember most facts. But the discipline of sleep, exercise, etc should always start at home. I have seen the impact of power naps on my oldest niece; her grades went from Ds to Bs. I guess depends on each person's physiology. But it is a start.

It’s especially hard when you’re young. So many kids are put to bed too early for the convenience of the adults leaving them to toss and turn and a lifetime of insomnia. And teenagers are very sleep deprived so when they’re expected to be physically and mentally present at school at 8:00 am it’s no wonder they don’t do well. It’s an enormous luxury to be able to sleep when you’re tired and get up when you’re fully rested. People are different and living in a regimented society that fights nature takes years off our lives

After sleep deprived nights because we were both restless sleepers we decided on a "sleep divorce" which absolutely prevented a real one. Separate bedrooms saw the return of harmony and a way improved marriage all round. At first we thought we were a bit odd until we were surprised to discover bit by bit that way more of our friends and acquaintances had come to the same solution. Another brilliant interview.

This was a great chat. I spent 7 years of my life binge drinking only at night, in order to shut my mind off and sleep. It was a 4-5 hour thing every single night, that began at a specific time (7pm) and I was drinking close to 2 bottles of wine and also taking sleeping tablets- that is how bad my insomnia was. I never drank in the daytime, or with other people because I was treating it as a tool to sleep, not for enjoyment. I woke up one morning and felt so ill, I could feel my body was not able to handle it anymore- that day I quit drinking completely and I’ll be sober one year in September. Guess what happened…I started sleeping like a baby. I was no longer having these wake ups in the night where I couldn’t sleep for hours. I still do take sleeping pills every night, but because I stopped drinking, I have done a lot of work in other areas in my life in order to return my body back into its natural state, so this habit is definitely on my list of what needs changing.

Yes absolutely, I have struggled my whole life with sleep. Recently however, I got involved with the Zoe Big IF study and it has changed so much without being that hard to do. Its Time Restricted Eating and, because I seem to have naturally gravitated to eating within a 9 hour window, they ask you to try for 10, I have started sleeping better and my mood and energy are way up. Its not even that you feel particularly hungry but, if you start eating at say 9am and finish at 1800, (you can drink water, black coffee or tea outwith the eating window so long as theres no sugar or sweetners in it) it clearly does your digestion a big favour. I think its started me getting into a routine of getting up just before 6am, drinking black coffee until I eat at 9am, you also get a lot done in the early hours, then finish eating by 6pm, you go to bed earlier and, perhaps because the coffee is before 9am and the getting up earlier, you actually end up going to sleep and getting a better sleep much earlier. Its been wonderful, my IBS bloating has improved too. Who knew that changing when you eat can make such profound differences on everything. I would encourage anyone struggling to give it a try. You dont change what you eat or the amount, just the time. I think it sends a clear message to your gut microbes to stop working and let the ones who specialise in cleanup to actually do their work and everything else is knock on effects to that.

I've still never had a relationship from choosing not to be in a relationship someone unsuitable and at nearly 30 I can confidently say I would gladly spend the rest of my life single over being a worse human for the sleep deprivation and extreme co-dependency (that is often mistaken for love).

Aim for 6 or 7.5 hours. Rem cycles every 1 and half hours. Study shows aiming for 8 hours your guaranteed to wake up around the 6 hour mark and it throws your sleep off. I like 6 hours as I want to get the most out my life if I could sleep less I would but 6 hours feels perfect I wouldn't rely on sleeping tablets it's a quick fix and will do more damage down the line. I listen to meditation sleep music find what sounds you feel through tour body trust me works wonders I've 38 been listening to it ever since I lost my mother and father 4 years ago. Without that I would spiral and put me down a horrible ugly path but I'm great I feel great and I get alot out of life now. Ps I didn't have any issues prior to their deaths

The was one of the most beneficial conversations/ teachings I have ever heard on the subject of sleep. I studied sleep at Brock University and have been working in sleep medicine for 25 years I am currently working at the University of Miami Sleep Center as a sleep tech and up until I listened to this discussion, I thought that I am sure I have heard it all. I was humbled to say the least. An absolutely fascinating discussion on sleep and adenosine, caffeine and how the body metabolizes caffeine and how caffein latches onto adenosine etc etc. Great stuff!
@130rne
@130rne Рік тому
Pro tip - don't drink coffee until you've been up for about an hour and a half. It screws with the adenosine if drunk before you're fully awake. Get up, walk (movement), get sunlight. Wait an hour and a half. (An hour is still fine, just not quite as effective. You want to be fully awake) If you do this it should improve the afternoon crashes and post lunch naps. When I wait the full hour and a half, I don't get the coffee crash in the afternoon and also when I eat lunch, the food doesn't make me as drowsy. From Dr Andrew Huberman here on UKposts, another great resource.

This interview resonated so much for me, and what a brilliant episode. My father died of Alzheimer's only a few years after he retired from air traffic control, and I don't think it's coincidental that his job meant literally decades of shift work, including working nights. He endured disrupted sleep cycles almost his entire life (grew up during the London Blitz, was sent off to war, etc.), and while he almost took pride in the total lack of sleep he could survive on, I do believe this negatively affected his brain function. Thanks for the invaluable insight. I need to do better, particularly in the sleep "procrastination" issue of going to bed, yet delaying falling asleep c/o of my iPad. Cheers.

I agree with the sentiment but it's not 'selfless' to follow your heart. When you follow your passions like that it's a joy to learn and share your knowledge with others it's not losing sight of yourself or being self scarfing - it's filling yourself up enough to generously give. We should never seek to get away from ourselves to help others - we should always seek to be in touch with ourselves to help others. Being self centred has both negative and positive qualities and it's only in getting in touch with what lights us up that we can be a torch to others. (Also we should sleep for our sanity and well being productivity is a nice byproduct which shouldn't be the main goal)

As a child, i had this particular kind of involuntary visualization as I was falling asleep that was utterly terrifying, and made me afraid to go to sleep. I learned as an adult that this was the result of the neural network growing in some regions, being pared away in others, and some small percentage of the population suffers these terrors upon drowning off in childhood. None of my 4 siblings had them . My husband was the first person I ever met who also had suffered them. To this day we are the only two people I personally know who had them. I would not wish it on anyone, I already had a pretty traumatic childhood going on! I cannot express how grateful I was to finally outgrow it. Interestingly, I developed a coping mechanism back then to help me, which Dr Walker describes: the visualization of something in GREAT detail. I would turn on my sisters click radio to the classical station and visualize the music as garments: what color, what fabric, what sleeves, what skirt, where ribbons or buttons, etc. Music has always evoked images for me, so even as a 7-10 year old while this was happening, I could use the image the music brought to mind to distract my brain from the fear of the terrors. Interesting to hear him talk about this method here.

Interesting podcast, I started taking ashwaganda few months back and my sleep improved, anxiety decreased significantoy, lost weight , binged 90% less than before. It does show by research that ashwaganda is good for your cortisol levels and therefore improves sleep which then improves all the other problems I mentioned above.

Matthew Walker certainly has thought provoking insights in this interview. Every single one of us here have our own sleeping patterns, and the way he explains everything thoroughly is what makes this particular subject matter even more intriguing.

The caffeine information is very interesting and don’t forget you don’t only get caffeine from coffee, it’s also in soft drinks, energy drinks, sometimes even in cooked items as well, so while counting your number of coffee cups is easy, the others are caffeine people absorb without necessarily thinking about or noticing, so that needs to be taken into consideration as well…

Thank you sooooo much for this episode! I have had so much insomnia, over-thinking, anxiety, worrying & night-eating, in the past, & still do at times. I have learned so much from your conversation & it has confirmed a lot that I have thought as well! I will watch it again many times, I feel. I have never felt so compelled to share a You Tube video with others, as I have with this video. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It's taken me to reach 74 years of age to understand why as a family including both parent and 4 sibling why we are all insomniacs. Some nights only sleeping anything from 2 - 4 hours. Really interesting, educational and easy to listen too but more importantly, easy to understand. Hears hoping I can start to get 7 hours a night.

@@Shaylas Glad I'm not on my own. So far I have given up drinking any tea or coffee after 6pm tea time. Now drink Sparling Water all evening, not every one's ideal drink but it's better than just plain water and it supposed to helps to cleanse the body system which I hope is helping towards aiding sleep. Started going to bed around 11pm instead of any time from 1am onwards and although I don't go to sleep immediately at least I'm resting and eventually fall sleep until 5.30 /6 ish which is great for me. Keep bedroom dark, Won't lie, I have had nights and had to get up about 3/4am but then went back to bed about 6am. Stopped having an afternoon naps because that's when I feel most tired due to lack of previous nights sleep. I found that in the afternoon I really went into a lovely deep sleep and although it was for only 30 minutes that put the mockers on going to bed until early hours. Had decided to start walking each morning again as I did before winter and I really need to get back into that for all the obvious health reasons. Stopped using ipad after 8pm as I believe the blue light is not good for the eyes and brain activity. Was planning to research the audio books to listen too as I try to sleep. I believe Matthew McConaughey the american actor, does them and his voice is supposed to be very lethargic to listen to. I won't matter if I fall asleep before the tape finishes. Some libraries hire them out, again plan to check on my local library. Good luck not sure if any of this helps, think at our age, is got be routine. The problem is we don't go out to work, are probably bored, sit far to much, drink to many cuppas. It's OK being retired with a bank full of money but most of us live on pensions and while we survive ok there aren't loads of free activities to capture our interests or imagination especially when work and families have taken up most of our lives. Obviously some people get to our ages suffering from arthritis which can be unbearably painful and sleep is difficult. Again If you research DOCEO Steve Bartlett , there is a guy who says Arthritic pain can be reduced as he feels its a build up of food allergies that have effected the bone joints.

@@Shaylas Glad to help. By the way I am also a type 1 insulin dependent diabetic so I do understand their problems. Food can have an adverse effect especially processed foods. Routine and diet is important and some exercise too. If they have any sort of illness even a cold this will effect and heighten their bloodsugar levels. You should investigate a freeflow system, you wear it and it measures your blood sugar levels. I used to drink a lot of tonic water as it has quinine in it which muscle cramp.

Professor Matthew is so modest and sweet. Brought a tear to my eye to hear how vulnerable he is in intimate settings. The stage brings a "safe" distance. How I hope in time he develops more peace in this area of vulnerability.

hi there from a public service employee in Germany! Dont wanna brag, but I never have any stress (whether in my job nor in my private life) and I can sleep during work, since there is not very much to do. I am scientist but I know everything so my job isnt that much of a challenge but paid well. It's really great to have no worries whatsoever and be able to rest, meditate and sleep whenever one wants! good luck to all you ppl out there
