This week, I’m thrilled to welcome back Dr. Michael Breus to the show to discuss his new book, Sleep, Drink, Breathe: Simple Daily Habits for Long-Term Health. Dr. Breus, also known as “The Sleep Doctor,” is a clinical psychologist, board-certified sleep specialist, and a bestselling author. Known for making complex health topics approachable, his latest book simplifies wellness into three fundamental habits: sleep, hydration, and proper breathing.

In this conversation, we cover:

  • The Domino Effect of Wellness: Dr. Breus explains his concept of “dominoes of wellness,” focusing on foundational habits that impact overall health. He emphasizes starting with simple yet impactful actions to build momentum toward lasting change.
  • Sleep Strategies for Better Rest: Highlighting his expertise, Dr. Breus shares tips for improving sleep quality, addressing common misconceptions, and providing actionable advice for tackling insomnia and other sleep challenges.
  • Hydration Myths and Insights: From the right way to drink water to calculating your ideal daily intake, Dr. Breus clears up misconceptions and introduces a practical formula for staying hydrated without overloading your body.
  • The Power of Breathwork: Contrary to popular belief, many people breathe inefficiently. Dr. Breus details simple techniques to improve oxygen intake, reduce stress, and even enhance sleep quality.
  • Making Wellness Achievable: The book’s three-week plan provides an easy entry point for anyone looking to adopt healthier habits, with practical tips like setting daily reminders to stay on track.

Dr. Breus also shares his thoughts on the impact of caffeine, the truth about melatonin, and the science behind tools like the Time Shifter app, which helps users adapt to jet lag and shift work schedules.
