In this throwback episode, Sleep Science Academy founder Devin Burke shares a holistic framework for understanding and overcoming sleep issues by addressing the nervous system, mind, body, and spirit connections.
• Sleep is a natural biological process that happens when we remove barriers, not something we can force or control
• Quality and quantity of sleep are both important, with individual needs varying based on age, lifestyle, and chronotype
• Poor sleep affects hormone regulation, cognitive function, emotional stability, and even physical health
• The "Three P Patterns" that keep people stuck in insomnia: perfectionism, problem-solving mindset, and putting sleep on a pedestal
• Sleep pressure and circadian rhythm are the two main systems controlling sleep, with napping potentially disrupting sleep pressure
• Creating anxiety around sleep by trying supplements, perfect environments, or special routines can backfire
• Most sleep hacks and trends (like lettuce water) miss the fundamental point that acceptance and releasing expectations are key
