And in 5 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: today's episode, we are talking nighttime non negotiables and how 6 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: to enter your sleepy girl era and get your energy 7 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: back because when you get older, sleep gets harder and 8 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: we're going to get into it. But it's also how 9 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 1: your sleep has become monetized. And what is the scams, 10 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 1: the sleepy girl scams that they're saying, no, buy this 11 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: and you'll actually go to fucking bed, yeah, Or what 12 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: are the things that actually work that you don't need 13 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: to be spending your money on to go the fuck 14 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: to bed. So there's gonna be a little bit of love. 15 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll be saying this until mirror. 16 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: I think we will be. 17 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: We always are, We always are. These are like therapy 18 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: sessions for ourselves as well. Honestly, I wouldn't say I'm 19 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: a good sleeper, but I think it comes down to 20 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: one main thing in my life, which love him. But 21 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: women sleep worse when next to a partner, men sleep better. Wow. Yeah, 22 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: so there was actually a study that came out. I 23 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:32,559 Speaker 1: saved it to share on this episode. So studies show 24 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: that men tend to sleep better when sharing a bed 25 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: with a partner, while women's sleep quality often gets worse. 26 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: Researchers from the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships found 27 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: that women experience more fragmented sleep, take longer to reach 28 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: a deep sleep, and are more likely to wake up 29 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: during the night when co sleeping. And this is because 30 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: women are often unconsciously emotionally monitoring the space, responding to movement, 31 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: temperature changes, snoring, and even shifts in their partners breathing 32 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: on mood, and this night shift mode is especially common 33 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: among women socialized to be caretakers. Meanwhile, men tend to 34 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: report lower cortisol levels and improve sleep quality when a 35 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: partner is nearby, gaining a sense of safety or comfort 36 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: from the closeness. And I'm like, yeah, that checks out. 37 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: I know you probably don't relate to this. I know you. 38 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 3: I can't sleep, I can't sleep unless well not true, 39 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 3: but I find it much harder to fall asleep if 40 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 3: Chris isn't in the bed, and I'll be like tossing 41 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 3: and turning for sometimes hours and then he'll come to 42 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 3: bed and I. 43 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: Fall asleep straight away. See if I feel mean saying this, 44 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: because like, I'm not going to kick him out. 45 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 2: No, but studies show that you're not alone. 46 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: But I sleep so much fucking better if Rob's away 47 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: for the week. I miss him when I'm awake. Yeah, 48 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 1: but when I'm asleep, I'm having great time. But before 49 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: we get into the rest of our twitty jack, what 50 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: is your obsession of the week. 51 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 3: My obsession of the week is a book to add 52 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 3: to your reading list.

Your shitty bedtime routine is a 121 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: life or death situation. Okay, no more doom scrolling before men. 122 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: As we kind of mentioned at the start of this episode, 123 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: it's kind of wild how monetized sleep has become, and 124 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: it's like the capitalism of sleep, and how basically all 125 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: these products, routine subscriptions have just become this monetized version 126 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: of selling you sleep, this basic need that we have 127 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: that is to also combat the multitude of products and 128 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: capitalism that is stopping us from going to sleep. It's 129 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: toxic cycle, Telly. 130 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 2: It is the sleep economy. It's a real thing. 131 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: So it's very interesting how rest has become a luxury good. 132 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: But I wanted to ask the contemporary sleep industry, how 133 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: much do you think it is worth?

It's huge that you drink before bed. 167 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 3: And there is science that proves that, yes, like the Sleepy. 168 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 2: Girl mocktail can work. 169 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 3: However, there are so many like teas and seas on 170 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 3: how to get the most out of this drink that 171 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 3: I personally don't think that it is going to be 172 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 3: the cure to your bad sleep schedule, if that's what 173 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 3: you're thinking. 174 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: It's also going to make your need to pee. 175 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 3: Exactly, because there are a bunch of different factors that 176 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 3: you need to consider to ensure that this actually works 177 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 3: as effectively as it's designed, and one of those things 178 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 3: is timing, so making sure that you have this drink 179 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 3: at least two hours before you go to sleep, and 180 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 3: then not drinking anything else because otherwise you're going to 181 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 3: be waking up having to pee all night. And then 182 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 3: also with the melatonin release, if you supplement. 183 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: Melatonin too close before you go. 184 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 3: To sleep, it actually takes too long for it to 185 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 3: work for you to enjoy the benefits when you're sleeping. 186 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: So that's why sometimes if you take like a. 187 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 2: Melotonin supplement or you have a melotone. 188 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 3: And drink right before bed, you wake up feeling really groggy, 189 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: right yeah, because it's by the time it's actually doing 190 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 3: the work in your body, it's time to wake up. 191 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 2: And you're like, what the hell is going on? 192 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 3: So that's like kind of counterintuitive. Also, consistency, if you 193 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 3: you know, take a sleeping tablet or have a sleepy 194 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 3: girl mockt out one night, Like, that's not going to 195 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 3: improve your sleep for the long term because, just like 196 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 3: with a lot of things, your sleep hygiene is based 197 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 3: on routine, and it takes weeks to do things for 198 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 3: it to actually become second nature and for your body 199 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 3: to really be like, oh, okay, so this is what's 200 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 3: going on. 201 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and we'll get into like the circadian rhythm and 202 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: that routine later in the E. But I think that 203 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: also ties in closely to one that I've recently been trying, 204 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: which is the lem Me Sleep Gummies. Yeah, and also 205 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: just sleep gummies and supplements in general. And basically with 206 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: all my research that I did, it was that these 207 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 1: are not the solution. Yeah, So similar to kind of 208 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: exactly what you're saying is that complements. Whether it's a 209 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: Sleepy Girl mocktail or a Lemmy Sleep Gummies or whatever 210 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: it is, these are like short term fixes. For example, 211 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: if you're jet lagged, the lemm Me Sleep Gummies, I 212 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: was like, let me sleep right, And then I have 213 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: had this experience and did I think it worked? Let's 214 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 1: break down. So the Lemmy sleep Gummies I ended up 215 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: buying off Revolve. They were about sixty dollars, and the 216 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: instructions behind them is to take them thirty minutes before bed. 217 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: Here's what I love. They're yummy. They're like a little lolly. 218 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: They are so yum. The first time I took the 219 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: Lemmy Sleep gummies, I was like doing like the slow 220 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: blink from eye to eye. Wow, And I was like 221 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: really fell asleep. And apparently when ROB got into bed, 222 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: like I didn't even budge. The dreams I had on 223 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: the Lemmy Sleep Gummies were diabolical. I don't know if 224 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 1: other people like this. You and I have discussed it before, 225 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: but when I have such vivid dreams, I don't feel 226 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: like I'm getting sleep. 227 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 2: No, I don't feel I feel like I'm watching a movie. 228 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: And like I sometimes become present in my dreams and 229 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, this is a dream. How the fuck 230 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: do I get out of here? Yeah? Sometimes it's fun 231 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: because I can literally be like, oh, this is a dream, 232 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: let's try flying. Yeah, it were, But like the Lemmy 233 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: sleep dreams, which is also a very common narrative online 234 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: and on TikTok, you see a lot of people saying 235 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: that the dreams are crazy. The dreams were crazy. I've 236 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: heard that and. 237 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 3: Also that people wake up like on the hour every 238 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 3: hour when they take them. 239 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: So that's the thing. 240 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 3: Like you said you had like a really deep sleep, 241 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 3: even though you had vivid dreams. But then I've also 242 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 3: heard like quite a few people be like I was 243 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 3: waking up every hour. 244 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, but again I woke up and I didn't necessarily 245 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: feel rested, and I started having this feeling of being like, 246 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: if I want to get to sleep, I have to 247 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 1: take my gummy, which is never going to be a 248 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: positive routine if you have to rely on some sort 249 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: of supplement or vitamin or anything in that essence that 250 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: isn't a naturally produced thing within your body. Like melatonin 251 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: isn't naturally producing in your body, but if you have 252 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: to seek that from an external source, your body's never 253 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: going to produce the amount that it needs naturally. And 254 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: on the box, it literally says this is not meant 255 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: for long term use. And I was being like and 256 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: so like I was taking it wrong, and it just 257 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, gummies and sleepy Girl mocktails and all 258 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: these things are being like, here, get your melotonin, girl. Yeah, 259 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: we need to work on producing this naturally and building 260 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: the Cicadian rhythm and nighttime bedtime routine that actually lifts 261 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: your melotonin rather than seeking it from external sources. But 262 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: my next sleepy girl scam, which is kind of on 263 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: the similar note, and I think all of these have 264 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: a very similar theme to them because like all products, 265 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,119 Speaker 1: good products don't sell your product, they sell your lifestyle. 266 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: And all of these products are selling you sleep and 267 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: it is pilo mists. Pilomists to me just never made sense. 268 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: There's two parts to this because aromatherapy and pilomists are 269 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: two different things. So aromatherapy is, you know, using oils 270 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: and lavender and that is a relaxation practice right, whereas 271 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: pilo mists there's no science to support that sleep mists 272 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: or pillow mists actually work right, but aromatherapy works right. 273 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: According to bed Threads, there's no science to back up 274 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: the effectiveness of sleep sprays. Specifically, there is some research 275 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: on essential oils and sleep. A twenty twenty study gave 276 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: lavender oil aromatherapy to menopausal women who were having trouble sleeping. 277 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: It was discovered that when the women and inhaled the 278 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: lavender scented steam inhalation, their sleep quality was improved. Here's 279 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: what I think about that. I think, one, you're taking 280 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: part in a relaxation ritual inhaling lavender and like oromatherapy, 281 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: that's relaxing. I don't think sprinting your pillow with a 282 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: scent is going to make you fall asleep. 283 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 3: No, if anything, I do think that, Like, if you're 284 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 3: using it as part of your prebed routine to romanticize 285 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 3: your bedtime routine, that's something that you genuinely want to do, 286 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 3: and you're like, Okay, it's sleep time. I'm going to 287 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 3: turn the big light off. I'm going to stop using 288 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 3: my devices. I spray my little mist I drink my whatever, 289 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 3: and I read my book. And that's telling my body 290 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 3: I've done these things, it's bed time. 291 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: But that's the thing is you're doing that in a 292 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: routine of the things that actually work. 293 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 2: Exactly. 294 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: It's not because you sprayed a pillow, miss It's because 295 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: you went off your phone, turned off the light, and 296 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: read a book exactly. And so if you're going to 297 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: spend your money on anything, it shouldn't be on the 298 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: pillow missed. Yeah, I just I don't fuck with it. 299 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: I don't vibe it. Yeah, it's not for me, it's 300 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: just not an essential I think if you like it, yeah, sure, 301 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: But if you want to do that, there is a 302 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: budget friendly way of doing that. Go on, buy the 303 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: essential oil, mix it with some water, put it in 304 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: an old setting spray bottle. There's your pillow miss. Yeah, 305 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: you don't need to go and spend like there are 306 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 1: some pillow miss that is seventy dollars and I'm like, 307 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: you're taking the pisce. 308 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: Whoa, it's like more expensive than some perfumes. 309 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 3: I wish seriously likes wearing an like. 310 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: I think that should be illegal. Yeah, I think. I 311 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:43,479 Speaker 1: think jail. I actually think it's jail time because like 312 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 1: a seventy dollar pillow missed jail. 313 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 3: My last Sleepy Girl scam isn't a product, but it 314 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 3: is an ethos that we have been told time and 315 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 3: time again, and it's the idea that an hour of 316 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 3: sleep before midnight is worth two hours after because it's 317 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 3: a popular belief, but it's not actually scientifically supported. So 318 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 3: while it is true that sleep quality can vary throughout 319 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 3: the night, with more non rem or deep sleep occurring 320 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 3: earlier in the night, the key is to prioritize getting 321 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 3: more sleep overall, and I just think that some people's 322 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 3: lifestyles aren't going to be conducive to falling asleep before midnight, 323 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 3: like if you're a shift worker one hundred or whatever 324 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 3: for a mother or a mom you know, like just 325 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 3: I just don't think that that is necessarily true. 326 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: That mentality that, like I don't know foot if you will, 327 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: comes from the fact that your earlier hours of sleep 328 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: are higher quality. Yeah, So like you could go, you 329 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: could be sleeping from five am to five pm, and 330 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: your earlier hours are still your more higher quality sleep. Yeah. 331 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: I think where that notion comes from is the fact 332 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: that most people of sitting working at are working at 333 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: a nine to five yeah, and that going to bed 334 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: before midnight is beneficial. Yeah, but it's not necessarily equal 335 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: yet more. Yeah, Okay, My last one super quickly is 336 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: the hatch alarm clock. So I recently looked at how 337 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 1: much the Hatch alarm clock is. It's three hundred and 338 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: ninety seven dollars for an alarm clock. Jail diabolical. A 339 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: lot of people love it, I know, I know there's 340 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 1: a lot of people that love it. And when there 341 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: are those tiktoks and it's like what's the one thing 342 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: that you bought that was the best thing you've ever spent. Always, 343 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: every single time, there is someone in there saying the 344 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: Hatch alarm clock. But I truly think it's just the 345 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: TikTok effect. I truly believe the Hatch alarm clock is 346 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: not worth four hundred dollars because if you want all 347 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: those pects, there are alarm clocks that do exactly the 348 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 1: same thing for fifty dollars. I think it's this one 349 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 1: product that goes viral, has a very luck expensive look 350 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: to it, and basically does the things of a healthy 351 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: evening routine of putting your phone in another room. You've 352 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: got an alarm clock, so you've got a bedtime, and 353 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 1: you've got a consistent wake up time. It has like 354 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 1: a sunrise, so you're getting like natural lighting to wake 355 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: you up. Like, it's all these things that you don't 356 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: need to spend four hundred dollars on. Could just open 357 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: the blands, You could have just opened the blinds, baby girl, 358 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: That'll save you five billion dollars. Yeah apparently, yeah, but yeah, 359 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: that's my other one that I'm like, I'm probably going 360 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: to raffle some feathers with that, but the hatch alarm clock. 361 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: I was close at one point too. Shall we get 362 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: in two our nighttime non negotiables? Yish Okay, So I 363 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: think we've kind of you mentioned and touched on this 364 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: before about routine and your circadian rhythm. But when I 365 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: was doing research for this episode, maybe this came up 366 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 1: a lot for you. But it was Pavlov's dog. Yeah, 367 00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 1: that's one of the things in mind too. Yeah, so 368 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: maybe you have heard of this, maybe you haven't, maybe 369 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: you've only heard about it from the office. But if 370 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: we're talking about your brain, it loves patterns. It's a 371 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: slut for a pattern. And if you have heard of 372 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: Pavlov's dog, in case you missed psychology class, Pavlov rang 373 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 1: a bell every time he fed his dog. Eventually the 374 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: dog started drooling at just the sound of the bell. 375 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: And that's that's on conditioning maybe, and your brain works 376 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: the exact same way when it comes to sleep or 377 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: other routines. Your circadian rhythm is basically your body's internal clock, 378 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: and it loves consistency. But if your bedtime changes every night, 379 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: if you scroll until one am, your brain is like 380 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: is a party time or is it sleep time? Yeah? 381 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: What are we doing. I'm confused, and that's no wonder 382 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: why you wake up feeling wrecked. And so the fix 383 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: is to treat your nighttime non negotiables as your bell 384 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: and do the same sequence of things each night. And 385 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: we're going to get into our sequence or our non 386 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: negotiables so that you're like little Pavlov's puppy. You treat 387 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: yourself like a little puppy dog and build your bell. 388 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 1: You know, and I know as well. A lot of 389 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: these things we already know. We know, putting our fucking 390 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: phone down or going a bet at the same time 391 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: or whatever it is. We know these things, but what 392 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 1: can be really difficult is to start or stay consistent. 393 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 1: So maybe look at this and set it as like 394 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: a challenge for seven days, have like a little science 395 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: experiment and you're the guinea pig, and treat your non 396 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: negotiables as your bell. Yeah, so, Sally, hit me, what's 397 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 1: your non negotiabaga? 398 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 3: Okay, my absolute non negotiable in my nighttime routine is 399 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 3: a shower. 400 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: Oh yes, I knew you were going to say this, 401 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: so I did put it in mind, and you know 402 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: that TikTok. 403 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 3: That's like if you're coming home from the club and 404 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 3: not doing your skincare. 405 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: What are you doing? 406 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 3: And then it's like all the girls like doing cartwheels 407 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 3: while eating a six pack nugget. 408 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: I know that, like the like that's annoying being like. 409 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 3: What you're not like sharing and doing your skincare every night, 410 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 3: like even if you go to the club. 411 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: But honestly, I at least a shower. Yeah, you don't 412 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: have to do the twelve step skincare routine. 413 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 3: Honestly, just take your makeup off. But I cannot sleep 414 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 3: or have a good night sleep if I haven't showered. Yeah, 415 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 3: that is an absolute non negotiable for me. And I 416 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 3: know some people prefer to shower in the morning. 417 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: They used to be that gil Like. 418 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 3: They say that it refreshes them and wakes them up, 419 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 3: and there are pros to both, so you know, there's 420 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 3: nothing wrong with it. But for me personally, I have 421 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 3: to have a shower to be able to go to sleep. 422 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: It's a purpose, it's the purpose of what that shower is. 423 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 1: And I was watching a video of this guy one 424 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: it was the fact that your morning shower should be 425 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: cold because it wakes up your adrenaline and starts your 426 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 1: energy for the day, and your evening shower should be warm, 427 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: relaxing and in dim lighting because it signals to your 428 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: body that it's bedtime exactly. 429 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 3: And I think it's a good full stop on the 430 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 3: day and gives you an opportunity to physically wash away 431 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 3: the day and be like, Okay, it's bed time. Now, 432 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,880 Speaker 3: put your beautiful jarmies on, do your skincare, hop into 433 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 3: bed all clean and fresh. Like I cannot get into 434 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 3: bed with the thought of them being like outside journal 435 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 3: on me. 436 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 1: I'm about to blow your mind.

What is I'll still get it for you 440 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: as a present, a waterproof shower lamp. It was thirty 441 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 1: dollars and this has completely changed my evening shower routine 442 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 1: because no, because there is no big light and it 443 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: is just the most like room man tick, gentle way 444 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: to have a shower. Yeah. Wow, it's just so much 445 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 1: nicer and it's waterproof. You can dim it, you can 446 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: put it lighter, darker. That's literally a definition of dimming. 447 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 1: Great job addicts. Yeah, but that is like my one 448 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: hundred percent product recommendation for an evening shower. 449 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, and also because we know that bright light and 450 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 3: you know, screens and stuff like that is going to 451 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 3: keep you awake for longer. 452 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: So that also is helping with. 453 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: That bedtime and winding down routine, which I love. 454 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 3: But I did see in an article by the Sleep 455 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 3: Foundation they said that your body cooling down after a 456 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 3: warm shower is also conducive to melotonin release, which helps 457 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 3: you for free melatonin. Bitch, Yeah, I feel like all 458 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 3: of these tips are free melotone. And that were like, 459 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 3: put down the cocktail, put down the gummies, get you 460 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 3: have a warm shower. 461 00:25:56,119 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: I guess what it's free? Okay, my nighttime none agole 462 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: is bedroom environment. So according to doctor Peter Tierney, bedroom 463 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: environment is the second most positive contributor to sleep, behind 464 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: consistent wake and bedtime. So like having a consistent bedtime 465 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: and wake up time, that's the best thing you can 466 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: do if you sleep. We know that it's boring, we 467 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: won't touch on it. Yeah, but your bedroom and your 468 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 1: environment of where you go to sleep is the second 469 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: most important thing to getting a good night's sleep. And 470 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,719 Speaker 1: fuck me if it's not wrong. And we've said this before. 471 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: If there is one thing in your life that you're 472 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: going to spend a shit ton of money on, it 473 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: has to be your bed. That is where you spend 474 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: I think on average, in a human's lifetime, you spend 475 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: twenty six years in bed. That for me, you're spending 476 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: three hundred and sixty five days a year in your bed, 477 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 1: give or take travel or having a sleepover, a slamber 478 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 1: party at someone's house. Right that, I truly do believe 479 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: that you can never ever go wrong investing in a 480 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: good fucking quality mattress, in good bedding and like good 481 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: flanelette or cotton or linen sheets, a good pillow, and 482 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: of course snugly pajamas. Yeah, but as well, these things 483 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: don't have to cost a lot of money. So for example, 484 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,120 Speaker 1: if you are looking for good quality pajamas, I literally 485 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: got a set one hundred percent cotton flanelette pajamas from 486 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: Aldi for thirteen dollars. Or you could go to Bed 487 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 1: Bathroom Table they've got their like viral pajamas that are 488 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 1: also one hundred percent flanelette cotton fifty four ninety five 489 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: I believe fifty five dollars when they're on sale. I 490 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 1: think they're sixty dollars when they're not on sale, so 491 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: it's thirty dollars for the top, thirty dollars for the bottom. 492 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: There are so many places you can find good quality pajamas. Then, also, 493 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: we have end of financial year coming up. That is 494 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 1: the time girls like if you're thinking, yeah, do. 495 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 3: You know what? 496 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: I am still sleeping on the same mattress that I 497 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: used to my high school boyfriend on.

Okay. 508 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 3: My next non negotiable is similar to your environment, except 509 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 3: it is tidy your space. 510 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: Okay. I knew you were going to do this one again, 511 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: so I didn't. I didn't touch it. 512 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 3: We've had enough sleepovers that we know each other's routine. 513 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, down, pat. 514 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 515 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 3: So I'm not saying that my apartment is spotless single. 516 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 2: Night go to bed. 517 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: Sales apartment is spotless every night before she goes to bed. 518 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 3: But I can't go to sleep if the sink is 519 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,719 Speaker 3: full of dishes or there's recycling that I need to 520 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 3: take down. And people with messy rooms are more likely 521 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 3: to have poor sleep according to Science. Yes, yeah so, 522 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 3: according to an article published in Science Daily, people with 523 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 3: clouded bedrooms have more trouble getting enough sleep. And there's 524 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 3: been ties to people who have hoarding habits and poor sleep. 525 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 3: And it makes sense because a lot of the time 526 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: mess is a result of. 527 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: Stress, and as a messy girl can confirm because the 528 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: only way you stop being a messy girl is kind 529 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: of like when you go to the gym. You know 530 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: how you go to the gym and you do workout 531 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: and you leave and you feel good. You're like, fuck, 532 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: that are right. That's what it's like when the clean 533 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: people tell you how much nicer it is to have 534 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: a clean apartment. Then you go to bed and you 535 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: have a clean apartment, You're like, fuck, they're right. And 536 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: that's the thing is you start getting addicted to how 537 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: good it feels having a nice light space, and you 538 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: know what the thing is because I I also would 539 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: find it unrelatable when people be like, I have to 540 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: clean my room before bet, I have to have a 541 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: clean space. And I think what misses in that conversation 542 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: sometimes is we're fucking tired, like you'r five to nine 543 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: is so exhausting that like you can barely sometimes muster 544 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,719 Speaker 1: the energy to brush your teeth. But the thing that 545 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: notched in my brain that made me be like do 546 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: it is one, not only is it a lot nicer 547 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: getting into bed and having a lighter space, that's how 548 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: you have to look at it. But two is if 549 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 1: you don't do it now, it's still going to be 550 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: there in the morning, and that is the worst way 551 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: to start your day. 552 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 553 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: Absolutely, we always say the closing shift and do it 554 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 1: before you have your shower. Do it before you have 555 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: the shower and put your arms on. You're not allowed 556 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: to clean in your jarmis. 557 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 3: You can't go down to the bin room or take 558 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 3: shit to the bin in your pajamas like that is 559 00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 3: against the law. 560 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: It's against the law. That is also illegal. Yeah, I've 561 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: got two more non negotiables, but I'm also betting that 562 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 1: one of these is your final non negotiable, so I'm 563 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: not gonna go with that one. But my final one 564 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: is light exposure. For sleepy girls, the big light is illegal, 565 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: so the best light for sleep is red, orange, and yellow, 566 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: so your warm lights. So your phone is blue light. 567 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: And new research finds that every hour of screen time 568 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: in bed is linked to twenty four fewer minutes of 569 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: sleep and a fifty nine percent higher risk of insomnia. 570 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 3: Shit. 571 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: Bringing it back to the M word is that red 572 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: light promotes melatonin production and blue light suppresses melatonin production. 573 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: I too struggle to not go on my phone, but 574 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 1: I've basically been sitting here being like, every minute I'm 575 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: on this, I am sacrificing. I am making a conscious decision. 576 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: But it's the quality of the sleep. 577 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 3: And unless you're using something that's actually tracking the quality 578 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 3: of your sleep, you don't really know how long you've 579 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 3: spent in those different sleep cycles. So even if you 580 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 3: still slept eight hours, the actual quality of your sleep 581 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 3: might not be as good as it would have been 582 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 3: if you stopped using your. 583 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: Phone truly and just put it in the living room, 584 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: like just know yourself. I know myself and I know 585 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: that if it's next to me in bed, I'm gonna 586 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: pick it up. Yeah, So putting it in a different 587 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: room and investing in an alarm clock or I have 588 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: like an Alexa Dot. It was twenty dollars. It plays 589 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: a little chirpy bird in the morning whenever I set 590 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: an alarm for it. And the other part that is 591 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: affordable is the lamp. You can get smart bulbs for 592 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: fifteen dollars, which you do control with your phone, but 593 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: you can set it and then leave your phone in 594 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: the other room and putting it on a timer and 595 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: on a red line. It will transform your life like 596 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: it is, and it's sexy. It is. It is a 597 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: bit sexy putting down me, yeah, in the red lights 598 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: on and you go to bed and your sleep story 599 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: starts playing. Take it away, Sally. 600 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 3: I do, because of course, that is our final non 601 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 3: negotiable that I won't wax away and on too long, 602 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 3: because we have mentioned it a few times on the podcast, 603 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 3: because Alex and I absolutely cannot fall asleep unless we 604 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 3: have some sort of audiobook, sound AMR, soundscape or podcast 605 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 3: of some kind in our ears. 606 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 2: And if you have a busy brain. 607 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 3: I honestly do think that one of the absolute non 608 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 3: negotiables you need to fall asleep is something to listen to, 609 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 3: because I find that a lot of the time if 610 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 3: I don't have anything that my brain can focus on 611 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 3: that isn't related to my life and my to do 612 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,479 Speaker 3: lists that I have to do the next day or 613 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 3: where my birth certificate is, then. 614 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: I will not be able to fall asleep. 615 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 3: And I think the key is finding something that is 616 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 3: relaxing and works for you. It could be rain sounds, 617 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 3: it could be a sleep story, or it could be 618 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 3: a relaxing podcast. 619 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: I think it really does vary. 620 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,959 Speaker 3: Depending on what you're interested in, but a core part 621 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 3: of that is setting a timer and making sure that 622 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 3: it turns off at the end of the chapter or 623 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 3: after an hour or whatever it is, because these things 624 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 3: can help you fall asleep, But there have also been 625 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 3: studies done that if you're listening to it all night, 626 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,280 Speaker 3: it can impact the quality of your sleep. 627 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: It's happened in a sleep time on it. I had 628 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: my lovely little sleep story going and then I had Hey, 629 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: chicks is sound? 630 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 3: I'm like everywhere totally no, I feel the same, and 631 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 3: I have this when I've been listening to a podcast 632 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 3: and I gets woken up by the ads. It's like 633 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 3: the change in the room. Yes, I get triggered by 634 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 3: the sound of the ad and I wake up. And 635 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 3: a lot of the time it's about like if I'm 636 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 3: listening to an American podcast, it's about data breaches and security. 637 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 1: And that's really stressful. 638 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, even like just knowing what you're listening to, but 639 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 3: stending that time is really important to ensure that your 640 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 3: sleep high jen is high quality throughout the rest of 641 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 3: the night. But that is an absolute non negotiable to 642 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:26,400 Speaker 3: fall asleep. 643 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: On that note, and to wrap, I do think we 644 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: need to address the fact that one of the hardest 645 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 1: and biggest inhibitors to getting sleep, especially as an adult, 646 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 1: is our ability to overthink and anxiety. And I know 647 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: you do this as well. That it's when I'm going 648 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: to sleep, I basically start writing my to do list 649 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: for the next day, and it's all the things that 650 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm supposed to do tomorrow and don't forget, Oh I've 651 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: got to do this, or I've got to do this, 652 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: or what if I do this? And I start writing, 653 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: like in my head, talking to myself that I was 654 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: reading a sub stack, and it introduced this thing called 655 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: the s SS method, and it's basically stop surrender somatic 656 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 1: and step one is to use thought stopping. So this 657 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: is saying things like this is not a helpful thought, 658 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: or stop stop stop, or I'm going to forget this 659 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: by morning it doesn't matter, or I don't like this, 660 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna think about this anymore, literally being like stop. 661 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: You can also surrender, so kind of rewiring your anxious 662 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: brain because as we all learned from inside out, anxiety 663 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: is trying to do a purpose for us. Anxiety is 664 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: trying to help sometimes. And so even what I've found 665 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,959 Speaker 1: more helpful than being like stop thinking about it, because 666 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 1: I'm like okay, I'm like cool bitch, all right. Anyway, 667 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: next thing that you've got to do is that's really helpful. 668 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 1: Thank you. I'll think about that tomorrow, like literally getting 669 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: my brain and be like thank you, that's really helpful. 670 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,319 Speaker 1: I'll make sure that tomorrow. And that promised to be 671 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: like yep, I've got it. Somehow, just quietens your brain 672 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 1: from this anxiety, be like, don't forget. You've got to 673 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 1: book the dentist or cancel the dentist. If you don't 674 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: want to go, And then the last is surrender. Surrendering 675 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,440 Speaker 1: is part of David Hawkins in his book says it's 676 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 1: surrendering to your emotions. It's like opening a door you've 677 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: kept shut for too long. It's letting go of tightly 678 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: held control. We often exert over our feelings, allowing ourselves 679 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: to fully experience them without judgment or resistance. When we surrender, 680 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 1: we stop fighting against the tide of our emotions and 681 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: instead let them wash over us, acknowledging their presence and 682 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 1: removing their power. So sometimes if you are overthinking about 683 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: something and you can't fall asleep, maybe you do just 684 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 1: think about it. Yeah, maybe you do just be like, okay, done, 685 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: thank you, Well, we'll circle back tomorrow.
