WEBVTT - "I'm Tired" Keeps Trending; Why Sleep Must Be Resolution #1

0:00:02.200 --> 0:00:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Hey, there, everybody. It is Wednesday, December thirty first, and

0:00:06.600 --> 0:00:09.360
<v Speaker 1>so many of us, some of us, I should say,

0:00:09.440 --> 0:00:12.039
<v Speaker 1>might be planning our New Year's Eve celebrations, but a

0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>lot of us are planning our New Year's resolutions. What

0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 1>we're going to do better in twenty twenty six, what

0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:21.160
<v Speaker 1>we've gotten wrong in twenty twenty five. And I am

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:24.840
<v Speaker 1>curious just how many of you have sleep on your

0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:29.320
<v Speaker 1>list of things to improve on for twenty twenty six. DJ,

0:00:29.640 --> 0:00:30.960
<v Speaker 1>I know it's on your list.

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:34.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's been there for the past. I don't know,

0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:38.440
<v Speaker 2>twenty years of my life crushing it now. No, it's

0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:39.800
<v Speaker 2>a struggle for a lot of people. And look, you

0:00:39.800 --> 0:00:41.760
<v Speaker 2>make all these resolutions about all the stuff you want

0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:43.320
<v Speaker 2>to do. In fact is you can't do any of

0:00:43.360 --> 0:00:45.879
<v Speaker 2>it until you get better sleep. You really cannot be

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:48.520
<v Speaker 2>good and efficient. You can maintain, you can get back.

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 2>I who knows what I could have been if I

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 2>had proper sleep and I had a successful career. Who

0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:57.279
<v Speaker 2>knows I could have been president if I just had

0:00:57.360 --> 0:00:57.920
<v Speaker 2>enough sleep.

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 1>It is true if you think about it. It's something

0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:06.040
<v Speaker 1>we talk a lot about, but in actuality, we deprioritize

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:09.200
<v Speaker 1>it every single day and It affects your mood, It

0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.080
<v Speaker 1>affects your health, It affects how you treat yourself, how

0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:15.200
<v Speaker 1>you treat others, how productive you are. It actually is

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:19.479
<v Speaker 1>probably one of the most important things we do other

0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:23.520
<v Speaker 1>than eat right in terms of surviving.

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:26.320
<v Speaker 2>We consider that a necessity, but we don't consider sleeping necessity.

0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:29.479
<v Speaker 2>So with that in mind, yes, the idea all these resolutions.

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 2>I bet most people who are listening and have a

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:35.200
<v Speaker 2>resolution to have a list, sleep is probably not on it,

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:37.400
<v Speaker 2>but it needs to be number one. Now look at

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:39.119
<v Speaker 2>your list and say, hm, can I do that without

0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:42.040
<v Speaker 2>being rested? Can I do that? Probably not? Yep.

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:44.240
<v Speaker 1>It affects everything, So this is interesting. Do you know

0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>the phrase I'm tired reached its highest point ever on

0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 1>Google trends. That happened two years ago and I just checked.

0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 1>It's unbelievable how high people just put in Google I'm

0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:00.880
<v Speaker 1>tired because they want to find out why, what they

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:04.600
<v Speaker 1>can do about it, how they can figure out how

0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 1>to survive throughout the day while being tired. But that

0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:10.040
<v Speaker 1>just tells you where we are. Ninety one percent of

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:15.600
<v Speaker 1>adults consistently report not feeling well rested. How often would

0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:20.040
<v Speaker 1>you say on a daily basis, you feel not well rested.

0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:22.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh, this is a this is an everyday thing. I

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:27.080
<v Speaker 2>never feel well rested ever. Ever, there usually comes a

0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:29.720
<v Speaker 2>day when I have actually had to be up twenty

0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:32.200
<v Speaker 2>four hours or more. You know me, I have these

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.560
<v Speaker 2>moments I push myself because something's got to get done,

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.320
<v Speaker 2>and then the next day I have no choice and

0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:40.679
<v Speaker 2>I will pass out anywhere in the house. And that's

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:43.040
<v Speaker 2>the only time I get decent sleep is I have

0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.920
<v Speaker 2>to kill myself the day before it gets so exhausted

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:48.480
<v Speaker 2>to get sleep. And those are the only times. And

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 2>you see how often that happens. And not even once

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 2>a month do I get good sleep.

0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 1>I always every day I'm hopeful, like, how'd you sleep?

0:02:55.880 --> 0:03:00.640
<v Speaker 1>And you're like, same, I've been up for hours. I

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>wake up at four and you have been up for hours.

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 1>That is what it is almost every day. And you're

0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:09.480
<v Speaker 1>not alone. And here's the thing you haven't tried. Three

0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:14.320
<v Speaker 1>and four people who were a part of what's called

0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:17.520
<v Speaker 1>the Snooze Report. It's calm dot COM's sleep study. They

0:03:17.520 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>did a big one and here are the results from it.

0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Three and four say they don't want to be dependent

0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:26.799
<v Speaker 1>on sleep aids and yet forty two percent say they

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:28.040
<v Speaker 1>cannot sleep without them.

0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:29.120
<v Speaker 2>What are sleeping?

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:34.639
<v Speaker 1>You can have anything from melatonin to trasidone to and pilm. Okay, yes,

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:36.160
<v Speaker 1>so it runs the gammut.

0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:37.400
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of just putting on a mask.

0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Correct. No, No, we're talking about actually taking a pill.

0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:44.000
<v Speaker 1>So forty two percent can't sleep without them. Fifty five

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:49.240
<v Speaker 1>percent of people do turn to medication, marijuana, or alcohol

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:53.520
<v Speaker 1>to try and help them sleep, and ninety one percent yes,

0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 1>don't feel rested, But seventy three percent say they're open

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>to trying new things to improve their sleep. Are you

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:00.640
<v Speaker 1>open to try new things?

0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:04.600
<v Speaker 2>Try anything? I'll try anything. It doesn't get in a

0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:05.440
<v Speaker 2>way my work schedule.

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.920
<v Speaker 1>There you go, right. And fifty two percent of adults

0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.960
<v Speaker 1>take naps at least once a week, but fifteen percent

0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 1>of adults nap every single day. You nap when you're desperate,

0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:17.920
<v Speaker 1>when you don't intend to. That's when you fall asleep

0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:18.360
<v Speaker 1>on the couch.

0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 2>The thing my nap is usually something that registers are

0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 2>my or ring that happens between eight and nine thirty

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:27.920
<v Speaker 2>because I passed out early and then I get up

0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:30.400
<v Speaker 2>and go get in the bed. But I think the

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:32.719
<v Speaker 2>naps you're talking about of people like in the middle.

0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Of the day they choose to take a nap. You

0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:39.520
<v Speaker 1>just actually fall asleep without realizing. That's that's called like desperation.

0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:43.040
<v Speaker 1>How many hours of sleep do you believe you get

0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:43.520
<v Speaker 1>each night?

0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 2>Like on average three to five? I average place four four.

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:51.280
<v Speaker 1>That is abysmal. Obviously, the recommendation is between seven and eight.

0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Only thirty one percent of adults get seven hours of

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 1>sleep or more.

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:55.640
<v Speaker 2>You don't have to be rude about it.

0:04:55.640 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Indeed, all right, so you know what the holy grail

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:00.680
<v Speaker 1>of sleep is?

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Correct?

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:03.040
<v Speaker 1>What all the experts say you need to do to

0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:04.760
<v Speaker 1>get a good night's rest? Can you name them?

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 2>What do you mean?

0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? What the experts say you should do before and

0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:12.920
<v Speaker 1>as you prepare to sleep? Are there? Do you have

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:14.760
<v Speaker 1>like a checklist? You know what that is? With you?

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:15.479
<v Speaker 2>I have one.

0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you've heard it over the years.

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:18.800
<v Speaker 2>I imagine telling you the same thing. That room needs

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:21.479
<v Speaker 2>to be dark, it needs to be a certain temperature,

0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:23.880
<v Speaker 2>it needs you need to make sure you don't look

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 2>at any screens ahead of time. I had somebody say

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 2>the bed should only be for sleep and sex. You

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:33.000
<v Speaker 2>should not be watching TV or on your computer or

0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 2>doing anything else. So I think we've all heard those

0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 2>our whole life. Yeah, what you're supposed to be doing.

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:42.880
<v Speaker 2>I think that's more specific stuff about when to eat

0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 2>and no alcohol as well.

0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you just named you just named everything. A cool, dark,

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:53.200
<v Speaker 1>quiet room, sixty to sixty seven degrees. I will say, Babe,

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>you like your rooms warm, bright and loud. Yeah, so

0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 1>that's I've had to adjust. Well, it's certainly not quiet.

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.720
<v Speaker 1>You like the TV on, you like it warm, and

0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:07.520
<v Speaker 1>with the TV on there are bright lights.

0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Can't do coal. I do dim the TV for you.

0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 1>You do, and I end up, Actually, I don't know

0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 1>if you realize I do this, but I actually create

0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 1>another pillow to block out the TV lights so I

0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:17.560
<v Speaker 1>don't see it when I'm.

0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:20.800
<v Speaker 2>Sleeping that for a while. So when I start dimming,

0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:22.640
<v Speaker 2>I take it down to zero on the brightness.

0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Yes, and then you know, sometimes if I get really hot,

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:28.280
<v Speaker 1>I'll sneak and turn the temperature down a little bit. Trust,

0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 1>So we deal with that. Yes, not drinking alcohol or

0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 1>caffeine in the several hours before bed, and then another

0:06:34.880 --> 0:06:37.160
<v Speaker 1>big thing is having that regular bedtime and wake up time.

0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 1>So you did everything that the experts say, but there's

0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:42.840
<v Speaker 1>a trend on TikTok and it boomed this year. It's

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:47.320
<v Speaker 1>called sleep maxing, So TikTok users, these are non scientific,

0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:53.080
<v Speaker 1>non expert based tips basically on how to improve your sleep.

0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Curious if you've heard of any of these, and these

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.680
<v Speaker 1>have a massed hundreds of thousands of us. The hashtag

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:02.520
<v Speaker 1>sleepmaxing is everye on TikTok. Nostril expanders.

0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:04.880
<v Speaker 2>You said sleep maxing, So.

0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, to maximize your sleep. It's the cool phrase sleep maxing.

0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:11.120
<v Speaker 1>So nostril expanders. Have you heard of that?

0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 2>How do you expand one's nostrils?

0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:16.440
<v Speaker 1>There's something you put in your nose to help your breathing.

0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 1>It like it's like it's a tape or something like.

0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.280
<v Speaker 1>It expands anyway, if you go online, you can buy

0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:25.880
<v Speaker 1>nostril expanders. People tape their mouths so that they don't

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:30.720
<v Speaker 1>snore it they think that that helps you. Yes, they've

0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 1>said don't do this, but they're all showing how you

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Actually you can buy mouth tape so that you don't snore.

0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 1>You it's supposed to help sleep apnea, maybe help your

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:42.800
<v Speaker 1>partners sleep better because you're not making noises. It prevents

0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:44.760
<v Speaker 1>dry mouth all of those.

0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:46.520
<v Speaker 2>Things possibly causes death. What are you doing?

0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:48.880
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's dangerous, but that's a part of this trend.

0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Weighted blankets. We've heard a lot about that. Some people

0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:53.800
<v Speaker 1>believe in red light therapy before they go to bed,

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 1>those led lights that are like everything now, apparently they

0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.640
<v Speaker 1>cure everything from acney to wrinkles to sleeping.

0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.440
<v Speaker 2>We're just talking.

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:07.000
<v Speaker 1>And then people take supplements like magnesium and melatonin. But

0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.000
<v Speaker 1>when people do this on their own and self prescribed,

0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.480
<v Speaker 1>they don't know how much they're taking and they aren't sure,

0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>so doctors don't recommend that either without speaking to a physician.

0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:18.280
<v Speaker 1>And then here's another one, eating kiwi before bed. Apparently

0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:23.000
<v Speaker 1>it has sera tonin boosting properties and antioxidants that help

0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 1>induce sleep. So I guess that couldn't harm anyone. If

0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 1>you want to eat some kiwi before bed.

0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Might be up in the middle of the night as.

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's fine, I'm thought about that. But the other

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.920
<v Speaker 1>thing that is a part of this trend, this sleep baccine,

0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:44.720
<v Speaker 1>is wearing some device like an or ring, which we

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:48.000
<v Speaker 1>started this year. This was the first year we wore

0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 1>our or rings fairly regularly, not every single night, But

0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:53.640
<v Speaker 1>here's the warning that comes with the or ring. Be

0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:57.240
<v Speaker 1>careful not to get obsessed and constantly check the app

0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:01.400
<v Speaker 1>and letting its feedback negatively influence your perspective on your

0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:03.440
<v Speaker 1>day or your upcoming sleep.

0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:05.199
<v Speaker 2>You know what your mom warned about that and why

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:07.280
<v Speaker 2>she didn't like the or ring, and it made sense.

0:09:07.520 --> 0:09:09.560
<v Speaker 2>We are addicted to it and we look can we

0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 2>use it for information? Usually we've gotten to a point now,

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:14.200
<v Speaker 2>don't you feel that when you get up in the

0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.760
<v Speaker 2>morning and how you feel, you can guess your score?

0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Yes, one hundred percent. And it has been to me,

0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:21.800
<v Speaker 1>it's it's been accurate.

0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:25.559
<v Speaker 2>It's been consistent. They've been great. But to their point

0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:27.720
<v Speaker 2>and to your mom's point, if you look at it

0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:29.959
<v Speaker 2>and you immediately say, wow, I didn't get a good

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:32.640
<v Speaker 2>night's sleep, you might get into the mindset of, oh,

0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:34.640
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be a terrible day, Oh my god, I

0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:36.880
<v Speaker 2>feel bad, and now every little thing that happens you.

0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Just blame it on your sleep score. And so yes,

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:42.680
<v Speaker 1>I agree, and that is the danger of these rings.

0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:45.480
<v Speaker 1>But when we come back, this is really interesting. Aura

0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>ring has now given not just a personal so if

0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:51.320
<v Speaker 1>you have one, it gives you your personal sleep data

0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:55.079
<v Speaker 1>for the year. But they also gave some really interesting

0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 1>sleep data. And think about it, they are tracking people

0:09:57.520 --> 0:10:01.400
<v Speaker 1>around the world which countries get the best sleep men

0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.880
<v Speaker 1>versus women. There's some really interesting trends in twenty twenty

0:10:04.920 --> 0:10:07.400
<v Speaker 1>five that Ara Ring was able to put together and

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 1>give to you about how we are sleeping. Welcome back

0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:23.920
<v Speaker 1>everyone to this New Year's Eve edition of Amy and TJ.

0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.560
<v Speaker 1>And we are talking about something that probably should be

0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:30.480
<v Speaker 1>on all of our New Year's resolution lists, sleep better,

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:34.840
<v Speaker 1>sleep more, because we're all failing at it, it seems

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:39.600
<v Speaker 1>collectively as a human population these days. And I don't

0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:42.520
<v Speaker 1>think we acknowledge how much. When we think about it,

0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:46.840
<v Speaker 1>it's obvious how much sleep or lack thereof affects our

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:48.960
<v Speaker 1>lives and how we treat each other and how we

0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:49.880
<v Speaker 1>treat ourselves.

0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:52.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if we do pay enough attention to that,

0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:56.000
<v Speaker 2>right we think it's our problem if we're not getting

0:10:56.080 --> 0:10:59.280
<v Speaker 2>enough sleep and how we feel, but it has everything

0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:01.800
<v Speaker 2>to do with everybody around you having to deal with

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:04.240
<v Speaker 2>your ass I mean included I come. Oh my goodness,

0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 2>the number of times I come to you and apologize

0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:09.200
<v Speaker 2>and say, hey, I'm not feeling I can't. I'm struggling

0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:12.720
<v Speaker 2>with it. I can tell. I guess that's just experience

0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:15.440
<v Speaker 2>and maybe maturity and being willing and to say, hey,

0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:18.600
<v Speaker 2>I know I'm not okay and I know why, and

0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:21.160
<v Speaker 2>I'll apolog up say I am so sorry. I have

0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:25.600
<v Speaker 2>now sleep is now something that I owe you.

0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:27.600
<v Speaker 1>You have said that exact same thing to me, and

0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:30.360
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate it because it does. It does put things

0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:33.280
<v Speaker 1>into perspective and it makes a lot of sense. Think

0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:35.679
<v Speaker 1>about it a baby, little kids when they need a

0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:37.760
<v Speaker 1>n app that's exactly what we are just we're just

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:40.480
<v Speaker 1>grown adults, but we're still acting the same when we

0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:42.480
<v Speaker 1>don't get enough sleep like babies.

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:43.480
<v Speaker 2>That's true.

0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:45.800
<v Speaker 1>That is true, all right. So when it comes to

0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:49.360
<v Speaker 1>rest or a ring put together after they have been

0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:52.120
<v Speaker 1>monitoring folks whom around the world with their sleep scores,

0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:55.960
<v Speaker 1>can you guess which countries and they're right next to

0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:59.920
<v Speaker 1>each other recorded the highest average sleep scores in the world,

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:04.760
<v Speaker 1>New Zealand and Australia. Is that interesting? Eighty for New Zealand,

0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.800
<v Speaker 1>seventy nine point four for Australia. That was their average

0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:09.880
<v Speaker 1>sleep score. And we know what our sleep scores have

0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:13.080
<v Speaker 1>been over the year. That has. That's pretty impressive to

0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.679
<v Speaker 1>have an average sleep score of eighty for a country,

0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:19.040
<v Speaker 1>for a nation, which one was that New Zealand highest,

0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:23.520
<v Speaker 1>the sleeping a lot and sleeping well, maybe because they're

0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:26.920
<v Speaker 1>separated geographically from a lot of the world. They just

0:12:26.960 --> 0:12:29.680
<v Speaker 1>feel like they're in their own little bubble and it's blissful.

0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, it has something to do with climate or limited technology.

0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Is something about New Zealand because I know how hard

0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:38.079
<v Speaker 2>it is to get an eighty four sleep score.

0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Do you know what New Zealand? New Zealand has incredible

0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.679
<v Speaker 1>And I've never been and I've always wanted to go hiking,

0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:46.960
<v Speaker 1>outdoor activities. People are outside and maybe by being active

0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:50.000
<v Speaker 1>and physically active you sleep better on that does make

0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of sense. And the fact that Australia is

0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:56.040
<v Speaker 1>right behind them at seventy nine point four that's interesting. Also,

0:12:56.679 --> 0:13:01.479
<v Speaker 1>there is a they say, a very interesting gender divis internationally,

0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:05.000
<v Speaker 1>women versus men. Who do you think sleep's better women

0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:05.400
<v Speaker 1>or men?

0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Men?

0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:11.160
<v Speaker 1>So women have higher they get significantly more sleep, is

0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:14.400
<v Speaker 1>what aurr Ring described it as. So women on average

0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:17.640
<v Speaker 1>get seven and a quarter hours of sleep each night.

0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:21.320
<v Speaker 1>That's impressive. Men, on the other hand, get six point

0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:25.720
<v Speaker 1>eight hours of sleep a night. That is an average.

0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:27.679
<v Speaker 1>Does that surprise you at all?

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.600
<v Speaker 2>No, I have no idea how people sleep. I have

0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:32.320
<v Speaker 2>no idea what sleep is, what it's about. I have

0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:32.720
<v Speaker 2>no idea.

0:13:32.720 --> 0:13:37.640
<v Speaker 1>No. And so women are getting more sleep. However, women

0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.559
<v Speaker 1>showed more higher stress responses. Something that the or ring

0:13:40.679 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 1>also monitors is your state of relaxation versus your state

0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.760
<v Speaker 1>of anxiety. Women had one hundred and twenty nine minutes

0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:51.360
<v Speaker 1>a day of physiological stress, so it's reading on your

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:55.160
<v Speaker 1>body metrics that the or ring is able to measure.

0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Women have over two hours of physiological stress each day,

0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.760
<v Speaker 1>men ninety seven minutes. That's a pretty big difference. That's

0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:07.520
<v Speaker 1>another half hour plus of stress that women have for

0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 1>whatever reason that we take on in our bodies that

0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 1>is readable by the Aura ring.

0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Maybe getting too much leep.

0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:20.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, So we have our Aura year enders and

0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:22.680
<v Speaker 1>this year get I don't know how long they've been

0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:24.720
<v Speaker 1>doing this. We've only had the or ring for one year,

0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:26.960
<v Speaker 1>but they have a new feature this year for any

0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:30.560
<v Speaker 1>of you Aura ring wearers. And I'm sure you've looked already,

0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.880
<v Speaker 1>because this started popping up last week and we didn't

0:14:32.880 --> 0:14:36.200
<v Speaker 1>look at it until today, and hopefully each year they'll

0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 1>get a little bit more and more. But they start

0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:40.680
<v Speaker 1>out with this fun thing. Based on your body metrics

0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:44.080
<v Speaker 1>and your sleep scores, they give you a type, either

0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:47.480
<v Speaker 1>your earth, water, fire, or air. So Earth types are

0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:53.000
<v Speaker 1>defined by resilience and consistency. Water types prioritize restorative sleep

0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:56.520
<v Speaker 1>and evening calm. Fire types had the daily movement stars,

0:14:56.520 --> 0:15:00.040
<v Speaker 1>they had high activity levels, and air types had a

0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 1>year noted for restoration and lightness. I guarantee you neither

0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:07.120
<v Speaker 1>one of us are water or air or earth.

0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:10.240
<v Speaker 2>So what that leaves what fire?

0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:13.480
<v Speaker 1>So when I opened mind, that's what I got. Fire?

0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Is that what you got?

0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:15.360
<v Speaker 2>Water?

0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:22.040
<v Speaker 1>What prioritized restorative sleep and evening calm? That's interesting.

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I'm not mind. Just a proved point. I mean, yes,

0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:26.520
<v Speaker 2>that's what it is. I don't know what that means,

0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:28.600
<v Speaker 2>but yes, it says I found calumnor sort of flow

0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:34.040
<v Speaker 2>in the evenings this year. Nothing refreshes your body like consistent,

0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 2>high quality rest. So keep riding the gentle wave into

0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:38.600
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty six.

0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:41.840
<v Speaker 1>You know what I will say at night, you do

0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:45.760
<v Speaker 1>calm down. You do slow down, maybe because you have to,

0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:47.520
<v Speaker 1>because your body's so exhausted.

0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:51.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's been sixteen straight hours of running. Yes, that's true.

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Rest Okay, So I was fire. That's you burning through

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:59.160
<v Speaker 1>your activity goals. You were a daily movement star. Keep

0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:02.040
<v Speaker 1>that momentum going, and remember that recovery time helps to

0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 1>fuel activity like oxygen to a flame. So let me

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.920
<v Speaker 1>know that I'm active, but probably not doing a good

0:16:08.040 --> 0:16:13.240
<v Speaker 1>job of being restorative. Anything else that popped up to

0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:15.520
<v Speaker 1>you with your we were looking at all the different

0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:16.800
<v Speaker 1>only January.

0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:18.520
<v Speaker 2>It is the only other thing that popped up to

0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:21.040
<v Speaker 2>me that it actually said that was the month I

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:26.440
<v Speaker 2>had last year of most restorative sleep. Okay, January. And

0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:28.880
<v Speaker 2>it was interesting that January is when I do what

0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:32.520
<v Speaker 2>I do dry January.

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:34.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh my goodness, I don't.

0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Drink in January. It is I'm about to do that

0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:40.520
<v Speaker 2>once again. And it said my best month was January

0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:42.440
<v Speaker 2>in terms of the type of sleep I got.

0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:48.200
<v Speaker 1>That is super super interesting. How about I Actually I

0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:51.760
<v Speaker 1>was laughing at the naps I took. How many naps

0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:54.440
<v Speaker 1>did you take for the year? They actually it says

0:16:54.440 --> 0:16:57.120
<v Speaker 1>forty two. It says I took thirty four naps. That's

0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.600
<v Speaker 1>probably close to being accurate.

0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:01.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't think think we took any naps, going to

0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:05.440
<v Speaker 2>sleep at eight o'clock on the couch because you passed out,

0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.120
<v Speaker 2>waking up at nine point thirty, going and taking off

0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:11.000
<v Speaker 2>your makeup and then getting in beds that they at

0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:13.199
<v Speaker 2>the registers as a nap, So I don't. You don't go.

0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:16.280
<v Speaker 2>Neither one of us goes at Oh it's two O'clock'm

0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:17.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna lay down for a minute.

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:19.880
<v Speaker 1>We don't take naps, neither one of us. I cannot

0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:22.520
<v Speaker 1>recall saying, hey babe, I'm gonna go take a nap

0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:25.119
<v Speaker 1>right now. We absolutely have not done that.

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.240
<v Speaker 2>I said I wanted to. I said I'm gonna try to.

0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>That is absolutely true. A cardiovascular age, was it mostly

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:33.320
<v Speaker 1>aligned with your actual age?

0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:34.680
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I think two years younger.

0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Mine's six point five years younger. And that reads with

0:17:37.040 --> 0:17:40.600
<v Speaker 1>the national trend. They say that women have lower cardiovascular

0:17:40.640 --> 0:17:43.720
<v Speaker 1>ages than men typically, or at least that's what they found.

0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:45.560
<v Speaker 1>They tell you how many steps you took, but you'd

0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:47.560
<v Speaker 1>have to be wearing your ring all day long, which

0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:50.919
<v Speaker 1>we absolutely don't. When were you most active did you

0:17:50.960 --> 0:17:51.639
<v Speaker 1>get that score?

0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:52.800
<v Speaker 2>I think it was eight am.

0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:55.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh, mine's a nine am. So yes, morning mover. And

0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:59.480
<v Speaker 1>that is absolutely true. So look, this is one of

0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:01.480
<v Speaker 1>those in interesting things where it just gives you a

0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:04.199
<v Speaker 1>little bit of a history of your year and what

0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:06.680
<v Speaker 1>you can improve on. My most active month was August

0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:09.640
<v Speaker 1>and my most active day is Friday. I think those

0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:12.160
<v Speaker 1>things make sense. It's warm, you're moving around a bunch.

0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:14.920
<v Speaker 1>That makes sense. What did you get?

0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:17.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't kind of remember a month in my most

0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:20.520
<v Speaker 2>active month. But again, we don't wear the rings during

0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:22.800
<v Speaker 2>the day. That's a little that's absolutely I certainly don't

0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:24.080
<v Speaker 2>wear mine during the day.

0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I wear mine more doing the day than you do,

0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:27.600
<v Speaker 1>and that's probably why I got a higher activity or

0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:31.439
<v Speaker 1>the whole fire thing. But look, anything that can measure

0:18:31.560 --> 0:18:35.080
<v Speaker 1>or I think, put sleep goals in front of your

0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:38.000
<v Speaker 1>head so that you are actually being intentional about when

0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:40.640
<v Speaker 1>you go to sleep, how you prepare for sleep, and

0:18:41.040 --> 0:18:44.280
<v Speaker 1>how important it is to you. Wearing these rings, they

0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:46.920
<v Speaker 1>can make you a little crazy with trying to not

0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:49.360
<v Speaker 1>get hung up on a bad sleep score, but they

0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:52.840
<v Speaker 1>do put sleeping in the forefront of your mind, and

0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I think that's something we forget about all the time,

0:18:55.320 --> 0:18:57.639
<v Speaker 1>and so it's something that we are both going to

0:18:57.640 --> 0:19:01.280
<v Speaker 1>try and do better about. In twenty twenty. Maybe this

0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:03.160
<v Speaker 1>is the year, babe, you're gonna get a sleep score,

0:19:03.240 --> 0:19:05.800
<v Speaker 1>or you're gonna start getting five to six hours at night.

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:07.000
<v Speaker 1>That would be wonderful.

0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:09.359
<v Speaker 2>It really is a plan I know I need to

0:19:09.359 --> 0:19:11.439
<v Speaker 2>do bestly. I'm getting older and this is damaging my

0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:13.680
<v Speaker 2>houme shortening my life by not getting enough sleep.

0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:16.199
<v Speaker 1>I know that, and we would like you around for

0:19:16.280 --> 0:19:16.760
<v Speaker 1>as long.

0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:17.640
<v Speaker 2>As possible the week.

0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Sabine and me and all the family and friends who

0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:24.359
<v Speaker 1>love you so much probably got that too, right and

0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:27.360
<v Speaker 1>without everyone, we hope you get some rest, but certainly

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:30.080
<v Speaker 1>have some fun tonight first, and then maybe maybe start

0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:32.600
<v Speaker 1>on January one. What we always appreciate you listening to us.

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:35.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm maybe roboch alongside t. J. Holmes. We'll talk to

0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:36.240
<v Speaker 1>you soon.
