How To Improve Your Sleep | Matthew Walker

Ойын-сауық

Watch more, Matthew Walker Busts Sleep Myths: • Matthew Walker Busts S...
Sleep is one of the most important aspects of our life, health and longevity and yet it is increasingly neglected in twenty-first-century society, with devastating consequences: every major disease in the developed world - Alzheimer's, cancer, obesity, diabetes - has very strong causal links to deficient sleep.
In this book, the first of its kind written by a scientific expert, Professor Matthew Walker explores twenty years of cutting-edge research to solve the mystery of why sleep matters. Looking at creatures from across the animal kingdom as well as major human studies, Why We Sleep delves into everything from what really happens during REM sleep to how caffeine and alcohol affect sleep and why our sleep patterns change across a lifetime, transforming our appreciation of the extraordinary phenomenon that safeguards our existence.

Now that I know "a lot" about the importance of sleeping, I'm taking good care of it. I've been getting 7-8 hours every night and my life has improved tremendously!

    Workout people. Seriously. I always that i had insomnia ever since i was young. I started working out and within in a month i noticed a huge difference. I would read 15 minutes before bed and as soon as i laid my head down i was out. I got lazy last year and stopped working out. The insomnia came right back. It might be a pain to go and hit the gym everyday but when you do it pays off...not only with sleep but with overall health.

    I had been sleep deprived from my 16 until my 24 years of age (getting 3 to 4 hours of sleep per night). What I got as a result were panic attacks, anxiety, lack of memory and difficulties to learn (in college and work). My professional life was deeply affected by this, and I still struggle with my anxiety now. Currently, dealing with a restless partner during the night, I gained back to the old results of sleeping deprivation, and I say: it is torture. I hope I can convince him to do a "sleep hygiene" as we call it in Brazil, so I can be sleep properly and be happy again =(

    Good luck with that. Also worth considering whether you have a caffeine sensitivity. If you're prone to anxiety then caffeine could be a problem - it could be jacking up your whole nervous system. I genuinely can't have caffeine even first thing in the morning - if I do I'll be up till 3 or 4.

    I've long been fascinated by sleep and as someone who has always been a "night owl" mornings were always rough for me. From the time I started school until the last day I worked I relied on an alarm clock to wake up in the morning. I hated that SOB more than anything on the planet! The thing I remember most about my last day at work was the happiness about turning the alarm clock off and never turning it on again! What a huge difference that made in my life. I immediately started sleeping better and feeling better throughout the day. It's truly amazing how much healthier it is to wake up naturally vs being startled by that damn alarm.

I felt like I could accomplish anytrhing.The only explanation I have is that I was having a lucid dream just before I awoke. I have practiced trying to replicate lucid dreaming to see if that was the reason, but without luck. Most people I tell this story to, look at me like I am a loon but I remember that day, I will never forget it and if I could wake with that feeling just several times a week, I feel my life would have been much different.

    So here's my question (following a story that I will use as an example): Regarding how sleep is not a "credit system" and you can't make up for damage already done: My father is a doctor and is creeping into his 70s. About 5 years ago, the hospital that he works for started having him do all-night on-call duty once a week and it was wreaking havoc on his health in every way possible. He's a tri-athlete and is the healthiest person I know, even at his age. He had a heart scan performed while he was doing this on-call work and his doctors warned him that it did not look good and he was at a very high risk for a heart attack. We had to have a family intervention and I was able to convince him that the on-call work was going to kill him. He has since quit that side of his job (he's looking to retire soon anyway) and had a repeat heart scan. Just a few MONTHS later, his heart scan is now pristine and he's back to where he was previously. He's never been happier emotionally, physically, spiritually, whereas he was in pretty bad shape before. So taking him as an example: I understand that he was doing on-call/all-nighter work every Saturday and it was not possible for him to "catch up" on sleep other days of the week. But now that he has completely shifted his lifestyle, it's only taken a few months for his heart scan to come back "very good" from "very bad." And that was from YEARS of this on-call work. In this way, it would seem that you CAN turn things around, even after damage has been done. My father is physical proof. I've watched Dr. Walker's Masterclasses, watched many of his KZread videos, and read parts of his book "Why We Sleep," but I can't find where he might address this. Whenever he talks, it's always regarding how "once damage is done, it's done." I personally also became very ill at one point in my career as a flight attendant and for the sake of my health, I had to resign for a year. I've since returned and have been back for the past 3 years, better able to manage my health and sleep habits. But I would also be an example of someone who was in a very bad place (I couldn't even function), but restored a sense of normalcy and have been able to reverse much of the inflammation that was caused during that hard time. My job will also become easier for me as I get older, because I will gain more seniority within my company and have more choice regarding which trips I want to fly... meaning, I won't have to fly the redeyes or "leanovers" anymore. I don't like the fact that I'm doing my body a disservice with this kind of work, but going back to a 9-5 is not for me and I'm hoping to rest in the solace that it will only get better. I would like to think, with my father being an example, that the damage I've done to my body thus far won't be something that will haunt me later. If someone knows where he might address this topic, I would be interested!

    The tips are great. Also, try having a routine the last 30 minutes before going to sleep such as putting the phone down, turning off the computer and getting some water. Your routine can vary, but doing this every day will let your mind and body know it's time to fall asleep. Soothing sleeping music can also calm down your brain from overthinking and relax your senses into sleep.

My question to any bad sleepers out there is: do you feel also feel this tingling of nerves after a poor/short sleep? Or is it maybe that I'm just sensitive to it because it's so unnatural a condition for me.

But still I've always suffered from extremely light sleep, a problem that is getting worse with age and which I wished Walker had addressed in his book- why, when taking away factors like caffeine, alcohol, unhealthy food or late meals (which I've stopped completely), are some people very light sleepers who are extremely sensitive to any noise? I live with flatmates (cannot afford to live on my own at this point), and I always wake up when they go to bed much later than me. I have gotten better at falling back asleep afterwards (it used to take me hours, in the days when I had lots of stress and still drank coffee), but still I need a total of at least 9 hours in bed to wake up somewhat refreshed, and I still almost never wake up energized, my sleep having been interrupted exactly midway. Like you I immediately sense the effects of any reduction in sleep- I also feel those "needles", especially in my upper arms in the morning, together with a head that is not calm. I immediately notice how I suddenly need 30 seconds to remember someone's name, how I'm emotional and irritable. I only sleep very well when the others are gone for the night, and I worry that it is unrealistic to want to live alone for the rest of my life, or to inquire about people's living habits and only be able to coexist with someone who goes to bed by 9:30 or 10, like me, which, in today's culture, is very difficult to find, at least where I am. I know a sleep specialist might be able to help, but it's hard to find someone where I live.

    @CCP - XJT习近平思想 i have been experiencing it for the past years if i dont get enough sleep or no sleep at all i sometimes feel like im not sleeping but when i look at the time it's already 4 hours in bed. Yes i can feel tingling and pins and needles in my hand it is because of my nerve anxiety and when i go to the doctor to get some check up he suddenly told me to get my blood and tested it in the laboratory and they found out that i have lacked in potassium and high in sodium that ease my mind for a bit but for sure anxiety is the main reason of this tingling pins and needles in my hands and other parts of my body. I'm Praying for us to be better sooner you can ask me also why did i get to this situation in the first place btw im only 20 years old

    According to this I don’t know why am still alive. Im 76 and as a lifetime insomniac if I ever get five hours sleep it’s a record for me. Yet I am fit and well. I believe everyone is different. Some people need more sleep than others - he is making some huge generalisations here .

    I believe you can make up sleep. Also you might get much enough sleep but the sleep you get its probably quality

    I also found this meditation video last night. I did it before going to bed and had a GREAT night of sleep. You can try it too if you are like me and have such a hard time going to sleep =/ kzread.info/dash/bejne/hpuJm5pmg7W4qKw.html

    This is definitely true. If I drink alcohol I wake up through out the night. And just plain out of it the following day.... so I don’t drink anymore. And I don’t smoke. Just recently stoped drinking coffee. Today is my 4th day. First 3 days I had bad head aches and felt tired . Today very little headache and I have a lot of energy. Boom. Get your sleep in. Thanks doc.
