Is a lack of great sleep ruining our lives and our running? Claire wanted to find out, so she invited sleep expert Dr Shelby Harris on the show to talk about it. Dr. Harris is the former director of the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Program at the Sleep-Wake Disorders Center at Montefiore Medical Center. Now in private practice in White Plains, NY, she treats a wide variety of sleep disorders such as insomnia, nightmares, circadian rhythm disorders, narcolepsy, and more using evidence-based behavioral treatments.

She has appeared on the Today Show, World News with Diane Sawyer, Good Morning America, and more. In other words, she knows a lot about sleep and she is a runner herself. Claire asks her how we can better decide to prioritize sleep over running and whether afternoon runners or morning runners are doing a better job with their sleep. She talks about how much sleep we really need and how to get more of it. And if you are a runner with kids, this episode is especially for you because your little ones might just need a little more sleep too. And just so you know, if you are listening to this at 2am because you can't sleep and you just happen to fall into dreamland before the show is over, we will take it as a compliment!

Countless individuals are looking for the answer to their persistent sleep problems. Thanks to Dr. Michael Perlis, many of them are finding it. Michael is a psychologist and sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylvania. He and his colleagues wrote a fantastic treatment manual for cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), the first-line treatment for insomnia. If you have insomnia and haven't tried any treatment for it, start with CBT-I. If you've tried everything else without much relief, try CBT-I. As you'll hear in our discussion, Michael is working to better understand human sleep: How much sleep do we really need? Why do so many of us struggle with insomnia? What's the most effective insomnia treatment? Why does stress disrupt sleep? How does chronic insomnia develop? What role can medication play in treating insomnia? Why is it best to get out of bed when we can't sleep? Is sleep hygiene an effective treatment for insomnia? Michael lives close to the data as he works to build an empirical science of sleep. At the same time, he's willing to make intriguing hypotheses about sleep based on the available evidence. For example, he wonders if a fundamental shift in how sleep medications are prescribed may be more effective, as he and I discuss. Michael has a rich understanding of sleep and insomnia, so I'm looking forward to continuing our conversation in a follow-up podcast. I'll provide more information later but I'll be soliciting your questions about sleep and insomnia, which I'll then pose to Michael in our next discussion. Michael L. Perlis, PhD, is Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine and Director of the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Program at Penn. He is recognized internationally for his expertise in Behavioral Sleep Medicine and has co-authored multiple pioneering books in the field, including Cognitive Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia: A Sessions-by-Session Guide*. Michael is the author of over 150 articles and book chapters on sleep and he serves on the editorial board of several sleep journals. He was one of the five organizing and founding members of the Society of Behavioral Sleep Medicine (SBSM), and served as the SBSM’s first president (2010-2011).
