The Future of Everything presented by Stanford Engineering

Neurobiologist Jamie Zeitzer is an expert on sleep – or, more accurately, an expert on why so many can't sleep. He notes that, ironically, it's often anxiety about sleep that prevents good sleep. In short, we lose sleep over lost sleep. Wearables and other tools can help but only to a point, and medications do not induce natural sleep. Instead, he counsels consistent routines, less stimulation at bedtime, and cognitive behavioral therapy to reduce worry about insomnia. Unfortunately, you can't work harder to get better sleep – you have to learn to relax, Zeitzer tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

"Ugh, it's 3am, I have to be up at 6...  that's in 3 hours. I only went to bed at 11. That means I've only gotten 4 hours of sleep.  I'm wide awake. I can't survive off of 4 hours of sleep. Why am I up right now???”Anyone been through this middle of the night spiral full of complicated word problems you thought you left behind in 7th grade? Janet Whalen says NO. MATH. AT. NIGHT!!!! She is a Sleep & Life coach and the founder of Permission to Sleep. As someone who suffered from insomnia herself to now self proclaimed "the world's most amazing sleeper” she shares her tips for those also suffering from the stress of not getting the rest they deserve.First things first, Janet is NOT a doctor. Anyone who may be suffering from problems that could be medical, such as sleep apnea, night terrors, or trauma requiring sleep medication, should seek a sleep study and medical advice from their doctor. Janet is a champion of the idea of embracing wakefulness. She even poses this super deep question, Why do we need sleep? The best way to get sleep and rest is to be calm, so preventing that 3 a.m. freak-out is key. Just because you're awake doesn't mean something has gone wrong. Another factor we discuss is... what's keeping you awake? Your personal drama and anxiety? Aging and hormones? Your partner's snoring? Each requires individual attention and strategies that Janet has ideas for.What about melatonin? That'll solve all my problems, right? Wrong! Janet explains the purpose of this supplement and who really needs it…  and what can happen when you're oversupplementing.Sleep is sacred. It's special. It rejuvenates us. But it should not be a source of stress. That's where Janet comes in! Unfortunately, Janet isn't accepting clients at this time.What's Inside:What it looks like to give yourself the rest and sleep you deserve.How embracing wakefulness can actually promote better sleep.The culprit of your insomnia and what you can do about it. Aging, hormones, and their effect on your sleep.The dangers of oversupplementing melatonin?What does sleep medication really do?“Sleep Divorce” may not be as bad as it sounds.I had a ton of questions for Sleep & Life Coach Janet Whalen, what did I miss?

Iv'e recently noticed an interesting pattern in my sleep. Those days where I'm strictly low carb-high protein, I tend to wake up at 4 am regardless of what time I go to sleep. I usually go to bed at 10, but even when I went to bed at 12 - same thing happened! It's always the same time - betwwen 4 to 4:30 and from then until wake-up time I'm drowsing on and off! The other days when I'm adding carb throughout the day, my sleep is amazing! I've tried adding a little carb at night on my low carb days, sometimes a banana, sometimes even a piece of cake, but to no sucess. I take vitamin D every day both from the sun (when available) and from supplements (10000 UI). I'm 30 years old and I work out 3-4 days a week bodybuilding style. Oh and I fall asleep quite fast at night, but it's the waking up that bothers me. Hope you can help me, and waiting for your kosher certification on your LMNT's. Israel from Brooklyn   Brother's horrific fibro post op kidney transplant Longest time listener, first time caller, My brother (28 years old) suddenly went into kidney failure for no reason anyone has provided a good explanation for on Christmas Day 2019. He was on hemodialysis and then peritoneal dialysis until July of 2022. He underwent a kidney transplant from the best human among us. ‘Phase II' of his transplant included (was supposed to include) receiving stem cells from his donor post operatively, with emerging data showing reduction of anti-rejection meds with treatment. The trial was cancelled 10 days before he was supposed to participate, and who knows what happened to these stem cells. He is currently experiencing excruciating full body pains and has been diagnosed with medication induced fibromyalgia. He eats SQUEAKY clean, 5'10/160lbs but has poor tolerance to exercise because getting hot or sweating makes him itch excessively. He is nearing hopelessness due to the severity of symptoms and since his clinical trial was cancelled, will never receive those already harvested/cultured stem cells. I can't watch him suffer anymore and gratefully ask for any suggestions or referrals you could provide. You guys rock - found you guys in 2013 and it changed everything for me.

She graduated from the University College Cork School of Medicine, completed her Psychiatric residency at Henry Ford Health System, and a fellowship in Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School. She has also received training through the Maharishi Ayurveda Association of America and the Integrative Psychiatry Institute. Having grown up in an Indian family in Canada and lived in several different countries, Dr. Bhopal understands what it means to be multicultural and is attuned to the unique challenges faced by immigrants and expats. She's also a meditator and brings her experiences with yoga and meditation into clinical practice, blending the best of ancient wisdom and modern medicine. Dr. Bhopal is the founder of IntraBalance Integrative Psychiatry & Sleep in San Francisco and is a founding member of the SameHere Psych Alliance, a global initiative to reduce the stigma around mental health. She's on a mission to make mental wellness and the science of sleep easy to understand and accessible to all. In this episode, we dive into:  “Weaning Off Sleep Medication” Why did Nishi choose the path of psychiatry and eventually focus on sleep? How is a clinical psychiatrist different from a psychologist? Millions of people worldwide take prescription drugs to fall asleep and have the potential danger of getting addicted to them. Frequent use of sleep medication has been linked to greater mortality rates. This is a very concerning issue. What are sleeping pills (specifically benzodiazepines and Z-drugs)? What do people begin to take them? Are they prescribed short term? Are they self prescribed?  Typically this class of medication is potentially addictive. What are the side effects of these drugs? Are there physiological ramifications as well? What are short term side effects? What are long term side effects? Can some of them be frightening? Why don't they work long term? Is it because they lose effect? Is it also that they are potentially dangerous and impact you beyond just sleep? Often, people end up scared of even attempting to let go of sleeping medication. There are several instances where people have been on them for years and close their eyes to impact because they are so fearful of stopping them. Can they wean off? How can they get off them?  What are four categories of root causes of poor sleep? What about supplements or over the counter medications for sleep? How can you improve sleep instead of taking sleeping pills?
