The Bright Method Podcast: Realistic Time Management for Working Women
Let's talk about sleep. If you've listened to this podcast for a while, you know I'm pretty obsessed with sleep. I talked about it during my Year of Ease episode (ep. 9) and in the health episode (ep. 82) about how to realistically make time for your health—and I shared how, in my totally inexpert opinion, if you don't know where to start, I'd start with sleep because of the ripple effect it has on everything else. But here's the thing: while I care a lot about sleep, I'm not an expert in it. That's why I'm so thrilled to bring you this conversation with someone who is: Dr. Funke Afolabi-Brown. Dr. Funke Afolabi-Brown is a triple board-certified sleep physician and the founder of Restful Sleep MD. She is also the best-selling author of Beyond Tired—A Sleep Physician's Guide to Solving Your Child's Sleep Problems for Good. She helps individuals prioritize sleep, achieve optimal health, thrive, and live to their fullest potential. As a busy physician and mom of two, she understands the impact of sleep deprivation on our mental, physical, and emotional health. She has made it her mission to help others make sleep a priority. She also works with organizations and businesses to improve their health by incorporating healthy sleep into their wellness journey. She is a consultant and a speaker on regional, national, and international platforms. She has also published several peer-reviewed manuscripts on various sleep disorders. She obtained her sleep medicine training at the University of Pennsylvania. In this episode, we talk about: Why sleep is so important and what can happen when we don't get enough of it The ripple effects of both sleep deprivation and solid sleep—on your mood, productivity, memory, immune system, mental health, decision-making, and long-term health how to improve both the quantity and quality of your sleep, especially when life is busy A helpful CREATE acronym Dr. Funke walks us through to realistically improve sleep hygiene For women with ADHD, some additional practical strategies that might help Tips for shift workers and anyone whose job schedule makes sleep harder to protect How to start realistically making small changes to protect your sleep even in full seasons of life This episode is packed with helpful, actionable information. Whether you're just curious about what better sleep could feel like—or you're in the thick of a sleep-deprived season and looking for any traction you can get—I hope this helps. I'm so excited to share Dr. Funke with you as she's such a generous, practical resource in this space.

Many millions of people worldwide complain of insomnia, putting them at risk for poor health outcomes. Charlene Gamaldo, a sleep expert at Johns Hopkins, says while it is tempting to just turn to a medicine to help you sleep, that's … Solving sleep problems starts with an assessment, Elizabeth Tracey reports.

If you're struggling with sleep at the moment I know who much it sucks. But you can change your sleep. Listen on to this fun conversation I had with my sleep coach Elina Winnel to discover the REAL reason I had insomnia last year and what we did to heal my sleep.
An episode that tosses and turns!Here's what's in store for today's episode: * Autistic people struggle greatly with sleep, and while it's not in the DSM, it definitely should be.* Many autistic traits overlap with factors that could contribute to sleep issues.* For example, sleep apnea is common in autistic individuals but often goes undiagnosed. Factors like muscle tone differences, sensory sensitivities, and co-occurring conditions may contribute, yet research on this connection remains limited.* A major factor leading to autistic burnout is not getting the physical rest we need, which ultimately contributes to exhaustion and burnout.* Autistic individuals also often experience delayed sleep phase onset, meaning we tend to be naturally late risers and stay up later as well.* Sleep issues are a common part of everyday life for autistic individuals, but they can be even more challenging for autistic children, who have less control over their routines.* One of the most common sleep problems is simply taking more than two minutes to fall asleep after lying down, a struggle that many autistic people face.* Additionally, both insomnia and hypersomnia are very common among autistic individuals.* Our interoceptive abilities are impaired, so while they may signal that something is wrong, they don't always let us know when we're tired.* Also, our bodies are also hypersensitive to environmental factors, making sleep even more difficult.* Autistic people struggle with transitions, making it difficult to both fall asleep and wake up.* One of the best ways for autistic people to reduce sleep problems is by embracing a low-demand lifestyle.* Sleep isn't optional—it's essential. Prioritizing good, healthy sleep is crucial to supporting your needs.* The best way to combat autistic sleep troubles is by creating a lifestyle that aligns with your needs—this means reducing unnecessary demands, honoring your natural sleep-wake cycle, managing sensory inputs, and building routines that support rest rather than force it.“We autistic people have meat bodies that just fall apart. And without good, restorative sleep, our bodies don't get the rest they need in order to rebuild. ” - Matt“Without good sleep, our bodies deteriorate, we might get fibromyalgia, it raises our cortisol levels, it can lead to epigenetic changes, it can be a factor that leads into POTS and lupus - a decreased immune response, or an increased immune response because we're on high alert all the time.” - Matt“It's not the kid's fault. It's not the parent's fault for how you wake up. It's society's fault for waking you up when you should not biologically be awake.” - Matt“I could have gone to a doctor's appointment every day for my narcolepsy, and they would have tried to find a cure. The cure was creating a low-demand lifestyle where I was unmasked and accepted that I am a part of a beautiful, rich tapestry of autistic culture. And then my narcolepsy went away, no drugs included.” - Angela “God, the obsession with melatonin. How about a life that you don't need melatonin from?” - AngelaDid you enjoy this episode? We explored how sleep challenges impact autistic individuals, from delayed sleep phases to sensory sensitivities and struggles with transitions.

Did you know that up to 40% of adults in Western countries struggle to get enough sleep? While some societies have historically never even had a word for insomnia, our modern world has created an epidemic of sleep problems, which affect not only our creativity, empathy, appetite and mood but countless other aspects of who we are, too. This week's guest is Professor Guy Leschziner, a neurologist at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospitals in London and a professor of neurology and sleep medicine at King's College London. He is also the author of several books, including The Secret World Of Sleep: Tales of Nightmares and Neuroscience and his latest, Seven Deadly Sins: The Biology of Being Human. In this fascinating conversation, we discuss: The crucial distinction between chronic sleep deprivation and clinical insomnia - understanding which affects you is key to finding the right solution The importance of sleep quality - not just quantity - and why some people can sleep for hours, yet still feel unrested An incredible treatment called CBT-I (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia) which has an 80% success rate for insomnia The real impact of common lifestyle factors on sleep - like caffeine, screen time, and blue light The pros and cons of sleep trackers Practical strategies for shift workers - discover how to adapt your sleep schedule if your work includes irregular hours The fascinating connection between societal sleep deprivation and our collective wellbeing With over two decades of experience running sleep disorder clinics, Guy brings clarity to the often confusing world of sleep, offering evidence-based insights and practical solutions throughout our conversation. As he points out, our sleep needs are highly individual, so I hope this episode guides you in finding the approach that works best for you. Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

When it comes to health and wellness, it's easy to focus on diet, exercise, and even supplements, but sleep often takes a back seat.

How to prevent sleep disorders? The quality of our night's rest and our overall health depend on our sleep posture and on what we do before going to bed. Suffer from snoring? Can't wake up? Have problems with falling asleep? Let's check out the best recommendations from top specialists on how to sleep properly to stay healthy. Here's some great news: the problem with waking up quickly in the morning is finally solved! Other videos you might like: Science Explains How Much Sleep You Need Depending on Your Age • Science Explains How Much Sleep You N... How to Fall Asleep in 2 Minutes According to the US Navy • How to Fall Asleep in 2 Minutes I Decided to Sleep for 4 Hours a Day, See What Happened • I Decided to Sleep for 4 Hours a Day,...

Also, don't sleep on your stomach since it causes misalignment of the shoulders. If you have back pain, you need to maintain the normal curves of your spine. If your mattress is overly soft, it's time to get a new one. If you usually sleep on your side, your pillow shouldn't be too high (no thicker than 6 inches). Ideally, the height of your pillow should match the width of one shoulder. Overly soft pillows can cause your head to tilt backward and increase snoring. Use an extra pillow or elevate the head of your bed a few inches to stop your tongue from falling back over your windpipe. To stop leg cramps, get the calf muscle stretched and strengthened. Also, try doing yoga or massaging your legs before bedtime. Keep in mind that you should exercise regularly to achieve good results. If you suffer from frequent heartburn, lie on your left side while sleeping. The left-side sleeping position prevents stomach contents from coming back up into the esophagus that preventing heartburn. Exercise in the morning and afternoon. Exercises help you tone your whole body, improves your blood circulation, and helps you fall asleep much faster. If you want to wake up early in the morning, all you need to do is go to bed early in the evening. Set your alarm for the same time every day, even on the weekends. You will see the results within a week! Keep in mind that sleep disorders can be caused by many factors, from fatigue and uncomfortable shoes to problems with the digestive or nervous system. Only a doctor can determine the cause of the problem and advise on the right treatment!

As women age and enter the perimenopause stage, they undergo many physiological changes, including significant hormonal fluctuations that can impact their overall health. That's why there's a need for us to understand the interplay between hormonal shifts and the symptoms associated with breast implants. By exploring more about this connection, we can develop more effective strategies for managing and alleviating the symptoms of breast implant illness. Today, we are joined by Dr. Betty Murray, a renowned women's health advocate, and a certified Functional Medicine Practitioner. Through her PhD research, she identified key factors contributing to hormone and metabolic imbalances in women over 40. So make sure to tune in to this episode and gain valuable insights from her extensive expertise, which can offer practical solutions and guidance for navigating health challenges in this stage of life. Perimenopause and Breast Implant Illness, Hormone Disruption, and Inflammatory Testing Many women experience breast implant illness alongside perimenopause due to overlapping age ranges and hormonal changes during this period. Perimenopause often begins around age 42 and can last for an average of eight years, although symptoms can start earlier and last longer for some women. This involves significant hormonal fluctuations that can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and mood swings. When women with breast implants reach the perimenopausal stage, they may attribute their symptoms solely to breast implant illness, even though perimenopause may also play a significant role. Inflammatory conditions like breast implant illness can exacerbate hormonal imbalances by suppressing normal hormone function. Chronic inflammation, including autoimmune conditions and other medical device-related issues, can also significantly impact hormone levels and overall well-being. Unfortunately, conventional medicine often overlooks the connection between inflammation and hormonal imbalance, leaving many women without comprehensive care. Moreover, while traditional tests such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and sedimentation rates can indicate chronic inflammation, they are nonspecific and do not pinpoint the exact cause. Addressing inflammation holistically, alongside hormone management, can help alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life for women dealing with both perimenopause and breast implant illness. Integrating lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management can further enhance overall well-being and support recovery. Environmental Toxicity, Mold Exposure, and Its Effects on Human Health Understanding an individual's genetic detoxification capabilities is crucial in assessing their toxicity burden, which includes exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, heavy metals, and mold. Mold exposure, especially common in areas with heavy rain, can significantly impact hormonal and endocrine systems, causing severe health issues. Dr. Murray notes that environmental toxins are at unprecedented levels and our bodies struggle to manage them, as they have to be processed by the liver similarly to internal toxins. It must be emphasized that toxins can affect health even in remote areas, as shown by research in Antarctica. Mold, in particular, disrupts the hypothalamic control of hormones and can lead to chronic illness, which can be challenging to diagnose. Advanced testing for toxins and mold is crucial for accurately diagnosing and managing chronic health issues. These tests help pinpoint the exact nature of toxic exposure, enabling more targeted and effective treatment strategies. By understanding the specific toxins and mold present, healthcare providers can develop personalized detoxification and remediation plans, significantly improving patient outcomes and addressing the root causes of chronic symptoms that might otherwise go undetected. Hormone Imbalance and Its Impact on Women's Health, Including Thyroid Issues, Adrenal Fatigue, and Menopause Hormone imbalances, such as thyroid issues, adrenal fatigue, and menopause, are often more common than people realize. Many patients with symptoms like facial swelling and persistent fatigue mistakenly attribute their problems to thyroid dysfunction, when the root cause could be mold toxicity or other environmental factors. This misunderstanding can hinder effective treatment, as addressing these underlying toxins frequently resolves hormonal imbalances. Moreover, high stress levels and inadequate recovery further complicate hormonal health, impacting thyroid function, cortisol levels, and overall endocrine balance. Comprehensive testing for toxins and mold, combined with managing stress and improving lifestyle habits, is crucial for effectively tackling these complex health issues. How to Improve Sleep Quality by Reducing Exposure to Toxins and Optimizing Hormone Levels Improving sleep quality requires a proactive approach to both reducing exposure to toxins and optimizing hormone levels. One key strategy is to create a sleep-friendly environment by keeping the bedroom dark, cool, and free from electronic distractions. Additionally, it's important to finish eating your last meal well before bedtime to allow for proper digestion, as eating late can disrupt sleep. Avoiding alcohol and late-night snacking further contributes to uninterrupted rest, enhancing sleep quality. Addressing environmental toxins is also essential for better sleep and overall health. Many commonly used pesticides and herbicides act as endocrine disruptors, which can interfere with hormonal balance. To minimize exposure, choose organic fruits and vegetables, particularly those that are not peeled, and opt for organic animal proteins and dairy products. Reducing reliance on plastics by using glass containers for food and beverages can help avoid harmful chemicals often found in plastic products. Incorporating small, consistent changes into your routine can have a significant impact on your health. Improving food quality, enhancing air quality, and adopting practices like intermittent fasting can all contribute to better sleep and hormone regulation. These adjustments, combined with appropriate supplementation if needed, can help reduce inflammation, support hormonal balance, and improve overall well-being, leading to more restorative and effective sleep. Using Wearable Technology to Monitor and Improve Sleep To enhance recovery, prioritizing sleep quality is crucial, as the body's ability to detoxify and heal is intimately linked to restorative rest. The process of detoxification begins at the cellular level before being processed by the liver, making it essential to support every cell in the body. To effectively monitor and improve sleep quality, wearable technology such as Ultrahuman Ring or Whoop can be invaluable. These provide detailed insights into sleep patterns, including the duration and quality of deep sleep, which is vital for recovery. Accurate data helps individuals understand their sleep needs and identify areas for improvement, such as achieving an optimal balance of sleep stages. Women, particularly those in perimenopause or menopause, often face challenges in maintaining adequate deep sleep, which can be shorter and less restorative compared to men. Hormonal disruptions during these stages can further complicate achieving sufficient deep sleep, which is crucial for growth hormone release and overall recovery. By utilizing wearable technology, individuals can track their sleep metrics more precisely and address issues affecting their rest. For instance, a cancer patient's low heart rate variability and minimal deep sleep highlighted the need for targeted interventions to improve sleep quality and recovery outcomes. To optimize recovery, it's essential to focus on both the quantity and quality of sleep. Effective sleep strategies include reducing exposure to disruptions, such as noise and light, and managing stress levels. Incorporating supportive measures like hyperbaric oxygen therapy, lymphatic massage, and proper nutrition can also complement efforts to enhance sleep. However, without sufficient deep sleep, these interventions alone may not be enough. And so, using wearable technology to monitor and adjust sleep patterns remains a key component in achieving optimal recovery and overall health. Sleep Problems and Their Impact on Women's Health Many women struggle to achieve deep sleep, which is crucial for memory consolidation and emotional processing. Deep sleep helps store short-term memories, akin to organizing information in filing cabinets, making it essential for cognitive health. When women experience disruptions in deep sleep, such as during perimenopause or menopause, it can lead to increased anxiety and depression, as REM sleep, which processes emotions, is also affected. Sleep problems can also be linked to underlying conditions like obstructive sleep apnea or upper airway resistance. While snoring is a common sign, issues such as narrow airways can go undiagnosed, leading to poor sleep quality and an increased risk of cognitive decline. Individuals with persistent sleep issues should consider undergoing a sleep study to identify and address potential problems, as untreated sleep disorders can contribute to serious health issues, including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. Overall, addressing sleep quality is crucial for overall health, particularly in managing cognitive and emotional well-being. For those with chronic sleep disturbances, exploring potential underlying conditions and seeking appropriate treatment can significantly improve both sleep quality and overall health outcomes.
