Shawn Stevenson is the host of The Model Health Show podcast, which is #1 Health podcast on iTunes and also a a bestselling author of “Sleep Smarter”
I can’t think of a better person to talk to about new parents and sleep strategies and habits!
Here's some of the topics we're getting into:
Importance of self-care as a parent How sleep or sleeplessness affects our hormone balance and overall health The myth of everyone needing 7-8 hours of sleep a night (spoiler: it’s not all about the quantity, but also the quality of sleep) What are sleep cycles and the 4 stages of sleep Why having a drink before hitting the hay may be counter-productive Risks of chronic sleep deprivation “Paying back” the sleep debt vs lifestyle strategies to avoid the sleep debt in the first place Using melatonin supplements NappingResources:
