EP 041 - How to Sleep Better at Night Naturally with Dr. Michael Breus, the Sleep Doctor

Inner Path Seekers | Lessons for Life

Sleep is something we all need, whether we like it or not. Almost everyone has questions about sleep and wants to improve it. As we know, not sleeping well for even one night affects us the next day.

Many have experienced poor sleep for weeks, months, or years, leading to emotional and physical issues. Yet, people are sleeping worse than ever, with problems like sleep apnea and insomnia on the rise (Dr. Breus discusses these in our interview).

Modern life, with its constant noise from cities, cars, planes, and early/late work hours, has worsened sleep quality globally.

An episode on how to sleep better at night naturally is long overdue. I reached out to Dr. Michael Breus, the sleep doctor, to educate us and provide tips on better sleep.
