The Science & Practice of Perfecting Your Sleep | Dr. Matt Walker

We discuss the biology of sleep, including its various stages and what specifically happens to those stages when we don't get enough sleep. We also discuss the effects of sunlight, caffeine, alcohol, naps, hormones, exercise, marijuana, sexual activity, and various supplements on sleep. The episode consists of both basic science information and many science-supported actionable tools. Read the full show notes for this episode at hubermanlab.com.
