Dr Michael Breus: Why You Wake Up at 3am (And What To Do About It)

Are you waking up in the middle of the night and unable to fall back asleep… no matter how tired you are?

In this episode of A Life of Greatness, Sarah Grynberg sits down with renowned sleep expert and sleep psychologist Dr Michael Breus to unpack the science, psychology, and hidden habits that are quietly destroying your sleep.

From anxiety and racing thoughts to hormones, heart rate, and even your genetics, this conversation reveals why so many of us struggle to get quality rest… and what we can actually do about it.

Dr Breus shares practical, science-backed tools to help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and finally wake up feeling restored. This is not about rigid rules or unrealistic routines… it’s about understanding your body and working with it.

Because when you improve your sleep… you improve your entire life.

You’ll learn:

Why anxiety is the #1 reason you can’t sleep
The exact reason you wake up in the middle of the night
How to lower your heart rate to fall asleep faster
The truth about supplements like magnesium
Why sleep quality matters more than sleep quantity

Sleep isn’t a luxury… it’s the foundation of everything.

And when you start to understand your body… you stop fighting it, and start living better.
