Fittest at 40 Series: The Art of Mastering Restorative Sleep!
Welcome back! Another Foundational Topic to consider while optimizing your day-to-day!!
Today we’re talking about possibly YOUR favorite topic, but not for my kids, and that’s SLEEP!! :)
Now we’ve discussed this before on the flagship episodes, but now we’re looking to hone-in on this topic while focusing on age as well.
Why this topic?
Soooo as we always will ask….WHHHYYYY is this topic important to talk about?!??
First! As we will discuss more, sleep can dictate EVERYTHING regarding your day-to-day!
If you sleep well, you feel refreshed, energized, ready to take on the day from the start!
Without sleep, you’re groggy, irritated, NOT sharp, NOT motivated, you often will have the feeling of defeat, etc…it’s not a good feeling!!
…and this generally doesn’t get EASIER as you age!
In this "Fittest at 40 Series" episode, we discuss a critical yet often overlooked aspect of wellness: Restorative Sleep. This episode emphasizes the increasing importance of quality sleep as one ages, exploring how it impacts everything from cognitive function and emotional well-being to overall health maintenance.
Ryan also discusses the multifaceted challenges of achieving restful sleep in later years, touching on factors like hormonal changes, health conditions, and lifestyle shifts. We’ll also discuss practical advice on enhancing sleep quality, including regular exercise, minimizing distractions, and establishing a calming bedtime routine. If you’re looking to optimize your sleep as you age, this episode is for you!
