Description
I seriously cannot wait to dive into this episode because we’re going deep on a topic near and dear to every mom’s heart (and sanity)… how to get better sleep!
Whether it’s due to kids, working late, electronics addiction, or you plain just can’t sleep… too many of us are skipping precious hours of shut-eye. This impacts health more than we realize.
Today I’m here with Harpreet Rai, CEO of Oura Health, the company that makes Oura Ring, the sleep and activity tracker that I have been using to track the quality of my sleep as well as fertility markers. He has some fascinating facts to share about how our bodies function during sleep, why we need it so much, and natural ways to solve sleep problems.
Episode Highlights: Oura Ring
why shift work is considered a carcinogen
the real problems that happen when you don’t sleep
sneaky little habits that rob us of the quality sleep we need
what the brain and body do while sleeping (it’s fascinating!)
why you feel extra groggy some mornings
what the Oura Ring can do to track heart rate variability and improve your sleep patterns
and more!

19: The Real Causes of Tooth Decay: I’ve been fascinated by oral health and it’s connection to whole-body health for a long time. I’ve looked for answers to questions like “Can teeth heal” and “What really causes tooth decay” and this podcast episode addresses those same questions. What Really Causes Tooth Decay?
