Achieving peak performance in our daily lives is a common goal, and one often overlooked aspect that can significantly impact our performance is sleep. In this episode, we hear from Riley Jarvis,a sleep expert at The Sleep Consultant. He uncovers actionable tips for optimizing sleep and overall well-being. During a night's sleep, the body undergoes distinct phases, two of which play crucial roles in rejuvenation – REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep and deep sleep. REM sleep, characterized by vivid dreams and rapid eye movements, is associated with memory consolidation, emotional regulation, and learning. It stimulates creativity and problem-solving, making it an essential component of cognitive function. On the other hand, deep sleep, also known as slow-wave sleep, is the time when the body experiences physical restoration. It promotes muscle recovery, immune system strengthening, and the release of growth hormones. Both REM and deep sleep are integral for overall well-being, and understanding their significance contributes to developing effective sleep strategies for optimal health and performance.   Episode Highlights: Factors that Affect Your Sleep Performance.
