This episode is about how to get better sleep and some of the strategies as part of having good sleep hygiene to promote better quality sleep. I explain why daylight is so important to regulating our sleep-wake cycle and I discuss the basics of sleep architecture (organization of our sleep cycle) and how sleep aids can affect sleep architecture and why they shouldn't be used on a long-term basis if possible. I also highlight which sleep aids are least likely to affect sleep architecture and have a better side effect profile.
