How to Get More Deep Sleep!

[@HealthCoachKait]

Do you think you’re getting enough deep sleep?

[@claudia5908]

Hi Kait! Yes, I do get at least 8 hours of sleep. Sometimes 7 or 9 hours.

[@mikebip8249]

@@claudia5908 Unfortunately, not so much. I have recently stopped all caffeine after 12 noon. Hopefully, that will help.

[@mollytheda9273]

Sometimes.

I suffered 6 Years Chronic insomnia due to Nicotine i was a hard smoker and a hard gadget user. So yeah but since i quit, smoking (went cold turkey) i started sleeping so good and as early as 9-10Pm at night it's been 1 year and 4 month i drink coffee too between 4-5pm with smokes so it was such a really bad habit i was always angry and irritated i went through depressions as well- i gained so much weight my highest was 75KG my goodness! Now I'm about 58-60kg thank God I was able to get rid of it I'm now 20 Years Old. 🙏🏼🤗

[@jyyy8247]

Half the information is common sense, the other half is sponsored/marketing products with barely any science based explanation. Supplements like Inotisol definitely require consulting with an expert first, and you lost me at the link to the glasses.

[@jasonvoorheestheslumpgod]

Sounds like you need more deep sleep grouchy.

[@Jsummz1]

Good video. Ill add a few things. Light intensity is just as important as blue blockers. If you have bright non blue light, this is problematic as well. You also want to have all lights below eye level if you have any on. The retina sensors are scanning upward for light. You also do not want ANY blue leds in your room. Use dim red lights if night lights are needed. Stress management is key for good sleep. If cortisol is elevated, melatonin isn't released so make sure you have a proper wind down period. Do not eat 3 hours before bed as you won't get into deep sleep because the liver active and the body temp and heart rate will stay elevated. You want a COOL room. A key factor for falling asleep is the body needs to drop temperature. :)

[@jaypalnitkar4400]

Thanks Jordan. Very useful tips

[@stevec3872]

As a young man my dr. diagnosed me with TB-Tiny Bladder and I sleep in 2 hour blocks, not long but I do remember dreaming each time before I awake so I must be in REM sleep. Fortunately I'm able to fall back asleep quickly.

[@beardumaw24]

Good info, I've been having uneasy sleep, I started setting out in the sun for 30 minutes in the morning while drinking my coffee and it did indeed help my sleep! I started doing this about a year ago. thanks for the tips!

[@HealthCoachKait]

YES! So happy to hear that!

[@octoowen1234]

you shouldn’t drink coffee it isn’t good for your natural energy levels and ruins sleep patterns

Deep sleep is still something I know I need. I will definitely keep these tips in mind. Thanks, great video.

What worked fr me: 1. Sleep early, aim fr 8-9hrs of sleep(5-6 sleep cycles). 2. Eat two hours befre sleep. 3. Never oversleep, wake up at at the same time. 4. Don't nap longer than 30min 5. Sunlight befre 10am helps set ur circadian rythym. 6. Morning exercise helps. 7. Wind down 1 hr befre ur target sleep time & dim ur lights if ur reading. 8. Blue light is ur ememy. 9. If ur still up, ur cortisol levels ar to blame, personally Ashwagandha(adaptogen) helped me manage my stress. 10. Last but not least, consistency is important! Hope this helps you!

[@purplecatz6785]

Ugh!!! I can never sleep passed 2am no matter how early I go to bed. I usually try to get in the bed at 930pm. But I’m always back up around 2-230am. 😔

[@HealthCoachKait]

What’s your daytime routine like? Getting enough natural light?

[@pjaworek6793]

Sounds like low sws/deep sleep. The more sws, the more comfortable sleeping is and the longer you can sleep.

[@flamebilyue8742]

Thank you. I'm improving. But still want more deep sleep. I have a near life time struggle with scoliosis plus the 13 vertebre spinal "experts" deemed necessary when I was only 13 years old. However, studies have suggested that people like me also have serotonin Imbalance. I'm still hopeful to get better sleep and less /no pain.

[@coryshook7648]

The alcohol really affects me and watching KZbin on my phone at night does not help either and unfortunately I’m addicted to it and I noticed I don’t sleep real deeply until close to morning and if I have to get up early in a wreck.

[@johngoodhue3410]

According to my fitbit, take that as you will, on nights where I have food in my stomach, non-fasting nights, I get more deep sleep- about 15 to 20 minutes more.

[@HealthCoachKait]

Interesting! I don’t think fitbits are very accurate in this regard unfortunately 😅 Does it measure HRV?

[@johngoodhue3410]

@@HealthCoachKait yes. I'm waiting to hear some more reviews on the New oura ring before I purchase it. Gotten a few mixed ones, and I'm just not ready to buy just yet.

@@johngoodhue3410 oh if it has HRV it could be pretty accurate! I have actually been meaning to do a review video on the new Oura (been using it since it released) but keep pushing it back. Maybe I will film that next week!

[@HealthCoachKait]

@@johngoodhue3410 very inetresting about deep sleep when you're not fasting though. Something I have noticed consistently after tracking my sleep for years is if I eat too much in a day, or eat too close to bedtime, my HRV tanks. Haven't correlated it to deep sleep specifically though.

[@lesliesshopofcuriositieswo2092]

Thank You! I'm in bad shape. I have to get up every hour to go to the bathroom. None the less, I notice if I reach a true deep sleep, I don't have to go. I'm going try the morning walk and coffee time. I've been immobile for so long now it is hard. Thank You!

There are videos from pelvic floor therapists out there that may help you with the nighttime restroom frequency! Wishing you the best!

[@SlamJamMusic]

try stopping your water intake 2ish hours before bed (make sure youre properly hydrating throughout the day so you dont get dehydrated at night)

Is there a study showing inositol improves deep sleep? Can you link to it? A quick Google search wasn’t fruitful.

[@pjaworek6793]

Thank you! I've been scouring the net for sws/deep sleep tips since I got two 15min nights in a row and felt the worst ever. What a rabbit hole but thanks, I didn't come across inositol for this yet. I was wondering if a mild walk in the woods at sunset helps by being relaxing. Matt Walker suggests you need 1. Energy 2. Relaxation, both to get sws. Also, whatever helps remove beta plaque in your brain, helps sws which will further remove plaque.

I cannot get ANY sleep a at all. Last night I went to bed at 1030 I finally got to sleep at around 530 am and woke up at 7. This is most nights. I usually get one good night's sleep a week.

[@kitcoffey7194]

Me. what can we do?? life is torture

[@Ev-vh3pf]

I will try the Inositol. I hate not sleeping well. I don't drink and we have an awesome mattress, so that's not my issue. I've had insomnia my whole life. When I did the Self-Decode testing I found that my genetics pre-dispose me to it. I was bummed. I honestly think that 50% of getting into remission w/ my A.I. is all about sleep. It's such a vicious cycle.

[@HealthCoachKait]

Damn that is frustrating 😥 You can only do what you can with the cards you are dealt. Have you used melatonin before? You don't want to use it all the time but if you're really having trouble falling asleep it will have you out like a light.

[@MissLauraSquared]

What recommendations can you give to parents of toddlers for achieving the third sleep stage? Right now, my daughter is 2.5 years old and is nearing the end of potty training. She wakes up two times in the middle of the night each night to use the bathroom and needs help with using the potty. This means I get woken up twice every night. How do I reach the deep sleep stage with this kind of lifestyle? (I anticipate she will need my help going potty in the middle of the night for at least a couple of more years.)

[@withramya]

I have read some theories that babies are designed to wake up frequently and the sparse sleep cycle parents are on helps them make specific kind of attachment memories.

[@solarjudgement4575]

The Inositol you linked is for women. What product do you recommend for men? Or is it considered okay for men to take as well?

You did not mention Melatonin as useful sleep inducing aid. Apparently safe too.

Melatonin should only be used in rare instances (such as to readjust from jetlag). If you take it regularly your body won't produce it anymore and then you will REALLY have trouble sleeping 😥

I can say that after I stopped drinking alcohol, my sleeping was really bad after. Yes everyone says you'll have a great night sleep after you stop drinking alcohol, but i use to drink to sleep, so when I stopped all together my sleep rhythm was all fucked up. It took a loooooong time to get back to normal. Better nights of sleep then bad ones now ah days. PS: gonna implement more exercise to my daily life, i have to much Anxiety energy that i need to burn before bed .
