I wish every human being could set aside 3 hours of their life to listen, really LISTEN, to what Dr. Walker is saying, because I don't know how else a true cultural paradigm shift would ever happen to allow for a world that makes room for proper sleep.

@@TheAbsoluteSir softest spot, I would say, only consisted of dirt, grass, leaves, and maybe simple fabrics but those things all together are more firm than any bed and healthier compared to a bed today. Bed’s today can be complicated. Not to mention the amount of Volatile organic compounds, toxic compounds, molds and particles beds release/carry, definitely don’t help with our health or sleep. The more we deviate from our ancestors the sicker we get, but avoiding to take a b12 pill or supplements because “our ancestors didn’t do that” is really unnecessary and wouldn’t improve anyone’s quality of health to a significant degree so I definitely agree with that. People who take ancestral lifestyles to heart need to take into consideration today’s problems and think logically. We need a b12 pill, but we don’t necessarily need a mattress

But people dying of infections in the past, and the level of uncomfortableness in a tent aren’t quite arguments. Japan still sleeps on floor beds, as a lot of other people around the world. A lot of things have changed and this may be one of them so I find that to be a really interesting question. People behave differently because the environment was completely different. Think about electricity. Maybe they had quite limited options to entertain themselves during the night. Think about having to be physical as hell all day long catering for animals, working the land, doing laundry by hand and so on. Maybe if we had to live like this, the softness and fluffiness of the mattress would be the last thing on our mind. Still, people tried to make themselves comfortable for millennia using whatever materials they could get from their surroundings, and a lot of them adapted to conditions that ma seem completely improper to us today.

Since I eliminated it (bc i started getting pms for the 1st time in my life and caffeine was the only thing I changed in my diet) Within 2 days off It I noticed more clarity/clear mind, my body felt really clean again, and my sleep depth (stages 3-4) has been getting better & i’m waking up less overnight and able to fall back to sleep right away, And I have an underlying feeling of well-being at all times when I tune in to myself which I never noticed when I had caffeine daily!

More therapists are being trained on this because such a high percentage of people have crappy sleep, which is bad news for mental health.

It is indeed a true fact, I've solved many problems in my life, and remembered deep things, upon waking up in the middle of the night in my sleep with a solution.

I stayed up for 4 days on speed once, makes me cringe when I think about it. Doing 2 or 3 days was a normal occurence. I probably did a lot of permanent damage with drugs back then.

This changed my life! More importantly it has changed how I am setting “bedtimes” for my youngest son (age 9) and how I I can help my oldest juggle his heavy schedule. I will never wake him up again unless he requests it!

I find it somewhat disturbing. A grim reflection of the state of the world. That channels like this, devoted to improving health and self improvement barely have half a million subscribers, while channels with kids opening presents get millions upon millions of subscribers. Among other pointless channels that cater to either consumerism, short attention spans, or both. Channels like this one should be in their place. I think this is a cause of most of the social and cultural degradation of our societies. Rather than "What can I do to enrich my life?" people instead ask "What can this person do for me?" TL;DR: This channel and channels like it are severely underrated

My problem is that I wake up once or twice a night. I still dream, and I feel good when I wake up, but I can’t stay asleep for the whole 7.5 hours I am asleep. I drink a lot of water during the day, and vape, but after trying numerous things, I still can’t just stay asleep. Hoping that getting my deviated septum helps with this. I’ll update this post if it does after my surgery in a month for anyone who is in the same boat.

Most subjects like this on Rich's channel are extremely helpful and good for me. All the exercise ones I don't do because I work on my feet all day, too tired at the end of the day for it, or so I think. But this one has made me want to try going to bed an hour earlier. I've always complained about sleep taking so much time, but lately I've been shaving off too much sleep. Being new to veganism, I frequently default to the idea it's my diet making me tired, but then I remind myself... I only got 5 hours of sleep last night, and the night before, and the night before, and the night before that. To where I should've gotten 32 hours of sleep, but only got 20 in the last 4 days. Can't be good for me. I'm going to do my best to try getting more sleep, and see how it benefits me. Next attempt to "radically" change my life initiated. Last attempt was going vegan. 1 year ago. And I still am. Maybe 1 year from now I'll be getting 8 hours every night. EDIT: Thanks Rich Roll for this video. I like these self-improvement and health related videos a lot

Finally, a discussion with Dr. Matthew Walker that lasted longer than an hour. My thanks to Rich Roll for providing more time (~3hrs) to fully expand on all the important topics of sleep. BTW - I also have been wearing/using an Oura Ring (2nd Gen) for about 2 years and I purchased Dr. Walker's Book; "Why We Sleep" one year ago. His book is now my 'go-to' reference manual on sleep. Using the information in this book, in conjunction with the sleep metrics from the Oura Ring, I have been able to keep a consistent nightly sleep schedule and limit fragmented sleep durations resulting in better health and well being . Thank you both for all your hard work. RL

I loved this. Applying this to myself- the problem of lack of sleep for people working in medicine is huge... 80 hour work week is considered a softer version of training and it is beyond ridiculous when at the same time you know just how detrimental that tempo is. Hopefully this gets addressed and resolved in the near future. EDIT: 1:29:00 Sleep, nutrition, exercise, interpersonal relationships, cognitive exercise, spf and many other crucial preventative measures and lifestyle and environment determinants are virtually unmentioned throughout med school curriculum.

Ones daily activities, how we carry ourselves within our emotions, indeed will be the ultimate life-driver. At the wheel seems to be an endless list of variables. Sleep quality does not equate to life quality...nope, just the opposite. If your looking for waking feeling better rested, begin by creating a good day. Surprisingly no one breathed an ounce of chat regarding the benefit of pre-sleep -prep. My treasures are a fair amount of evening exertion. A spry walk, a rich conversation( maybe one by Rich), ones own lovemaking or with another, fresh air, & a real treasure for me has been to regularly give attention to what was special about the day & what I feel particularly fortunate for. Upon waking I give a little testimony of murmured thanks for a super deep sleep, fascinating dreams, my comfortable bed, the nights devine fresh air, the quiet & the cozy beautiful space Im awaking in. Giving appreciative thanks has consistently led to a richer life overall

I have suffered with insomnia all my life which has worsened since the menopause. I do wonder if my body knows how to sleep & if this could be inherited as my mum is also a long time sufferia. Obviously I've tried many things. I seem to sleep slightly better around 4 days in a month compared to the other days which are really disturbed I'm just wide awake. I've never once slept through the night perhaps only when I was a baby but certainly not as a young child. I am now 59 . I really can feel a difference when I've slept even slightly better the following morning , every part of me feels lighter including my mood. I follow a good sleep hygiene routine. As it's Sunday and mother's Day in the UK I slept in this morning listening to this talk, the man's voice helped me drift back into a light sleep. This was an exceptional, interesting and knowledgeable conversation 👍🏼

Dr Walker is right that people who long have had bad sleep (any or all of the 4 pillars he has talked about) don’t realize the impact that bad sleep has had on them until they actually get good sleep. The impact on mood and energy is WOW.
