There's one thing that I can tell people to get their sleep back on track. It's actually to maintain a stable wake time seven days a week. That is really critical for setting your circadian rhythm and making things more predictable for your body.

I feel like, since I've been doing this type of work, you know, some of the collective consciousness around sleep and its importance for health and wellbeing has changed. There has been a shift. And I think a lot of it comes from kind of hearing it in the media and kind of what we're learning in sleep science.

But despite that, there's still a dramatically high number of individuals that are getting insufficient amounts of sleep and struggle with their sleep. And so it makes me think that maybe there are things that are getting in the way, barriers, or kind of the way that we live our lives.

But also, I think that there may be some gaps in our knowledge about what to do when we're not able to sleep well. That kind of perpetuates these chronic problems of insomnia or insufficient sleeping.

Yeah, I mean, the literature certainly varies. But, you know, when we think about insomnia symptoms, so that's sleep disturbances, problems in falling asleep or staying asleep or waking up too early, you know, that seems to range, you know, a little bit above, you know, 30 to 40 percent of the population in the United States reports insomnia symptoms.

And so, you know, that's nearly 100 million people in the U.S. When people have trouble sleeping,

Yeah, that's a really great question. The most common model for insomnia is called the 3P model. And so each P stands for a different part of the thing that leads to insomnia. And so there's the predisposition, right? There are some people that are kind of anxious folks and are more likely to have difficulty falling asleep.
