I do think that's somewhat variable.

Big picture, alcohol is so disruptive to sleep.

And as we get older, we tend to be less and less efficient at processing alcohol.

I know in my own life, after 35, my body was just like, what are you doing?

No, this does not work for us.

Like, I could not sleep if I had even half of a glass of wine.

Like, just not a thing for me anymore.

But what happens with alcohol is we may get that initial sedative effect and then we may drop into alcohol.

a deep sleep kind of like just drop her.

And then we wake up a few hours later, like having missed out on that great quality REM sleep.

Yeah, thank you for having me.

Honestly, I needed it.

I could not find a book out there that really spoke to me in terms of like something easy to digest that I could pick it up, get something out of it.

And I really wanted to create that.

So, yeah, the book is broken down into mind, body and spirit.

I've taken a lot of heat for some of the spirit ones from people who just wanted like just the body or just the mindset.

But I think all are really important when we're talking about how we manage our stress and anxiety.

Yeah.

So a lot of it has to do with just, you know, looking at, you know, what is stressing you out and acknowledging what you can and can't control.

I think that's a huge piece of the picture and one I've had to definitely deal with.
