We also see that we're at increased risk of hypertension, of inflammation, these diseases which help to increase risks of heart disease, of diabetes, disrupted blood sugar.

I could go on.

But I think the other aspect is cognitive function.

So we know that the brain does a huge amount of mental processing overnight.

We are consolidating memories.

We are pruning back information so that we can focus on what is most important.

So sleep is really helping us to learn and innovate.

So when we're sleep deprived, that sort of brain fog, that slowness to respond, slower reaction time, that can also have knock-on effects and increased risk of accidents and things like that.

So we've got very acute effects and also more chronic long-term effects on health.

Let's keep it simple.

Start first thing in the morning.

Wake up at the same time as often as you can.

So set your alarm for the same time each day.

When you start to do that for a week or two, you'll find that you don't need the alarm anymore.

But try and aim for consistent wake up time.

Aim to get some natural light, ideally within the first hour after waking.

That's going to kickstart your circadian rhythm for the day.

Tell the clock that it's wake up time.

And the advantage of doing that is that if you get this bright light in the morning, it's going to banish the melatonin.

So you're going to feel more alert.
