Most people wouldn't mind feeling a little better, or having more energy throughout the day. Most people also at least partially recognize that getting good sleep is an important piece of that puzzle.
What most people don’t recognize is that sleep is only half of the story.
As humans, we have a “day mode” where we activate and energize, digest our food, and live our lives. Cortisol is the hormone that this most directly relates to.
We then have a “night mode” where we rest, restore, and heal. Melatonin is the boss hormone in this arena.
The Problem is…99% are very “day mode” dominant. Our technology, artificial lights, stress, eating timing and more all play into this equation.
The result? “Night mode” and melatonin get pushed to the side. So even people who do feel like they get enough sleep often wake up feeling unrested and often have chronic, nagging health issues that come along for the ride.
If you want some more info about how this works and what to do about it, check out this episode of the Quantum Chiropractor podcast.
