Sleep is one of our most basic human needs, and we’re constantly learning more about how it impacts human health. We’re also learning more about ways to improve it.
Light exposure is a big one. From how often and when we experience natural sunlight to the screens and other forms of artificial light we’re exposed to now more than ever, our interaction with light has a dramatic effect on our sleep quality.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, I talk to my friend Shawn Stevenson about the intersections of light exposure, temperature regulation, caffeine consumption, nutrition, and sleep.
