It blew my mind when you said 7-9 hours of uninterrupted sleep. I usually have waking periods of 3-5 times a night and get next to no deep sleep. I will try the consistent sleep and wake times to see if that helps

@GinaK687 4 месяца назад

When he said that, I did a double take too, lol, but I *think* he means that it’s sleep that isn’t interrupted by *outside* sources because here’s no way any adult passes out perfectly and sleeps thru the night like a kid! lol Natural wake-ups are totally normal; he was talking about that, (that it’s normal to wake up a couple times naturally), in one of his last videos 👍🏼

I was “born” a deep sleeper. I used to be able to sleep 8-10 hours uninterrupted, through a dang earthquake-until the pandemic. Now, the last 4 years I can hear a pin drop in my sleep. Like so many others I’m experiencing insomnia and fragmented sleep for the first time due to lingering, deep seated psychological stress of the pandemic. I’m trying everything I can to help but haven’t found something that works consistently. So I think you can be “born” a deep sleeper and involuntarily become a light sleeper

You are the BEST. I have gotten so much help from watching you. I use a fan for the sound to block sounds from our very quiet house. It helps so much.

Thanks Dr. B! Dolphin here 🙋🏻‍♀️🐬White noise and a consistent sleep schedule helps me a LOT. I also box breathe and I swear it works almost every night to get me to sleep quickly!

what is box sleep?

@GinaK687 4 месяца назад

@@victoriaquezadaSo I actually discovered it thru one of his recent videos! It’s breathing in calmly for 4 seconds, and exhaling for 4 seconds. It distracts the brain (and slows heart rate) to where it helps me fall asleep faster so I’m not thinking about anything and everything.

@duckinabowtiegaming5318 4 месяца назад

Hey sleep doc can you make a video on how to sleep when you're stressed. I can't fall asleep because stressful thoughts keep me up at night.

@gri3ver146 4 месяца назад

Ive not been able to sleep longer then 4 hours for about 10 years. I have tried everything. It has destroyed my mental health, close to giving up

@brianw.5230 4 месяца назад

Meditate in bed instead of sleeping. It's almost as good. God Bless.

@msdawntreader 4 месяца назад

I sympathize. Also, pray and journal. Best to you.

Hi, Doc Sleep!! Being a HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) makes me a light sleeper, is there any recommendation as I doubt I can sleep all the way through the night?

@geoffwitt4227 4 месяца назад

How are people to find a sleep doctor locally? There is no specialty? Or is there?

I'm highly disappointed on your website. I created a profile after I took the test. It won't let me login. I clicked on reset password. I got an email with a link to reset. Did so. I still can't login, so ya know... it's not worth my time.

I wish there was something like ear plugs that didn't make me feel so ill. I hate the feeling of them in my ears. It makes my whole head feel "full" and I simply hear my heartbeat instead!
