Insomnia, the Ideal Sleep Routine & How Much You Actually Need - Don’t Sleep on Listening to This!

Insomnia, the Ideal Sleep Routine & How Much You Actually Need - Don’t Sleep on Listening to This!

Today Dr Shauna is joined by Rita Hitching - a neuroscience writer, editor and researcher with more than 20 years of experience in psychology and psychiatry research. Rita is currently researching insomnia for a PhD, and is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to sleep.


So, how much sleep do you actually need? Is it different for males vs females, and does the amount change depending on your age? What is insomnia and why do some people experience it, while others sleep soundly through the night? How can you optimise your nighttime routine to get the best sleep possible?


If you or a partner, child or friend struggle with insomnia or sleep, or simply want to understand how you can optimise your routine to sleep even better - this episode is for you!
