Welcome, Habit Thrivers, to the first episode of our October Sleep Series! On Episode #172 this week, we are kicking things off by diving into the “why” behind sleep: � Why is it gold for our well-being in our “Me Now” years? � Why does sleep feel more challenging in these “Me Now” years? � Why do we sometimes sidestep it … even when we know better? We explore: ✅How sleep affects your brain, body, and mood ✅The real reasons it gets trickier with age (hello hormones, stress, and yes—our beloved pets) ✅What Ayurveda calls a “crime against wisdom” (pragya-aparadha) and how it relates to our modern sleep habits Plus, I’m suggesting one thing to think about and a small shift to try this week. Next week: We move from the why into the how —simple, supportive ways to improve your sleep routine. Until then, rest well!
