This week I had the pleasure of interviewing sleep-expert Dr. Elie Gottlieb all about sleep health, sleep habits, and sleep optimization.
Dr. Elie Gottlieb is a sleep neuroscientist with over 10 years of sleep, circadian rhythm, and neuroscience research experience. In this episode we discuss all the basics of sleep including circadian rhytms, the different stages of sleep, how you can find your sleep chronotype, and delve into the relationship between sleep and mental health, journaling, rituals, and more.
