Controversial Thoughts: My Nighttime Routine

Paul Saladino MD podcast - A podcast by Paul Saladino, MD

Sleep is business. Plain and simple. Other than optimizing my food, there is nothing I have found to be more beneficial to my performance every day than optimizing my sleep. This means I don't mess around with these tenets... Light on my skin and eyes and grounding (usually through surfing) first thing in the am... I don't wear sunglasses, ever. I also don't wear contacts in my eyes during the day. 10 hour feeding window, strictly adhered to. First bite of food 630am, last bite at 430pm. You know what I eat: #Animalbased Red light in the house at night, all of them. Yes I am a lizard. All devices red screens after dark (Iris, etc). Firelight if I can. No electronics 1 hour before bed. Read a book, meditate, etc.. I do not watch TV. Ever. Cool dark room, cooling pad on bed, consistent bedtime (845-915pm). What does your nighttime routine look like? #theremembering
