Radio Silence

It has been way too long since my last blog post.  I needed a break from blogging. In addition, my work and travel schedule was nuts.  I hope to post at least one blog per week going forward.  These posts will be focused on health, wellness, and fitness topics.

So until then,

More on sleep

I know, I have been a tad overboard on posting articles about sleep.  I do this, as I do not believe the mainstream recognizes just how important sleep is. So here we go.

It is not uncommon for athletes to experience poor sleep quality

The below Finish study was based on tracking the sleep quality of 107 professional athletes.  I highly encourage everyone, athlete or not, to get a better handle on the quantity and quality of their sleep.

There are lots of sleep trackers on the market such as the wearables made by Fitbit, Withings, and Jawbone.  There are also bed-based systems such as Beddit and Eight.  My current favorite due to the form factor, accuracy, and the meaningfulness of the feedback is the Oura Ring.

Sleep disorders common in athletes, but easily fixable

So start tracking.  Your health with thank you.


Enjoy!

It is OK to kick off your shoes and relax

We live in exciting times with exponential technology advances.  The downside is we are inundated with digital content which floods our senses and often revs up our fight or flight response (aka spikes your cortisol).  This wreaks havoc on your health and well being.  So work on taking naps, turning off your electronic devices and just relax. Relaxing is not something you should be ashamed of.

See the below article for yet another reason why you should focus more on getting high quality sleep.

In our busy world, take time to do absolutely nothing

Enjoy!
