Description

In this episode, Emily and Han discuss the key sleep disrupters in recovery.

These include:

Hunger - which does not discriminate between night and daytime

Exercise addiction / productivity drive  - letting yourself sleep enough is often as tightly bound up with self-punishing defaults as letting yourself eating enough

Heightened anxiety and stress - from the recovery process

Physical effects of being out of energy balance

Digestive problems

Ineffective temperature regulation  

Frequent urination 

Hormonal imbalance 

Meta-stress (stress about the health effects of poor sleep)
