Can you really train yourself to survive on less sleep? Get ready to shatter some long-held myths about sleep that could be undermining your health and well-being! I, Roger Sutherland, am here to set the record straight and provide you with evidence-based strategies to improve your sleep quality and overall health. In this eye-opening episode of A Healthy Shift, we expose the misleading advice often propagated by fitness influencers and highlight the paramount importance of sleep as the cornerstone of your health. You'll understand why catching up on sleep over the weekend is a myth and how maintaining a regular sleep routine can help regulate your circadian rhythms, helping you avoid the detrimental effects of sleep debt.

Discover why waking up during the night isn't necessarily a problem if you can quickly fall back asleep and learn the truth about sleep needs as you age—spoiler alert: older adults need just as much sleep as younger ones! We also delve into the risks of relying on sleep aids and why good sleep hygiene is essential for better rest. Plus, find out why a good night's sleep doesn’t completely eliminate daytime sleepiness and uncover practical tips like short naps or walks to manage those natural energy dips. This episode is packed with practical advice and debunks some of the most pervasive sleep myths out there, all aimed at helping shift workers like you thrive in demanding work environments.
