In this episode, Devin talks about the importance of high-quality sleep and how it relates to optimal health, happiness, and productivity. In a culture that has put so much focus on the hustle and grind of work, sleep is often something that is put on the back burner and is seen as a sign of weakness. However, as both Taylor and Devin continue their conversation, they explain that– not only should sleep be prioritized, but it is vital for our physical and mental well being.

Taylor and Devin then discuss some hacks to optimize your sleep. Keeping in mind that everyone’s body is different, Devin encourages you to experiment what sleep hacks work best for you: including lowering your body temperature, sunlight exposure to sync with our circadian rhythm, magnesium supplementation, and reducing EMF exposure. As the episode winds down, Devin signs off with tips on breaking your reliance on coffee and his #1 suggestion to optimize your sleep.
