Episode 65 - Sleep Is A Skill with Mollie McGlocklin
Since when did sleep become a skill? It’s when man’s physiology and the environment turned sleep into a privilege over necessity! Men in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond have so much going for their lives, their careers, and their families, that sleep has slowly taken a backseat. It’s only when health starts to decline that suddenly, a shift is needed to fine-tune this skill and re-establish the key to recovery. Mollie McGlocklin, the creator and lead behavioral change coach for Sleep Is A Skill, joins Funk in this episode to teach the skill of deep sleep and how to rewire the behaviors and lifestyles of today that are causing sleep disturbances. “Circadian rhythm can become a superpower if we lean into this.
