2 Introduction We live overcommitted, over stimulated lifestyles with not enough down tome for sleep and rejuvenation and it is killing us! Insomnia is pervasive and people are exhausted most of the time. Most people believe that sleep is just a passive and dormant part of our daily lives, but recent research is waking us up to what is really going on in our bodies. We now know that our brains are very active during sleep and it influences our daily functioning and our physical and mental health in numerous ways. Did you know The amount of sleep you get is instrumental in quality of life issues such as: Cell renewal and rejuvenation Management of stress hormones Gut health Weight gain Chronic disease development Cognitive functioning Safety This all leads many to seek medical care and often start relying on drugs to get and stay asleep, setting them up for dependence and negative side effects. Self care is the answer! There is a better way to approach sleep issues and it involves self responsibility and self-care practices Following the 6 Dimentional Wellness Model from the National Wellness Institute this session will outline multiple strategies that can be implemented to get a good night s sleep so you can rely less on drugs and more on wellness as your solution. 2
3 How to know sleep is a problem for you Rule of 3 Dr. Michael Breus, the Sleep Doctor ` 3 nights per week trouble falling or staying asleep 30 + minutes/night stay awake before sleeping 3 weeks all of this lasts 3 weeks in a row 10 Reasons Why We Need Sleep 1. Survival 2. Healthy immune system 3. Improved memory, concentration, physical performance 4. Neuron repair (gives brain a chance to exercise important neuronal connections that might otherwise deteriorate from lack of activity) 5. Decreases cortisol levels 6. Releases growth hormone in children and young adults 7. Increases cell renewal and regeneration at night, peaks at 2am 8. Decreases breakdown of protein 9. Decreases weight gain 10. Increases emotional and social functioning What leads to sleep CIRCADIAN RHYTHM - Biological clock adults' strongest sleep drive occurs between 2:00-4:00 am and in afternoon between 1:00-3:00 pm Melatonin is one of the biggest influencers Production of Melatonin reduces after age
4 Stages of Sleep Stage I 5-10 mins Light sleep Between awake and sleep Feel like you re falling HYPNIC MYOCLONIA muscles contract, you jump suddenly Stage 2 50% Onset of sleep Become disengaged from surroundings Breathing and heart rate slow and regular Decrease body temp Stages of Sleep Stages 3 & 4 30% Slow wave sleep, delta sleep, beauty sleep Deepest and most restorative sleep Decreased BP Slower breathing Muscles relaxed Increased blood supply to tissues Tissue growth and repair occurs (muscle, bone) Maintains collagen matrix for improved appearance and youthfulness Energy is restored Growth hormone released for growth and muscle development Stages of Sleep Stage 5 20% REM sleep Rapid Eye Movement Eyes dart back and forth Muscles turned off Body becomes relaxed Where dreams occur First occurs 90 mins after falling asleep Then occurs every 90 mins, getting longer into the night Provides energy to the brain and body Brain is more active and requires more blood flow Supports daytime performance Stimulates brain regions used in learning Increases production of proteins 4
5 Causes of Insomnia (30% of population) Increased cortisol Overcommitted, over-stimulated, not enough down time Anxiety and depression Wired and Tired mentally overstimulated, physically exhausted Can t stop thinking bad things will happen Can t relax and sleep Diet too much high GI, sugar, gluten at breakfast Leaky gut leads to inflammation EMF exposure restless, can t sleep well, wake up tired, groggy, hung over I can t fall asleep I can t stay asleep I wake up too early Anxiety Depression Pain Medications Stress Environment Types of Insomnia Health Effects of Lack of Sleep Weight Gain Risk of Type II Diabetes Increase Cortisol Levels Decrease Melatonin Levels Increase Gut Inflammation Adrenal Fatigue Memory Loss 5
6 Risk of Increased Cortisol Levels (stress hormone) Stimulates sympathetic nervous system fight or flight Decreases parasympathetic nervous system relaxation Wired and Tired can t relax and sleep Feel anxious, unsettled, fatigued, unmotivated Tells body to hold onto fat Side effect from leaky gut and inflammation Affects hormones, digestion, immunity, brain chemicals Affects blood pressure, circulation, lungs, muscles, bones, skin, hair Risk of Type II Diabetes from Sleep Deprivation cortisol Increases hunger Increased consumption of carb-dense, sweet, salty foods Glucose tolerance impaired (how readily your body recognizes glucose in your blood and pulls it into your cells for energy) Increased inflammation Decreased immunity Risk of Weight Gain from Sleep Deprivation Increased CORTISOL stress hormone that stores fat Increased late night snacking because you are awake more Increased cravings for carb snacks Decreased portion control - you eat bigger portions Increased GHERLIN production hormone stimulates appetite Decreased LEPTIN production - hormone suppresses appetite Decrease INSULIN s ability to transport sugar to cells stores sugar as fat 6
7 Sleep Deprivation Decreases Melatonin Production Sleep hormone made by pineal gland in brain Starts releasing when it gets dark Falls back to daytime levels when it gets light out Levels drop as you age 1974 Discovery 70% melatonin produced in gut Gut contains 400x more melatonin than pineal gland Highest levels in rectum and colon Dependent on food intake, digestion, not light Regulates motility of lower gut Promising future drug to treat IBS, inflammation, possibly GI cancer Sleep Deprivation Increases Gut Inflammation Exacerbates colon inflammation and vice versa More research needed on the role of sleep in the health of the microbiome Long Term Sleep Deprivation leads to Memory Loss 7
