Welcome to the Other Side

Are you having trouble sleeping?

Whether you find it hard to fall asleep, with your mind spinning about co-parenting decisions, or wake up at 3 am and can’t fall back asleep– This episode is for you!

Martha Lewis is a sleep consultant for people who have tried EVERYTHING and still can't sleep.

As a certified sleep expert and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition practitioner, she addresses both body and mind with stress resilience techniques and testing for hidden health issues to get to the root cause of her clients’ insomnia.

She goes beyond the basic sleep advice you read about everywhere else and addresses what’s happening in the body that causes insomnia

We cover:

• Using journaling before bed to empty your mind

• Why high cortisol feels good to us but has negative sleep impacts

• 3 ways to lower the level in your “stress bucket”

• Comparing modern stress to what stress was like 150 years ago

• Why that 3am wake-up could be related to a nocturnal parasite (Yes, really!)
