"Can physical activity really help you sleep better and manage stress?"
In this third episode, Dr. Olli Tikkanen continues the conversation with sleep researcher Jin Wen, exploring how physical activity interacts with sleep and stress. Jin discusses how daily movement can improve sleep quality and reduce stress, but it’s not just about burning energy. She shares insights from research showing that regular physical activity helps maintain homeostasis, which can lead to better sleep and lower stress levels.
Jin also introduces the SATED model, which evaluates different aspects of sleep, including satisfaction, alertness, timing, and duration. This holistic approach helps people understand how sleep quality goes beyond just getting enough hours of rest. Additionally, Jin highlights a growing issue in modern life - revenge sleep procrastination, where people sacrifice sleep to reclaim personal time, potentially affecting both their sleep and long-term health. If you want to learn how physical activity, sleep, and stress are interconnected, this episode is filled with practical insights and research findings.
