Michael Breus

Whether you are a morning person or someone that snoozes multiple times before waking, how you sleep is all due to genetics. Dr. Michael Breus is a clinical psychologist and expert in sleep and insomnia. Today, he discusses the four chronotypes –  the types of sleepers. Instead of early bird or night owl, are you a lion, wolf, bear, or dolphin? Each type has an optimal time for doing everything from going to bed and drinking coffee, to having sex and making decisions.  He also discusses the best and worst sleeping positions, managing insomnia, how temperature affects sleep, and the effects of caffeine, alcohol, and cannabis. As well as sleep apnea, new medical devices, and other products to help you get the best night’s rest.  Learn more about Dr. Breus’ research on sleep and take the quiz to find out what chronotype you are at thesleepdoctor.com.

Does grief affect sleep? Will I ever sleep again? What is normal sleep? How can I sleep naturally? Why is it so hard to sleep since they died? How do I know if I am sleeping too much?  What is a sleep chronotype? In this episode, we get a very special visit from Dr. Michael Breus a.k.a. The Sleep Doctor. For many of us, finding time to rest and getting quality sleep becomes an overwhelming concern during a life transition or while grieving the loss of a loved one. Today we talk all things sleep with the Doctor who knows it best. "Quality sleep is critical to your physical and mental health. Your body and mind essentially recharge while you sleep, allowing you to wake up feeling refreshed and alert in the morning. This is why not getting enough sleep can lead to sluggishness, trouble concentrating, low mood, and other negative outcomes. Current guidelines recommend seven to eight hours of nightly sleep for adults, but surveys suggest more than one-third of adults in the U.S. don’t reach this benchmark on a regular basis." - The Sleep Doctor Dr. Michael J.

He is a diplomate of the American Board of Sleep Medicine and a fellow of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
