Apr 08, 2025
Life doesn’t always allow for the “perfect” night’s sleep—but that doesn’t mean good rest is out of reach.
In Episode 9 of Master Stress with Dr. S, we explore real-world sleep strategies designed for the unpredictable, messy reality of life. Whether you’re a shift worker, a new parent, or simply stretched too thin, this episode will help you sleep smarter—not harder.
In this episode, we explore:
✔️ How to stop chasing perfect sleep—and what to aim for instead.
✔️ The power of light exposure, nutrition, and planning for better rest.
✔️ Techniques to manage nighttime anxiety.
✔️ The role of naps, yoga nidra, and non-sleep deep rest.
✔️ Why trusting your body’s wisdom is the real game-changer.
This episode is about working with your body, not against it. With a few intentional tweaks and the right mindset, you can make rest a reliable part of your routine—even when life gets in the way.

Your body is wise—it knows how to adapt, recover, and reset, even when life throws curveballs. You don’t need perfect conditions to rest well. You just need a plan that works for your reality.
Sleep isn’t about perfection—it’s about consistency, compassion, and trust in your body’s natural rhythms.
