Episode Highlights: What is the sleep-exercise connection? When is the best time to exercise to help ensure quality and duration of sleep? How does exercise help us sleep better? How much exercise do we need for better sleep? Quotes: “The biggest tip I can give you is to get moving.” “As little as 10 minutes of aerobic exercise…can dramatically improve the quality of sleep…especially when this is done on a regular basis.” “We know that physical activity actually can improve the quality of sleep as well as the duration of sleep that we get.” “Exercising…earlier in the day, basically, can help reset our sleep/wake cycles.” “Listen to your body.” “Just the act of focusing on the exercise that I’m doing helps me decompress and burn off that energy, burn off that steam.” “Warm bath, cool room.” “Everybody is going to react differently, but we do know that you have to find what works for you, for your body, how you react.” “You can see an immediate benefit in just getting better quality sleep.” Links: Dassani Dentistry homepage: https://www.dassanidentistry.com Podigy homepage: https://podigy.co/
