55 Min Physiology: 10 Environment Factors that Impact Your Sleep

Sleep is the single greatest lever you have for short-term performance and long-term health. And yet despite massive global spending on sleep products and solutions, we are collectively getting worse at it.

In this episode, I break down 10 specific environmental factors inside your bedroom that are undermining your sleep. Modern life has quietly made this harder than it has ever been. More light pollution, more noise, more schedules that cross time zones, and most of the standard advice does not account for that reality.

For each factor I explain what it is, why it affects sleep physiologically, and what you can actually do about it at every budget level. Everything here comes from the scientific literature and from direct application with clients at Absolute Rest. There is something actionable in this episode for everyone regardless of where you are starting from.
