I spent over a decade with a constantly shifting sleep schedule. No day was the same. It was hell, and getting that under control was so invaluable to my further recoveries. There was no trick. It was simply doing the hard thing: Wake up no matter what. Stay up. Drink lots of water. Get some sun. Don't sleep until evening. Repeat until things settle into a rhythm. Practicing good sleep hygiene is very important as well.
Many of us do get into bed and out of it without naps during the day, and we still suffer from some form of insomnia. Many of us have to. We have full te jobs.
I find solutions to problems that I cannot figure out in my sleep. I focus on it before I go to bed and I usually find my answers. We are wonderfully made.
You taught me a new word! "Glymphatic"! You make both my glymphatic AND lymphatic symptoms drain any unease with that anxiolytic voice of yours, Dr. Mraks.
These episodes about sleep are absolutely relevant to me. From all the psychological issues ive had, sleep is the ONE factor thats been the hardest to deal with. If i manage to solve this dilemma, other factors (anxiety, relationships, sunstance use, etc.) would basically resolve
She has a lot of other really good vids on everything except sonambulism and other parasomnias, although in fairness those are not in the diagnostic manual APA I don't think.
All your solutions are in this video. I've been using these tricks successfully for 20 years and been an insomniac for 33 years after a major concussion that lasted 2 years, plus hereditary, plus trauma. My only hope has been doing EVERYTHING in this video. Don't pick and choose... do it all...and avoid drugs 🎉❤ Good luck!
If you keep searching solution for insomnia than it get more worst...better keep consistency of going to bed and waking up at same time everyday no matter how good or bad or even you don't sleep...just don't think about it, the more you fear the less you sleep..the more you search solution to fix your insomnia the more worst it get...actually sleep is paradoxical...i hope it may find you helpful..
Sleep is sometimes so hard, but I sleep whenever I feel like it, if that is an possibility. This has helped me get rid of long periods of insomnia, although I dream more intensely now, it's completely worth it. Humans have slept more naturally in these intervals longer than the industrialised civilisation has lingered, so it feels more like a second nature. I just copy my cats whenever I can. 😂 It also heals my trauma more effectively! Such a good video ❤ Thanks!
WOOOOW. The best educational Sleep Sciencebased video in years on UA-cam.Dr. Tracy Broke the info into nuts and pieces so everybody can follow and within. Life changing insight. 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
This was SUPER INFORMATIVE! Thank you, Dr Tracey!! I share your videos with so many people!! Your delivery is so calming yet inspiring!! I truly appreciate you! ❤
I love how simplified and educational your videos are, more information like this should be taught to kids early on. Where did you learn your narrating voice? It's relaxing and neutral.
The length of the sleep cycle is 90-120 minutes, it depends on people and circumstances and can change over a lifetime. It's very important to finish the cycle, meaning, to wake up only after the REM phase is over. It's the natural way to wake up because after the REM phase the sleep is very light. The REM phase is very short, it's like a period at the end of a sentence. It may seem small and insignificant, but without it the sentence is unfinished. A sleep cycle that was interrupted before the REM phase was finished, doesn't count - it's the same as if you didn't sleep at all. Few people understand that. Twenty minutes power nap is a little bit different. It usually happens in daytime and serves to reset the brain and clear the way for new information. It's similar to the full sleep cycle in that that it also ends with the REM phase. Actually, the REM sleep is the whole point of the power nap. You fall asleep, you dream for a few minutes, you wake up refreshed. With age, many people develop difficulties sleeping. They cannot sleep during nighttime, or don't sleep enough, which makes them feel like zombies and have difficulties functioning in daytime. To my knowledge, a real solution to this problem does not exist. Finally, if it's bad for me to watch UA-cam videos three or four hours before bed time, what am I supposed to do? I can't really stare at the wall for three or four hours...
@calmate For the last part, you can read a book or magazine or comic, whatever you like while drinking a nice warm cup of chamomile or other non caffeinated drink k to help you wind down in preparation for sleep. Its a routine you have to build. Hope this is helpful.
Thank you so much, doctor. I have been watching all your videos, the short and long every Wednesday. I have been a big fan ever since the last 5 years when the channel is new. Thank you so much for the acknowledgement and for making me feel important and loved. ❤ Thank you very much and I love you. 🎉 cheers for spreading healing and recovery.
Dr. Tracy, I want to commend you for being so wonderful and giving us so much, I wanna give you huge credit for helping me get through some hard times and finally getting diagnosed with ADHD that I knew that I had as a child but I have very crazy parents that didn’t allow me to get treatment. It’s been three decades and just starting off a couple months ago. I’m finally getting the help that I need. I still have a long journey with your videos are so well thought out and you explain things and I appreciate you not holding back I seen so many other videos from other doctors and it feels like they’re not telling you everything Because you’re trying to buy you in. Your particular case I certainly want purchase items from your store because you’re not pushy and it feels like you generally care about all of us. You truly have such an amazing heart and a great impact in so many people’s life and more ways that you could ever imagine. Thank you for being so positive and teaching us so many things that are super important to our body in our mind.❤
Who lives in the unsafe environment I have not really slept in two and a half years so I had to put my finger on my video screen to speed up and I appreciate the informative knowledge she shared.
Wow, lots of great information in here, Dr. Marks! I've struggled with sleep since childhood. The pink noise sounds intriguing. I'm going to look for that along with doing some of the other suggestions. Thank you! ❤
Try taking magnesium and glycine supplements, they have drastically improved my sleep. I do majority of these suggestions in this video already, but I still struggled due to perimenopause.
Needed this thanks. Diagnosed with hip dysplasia 4 months ago before my 50th…has disturbed my sleep…plus work consultations prior to job redundancy correlating…insomnia has become ongoing and really affects daytime focus and my moods..hoping this will pass soon
You've been a blessing. I hope and pray you grow leaps and bounds and you're able to touch lives in a positive way thank you again doc please keep uploading 🙏
Dr. Huberman made an excellent video/podcast on sleep cycles. He delved deep into the effects of light, sound, etc on sleep & methods to improve patterns and quality.
I was diagnosed with 2 types of sleep apnea a few weeks ago, but i dont have a CPAP yet, so my sleep has been HORRIBLE. What my dr told me about my sleep study really scared me, so now im literally scared to sleep. Its horrible, and my mental health hasnt been this bad in a LONG time. Sleep is SO important 😢
Thank you. Could you, if you haven't already, do a video on the sleep needs of children through teens. I had friends that didn't get much sleep and did well in school but I was one of those that need at least 9 to 10 hours.
Dr. Marks, is there data on the effects of formal meditation techniques in augmenting the sleep benefits for the brain? For example, about 50 years ago there was a technique called Transendental Meditation which put people into a state of "mindful dreaming" for 20 minutes twice a day. In a psychiatry elective on hypnosis, which I took in medical school, many of the techniques we were taught were exactly what Transendental Meditation taught except in a self-induced way. It seems to have been mostly REM sleep.
I have Fibomyalgia and Aspergers ( now just Autism) Both involve sleep issues. I have tried all of the sleep hygiene deas you recommend but still suffer from sleep issues. Can you explain more about these specfic challenges and advise please?
Try taking magnesium and glycine supplements, they have drastically improved my sleep. I do majority of these suggestions in this video already, but I still struggled due to perimenopause.

another importance of sleep video uploaded after i only got 3-4 hours for the 6th day in a row. i’ve been trying to fix my sleep for a year now & i know that’s why my adhd and depression are getting so much worse & it’s so hard to function but because it’s so hard to function……how am i suppose to fix this? do i even have the ability to? :(
If you have tried all the things in the video and that hasn't helped then I would suggest the Keto diet. Dr Marks has already spoken positively about Keto for help with other issues and I found that it cured my sleep apnea, getting up multiple times in the night to pee and it is also know to help with adhd and depression. Also, magnesium glycinate and lemon balm tea are good to take before sleep. Dr Eric Berg is my goto healthy Keto guy, here on UA-cam. Search for his getting started on Keto videos and change to Keto gradually over a week or more rather than in 1 day. Keto is the single most useful thing I have ever done for my health, and its perfectly safe for the long term. I have been Keto for 5 years and a friend for 13 years. Never going back to carbs

شكرا على المحتوى المشبع في 10 دقائق بأجوبة على جميع اسئلة الشخص للحالة التي تتكلمين عنها. أيضا انت جميلة جدا. من فضلك انا مدمن على نوع من الحبوب المنشطة رغم المحاولات من أجل الاقلاع لكن عبث. هل يمكنك مساعدتي في طريقة أو بأخرى
This is purely anecdotal information keep that in mind, but I feel compelled to tell you that my mother had ect treatments and she was never the same person again.. it’s like certain parts of her personality died, however the worst parts of her personality survived.
So, if you dream it means you did go to REM? and if you are a lucid dreamer generally, would that affect in a bad way since maybe your brain doesn't fully control the outled of procesing emotions during that day, like you said?? thank you so much, I follow you for many years now and your videos have always been very helpful! I tend to be a bad sleeper and since my mom passed I use sleeping pills, but always dream and since I am a lucid dreamer I tend to use it to be with her, making my days not as fun. Is that bad?? I sleep over 9h just because I tend to be doing something I want to end in my dream, and notice my head does not like it. I also discovered my eldest brother is also a lucid dreamer, he controls it all I only control half or so... and we are oposites in most things. So I guess this might be genetic? my other brother does not even remember his dreams...
If I'm lucky, I can get a 3-4 hour burst of sleep before falling into a pattern I've had for 99% of nights over the past several years: waking up regularly throughout the night. Typically, getting to sleep isn't the issue, it is staying asleep. If I'm unlucky, I will wake up multiple times throughout the night start to finish. I've found that if I physically get out of bed for as little as a minute, I feel the lull of sleep again potently and I can usually be back asleep in about a minute (or even less) once back in bed. If I stay in bed after waking up, I have a much harder time getting back to sleep. I rationalize this as by getting out of bed, I am forcing my brain to observe that it is still night and thus time to sleep. Curiously, the timing of when I wake up can varied wildly. Only roughly on average, I wake up about every 90 minutes, consistent with the average timing of a sleep cycle. However, it is still common to wake up every 60 (or less) or 75 or well over 90 minutes. And with what appear to be random degrees of tiredness each time I wake up. Often, I am increasingly exhausted by morning and sometimes I actually feel refreshed, ranging anywhere from 7 to 10 hours total sleep time. I had a sleep study some years ago and all I was told was I had "alpha intrusions," with little explanation. As best I can surmise, it means over-stimulation. I don't have a clear answer as to why. Perhaps the worst part of this is that ANY changes in sleep from what happened to be the past couple nights are a major migraine trigger. Frequency has varied, but I've been getting migraines for over 20 years. I am very sensitive to heat (it does not take much or long to trigger a migraine) and have to rely heavily on air conditioning, even outside of summer (I sing it as: the most horr-ible time of the year). Until I starting wearing ear plugs (constantly barking dogs as late as 11PM), I found listening to music on low volume significantly helped to lull me to sleep. I've described it as enough pattern recognition for my mind to pick up on so I don't end up with a wandering mind before bed. It's like listening to music to help driving anxiety: enough familiar pattern recognition to divert mental attention away from anxiety. It had to be something I knew very well and was used too. That meant specific albums of the melodic death metal artist Insomnium. Seriously, I've long relied on a variant of DEATH METAL to get to sleep. And it worked time and time again. This is with being on medication for mental health, including sedatives to encourage sleep.
I seem to require more rest/sleep than normal. I’ve always been a night owl, but I’ve gotten to where I can go to sleep around 10 pm and still have broken sleep, then get up between 6:30-8am. Unfortunately, that’s with a sleeping pill.
I have been practicing sleep hygiene and everything mentioned in this video and yet I still struggle to stay asleep and wake up repeatedly through the night and early in the morning and can't get back to sleep. Yet my husband does not practice sleep hygiene, he stays up late most nights playing video games and eating snacks and when he gets to bed, he falls asleep right away and stays asleep all night. I wonder if there is a genetic component to not being able to sleep a full night? Both of my parents are insomniacs and barely sleep.
Try taking magnesium and glycine supplements, they have drastically improved my sleep. I do majority of these suggestions in this video already, but I still struggled due to perimenopause.
The only thing here is I always heard that studying at night was very effective for memorization, in regard to your mention of brain activity being detrimental to sound sleep. However, if studying is effective at night, seems brain activity in the form of studying might elcit sound deep sleep (?)
May i ask how common is it to get diagnosed with schizophrenia under 18, i was diagnosed at 15 from a psychiatrist. suffered alot, medication helped alot, my older brother also has schizophrenia. (I heard its more common to get diagnosed while older
Try taking magnesium and glycine supplements, they have drastically improved my sleep. I do majority of these suggestions in this video already, but I still struggled due to perimenopause.
Wow? I did not know the physical brain tissue stuff. I knew some of the other stuff. I don't trust some certain sleep channels though. I caught channels with subliminal frequency brainwashing in it in the background. You would have to be a dog to hear it. It's like the pop-rap music. Programming. I use channels to fall asleep because I stay in the urban/city areas. Constant noise pollution.

I find solutions to problems that I cannot figure out in my sleep. I focus on it before I go to bed and I usually find my answers. We are wonderfully made.
These are very helpful tips I can use! I just got off a graveyard shift and I’m trying to adjust to the more conventional day shift now.
You taught me a new word! "Glymphatic"! You make both my glymphatic AND lymphatic symptoms drain any unease with that anxiolytic voice of yours, Dr. Mraks.
It’s also why you should kick off the day with glass of water.
This video is gold. I'm going to watch this a few times and work out a schedule for myself. Thank you for this helpful video

You just found it didn't you?
Just watch this video when you can't sleep.
Great practical tips, Dr Marks, thanks. Not sure if your video has accidentally been mis-titled as the YT link itself?
Sleep is sometimes so hard, but I sleep whenever I feel like it, if that is an possibility.
This has helped me get rid of long periods of insomnia, although I dream more intensely now, it's completely worth it.
Humans have slept more naturally in these intervals longer than the industrialised civilisation has lingered, so it feels more like a second nature.

However, it is still common to wake up every 60 (or less) or 75 or well over 90 minutes. And with what appear to be random degrees of tiredness each time I wake up.
Often, I am increasingly exhausted by morning and sometimes I actually feel refreshed, ranging anywhere from 7 to 10 hours total sleep time.
I had a sleep study some years ago and all I was told was I had "alpha intrusions," with little explanation. As best I can surmise, it means over-stimulation. I don't have a clear answer as to why.
Perhaps the worst part of this is that ANY changes in sleep from what happened to be the past couple nights are a major migraine trigger. Frequency has varied, but I've been getting migraines for over 20 years. I am very sensitive to heat (it does not take much or long to trigger a migraine) and have to rely heavily on air conditioning, even outside of summer (I sing it as: the most horr-ible time of the year).
Until I starting wearing ear plugs (constantly barking dogs as late as 11PM), I found listening to music on low volume significantly helped to lull me to sleep. I've described it as enough pattern recognition for my mind to pick up on so I don't end up with a wandering mind before bed. It's like listening to music to help driving anxiety: enough familiar pattern recognition to divert mental attention away from anxiety. It had to be something I knew very well and was used too. That meant specific albums of the melodic death metal artist Insomnium. Seriously, I've long relied on a variant of DEATH METAL to get to sleep. And it worked time and time again.
This is with being on medication for mental health, including sedatives to encourage sleep.
I seem to require more rest/sleep than normal. I’ve always been a night owl, but I’ve gotten to where I can go to sleep around 10 pm and still have broken sleep, then get up between 6:30-8am. Unfortunately, that’s with a sleeping pill.
I have been practicing sleep hygiene and everything mentioned in this video and yet I still struggle to stay asleep and wake up repeatedly through the night and early in the morning and can't get back to sleep. Yet my husband does not practice sleep hygiene, he stays up late most nights playing video games and eating snacks and when he gets to bed, he falls asleep right away and stays asleep all night. I wonder if there is a genetic component to not being able to sleep a full night? Both of my parents are insomniacs and barely sleep.
Try taking magnesium and glycine supplements, they have drastically improved my sleep. I do majority of these suggestions in this video already, but I still struggled due to perimenopause.
The only thing here is I always heard that studying at night was very effective for memorization, in regard to your mention of brain activity being detrimental to sound sleep. However, if studying is effective at night, seems brain activity in the form of studying might elcit sound deep sleep (?)
If you wake up in the middle of the night (like to use the bathroom) does this process start over?
May i ask how common is it to get diagnosed with schizophrenia under 18, i was diagnosed at 15 from a psychiatrist. suffered alot, medication helped alot, my older brother also has schizophrenia. (I heard its more common to get diagnosed while older
One way to avoid exhaustion is sprinting on the treadmill. How about lung microbiome?
According to my Fitbit I get more REM and deep sleep than average but get less light sleep. Is this good or bed?
Why does sleep become so difficult in menopause?
My frontal lobe was damaged from a tbi. I was in a coma for 28 days. An inebriated driver hit me as a pedestrian. Idk whats best to do.
I had an acquaintance who was addicted to coffee (he drank 10 coffees a day)
How does waking up periodically throughout the night to urinate, for us guy's who have an enlarged prostate? BPH?
i can't get more than 40 mins of deep sleep at night, even with sleep meds. :(
Try taking magnesium and glycine supplements, they have drastically improved my sleep. I do majority of these suggestions in this video already, but I still struggled due to perimenopause.
I'm only around 40mins too, sometimes 20. I'm learning to accept it now.

Wow? I did not know the physical brain tissue stuff. I knew some of the other stuff. I don't trust some certain sleep channels though. I caught channels with subliminal frequency brainwashing in it in the background. You would have to be a dog to hear it. It's like the pop-rap music. Programming. I use channels to fall asleep because I stay in the urban/city areas. Constant noise pollution.
