Our Brains Are Amazing... But Their Timing Sucks - 3 routines to fix that

It's episode93.  

This week Dave marvels at the power of our brains but identifies why its timing can be rubbish when it comes to brining worries, ideas and things you have to do to your attention. Have you ever settled down to sleep only to find you brain chimes in with a load of stuff resulting in you being unable to switch off and hours of staring at the ceiling? Or have you woken at 4am only to have you brain air a few things with you - sleep banished for the rest of the night? Chances are as a busy midlifer you will have experienced that numerous times. The trouble is we then don't recharge our batteries and cope less well the next day, leading to falling off our health and weight loss plans.

Dave shares three routines to help you improve your brain's timing and help you get a better night's sleep and switch off much easier.
