Sleep Well - Ep 2: Use the morning light

Get comfortable, let go of the cares of the day and take a sonic
journey with Dr Michael Mosley. In this new sound-filled podcast
series, designed to help you drift off, each episode focuses on a
scientifically proven sleep technique and takes a deep dive
through some incredible sleep-related bodily mechanisms.


The light of the morning can be a powerful ally when it comes to
the evening and falling asleep. Also: special eye sensors that
have nothing to do with vision, a master timekeeper in the brain
that’s smaller than a grain of rice, and the hormone of night.


Guest: Dr Christine Blume, psychologist and sleep researcher at
the Centre for Chronobiology in Basel, Switzerland.
