Episode 109 - Letting Go of Alcohol and Improving Sleep With James Swanwick

If you want to naturally increase your testosterone levels,
alcohol is one of the first things you need to cut off. Alcohol
increases estrogen, the female hormone.
We need to have a little bit of estrogen in our blood, but too much
of it causes belly fat storage and man boobs and keeps us
counterbalanced.

Sleep is essential, too, for the production of testosterone. This
hormone is produced in the morning, but deep sleep is crucial.
Since alcohol compromises the quality of your sleep, its
consumption compromises your testosterone levels.

Today’s guest, James Swanwick, is an expert in both alcohol and
sleep.
James Swanwick is a former SportsCenter anchor on ESPN, CEO and
founder of Swanwick Sleep and Alcohol-Free Lifestyle, and host of
the podcast Alcohol-Free Lifestyle.
His teachings on sleep and alcohol have been featured in Forbes,
Entrepreneur magazine, and Psychology Today.

Swanwick Sleep makes stylish blue light-blocking glasses known as
Swannies. These products help people avoid the harmful effects of
exposure to blue light and improve their sleep quality.
Besides, he’s the author of “The 30 Day No Alcohol Challenge”, a
book that helps people let go of alcohol, even if they are only
social drinkers, to take their performance from average to the
highest level!

As you can tell, I had enough reasons to bring James to the show.
Tune in to discover amazing hacks you can utilize to quit alcohol
for good, improve your sleep and feel even more
SuperHuman.

“If you’ve got those five pillars (fun, community, accountability,
coaching, and skin in the game), you’ll stop drinking. But most
people are just tryna use willpower and motivation, and they are
stuck in the hamster wheel.”

—James Swanwick
