Summary
We can all power through with lack of sleep. We've all had days when we're dragging and going through the motions regardless of how little sleep we got. However, I think we've done ourselves a huge and dangerous disservice by thinking of sleep as primarily related to energy. It's a lot more - for us and for our kids. Remarkably, our bodies are built to heal themselves. They're designed to neutralize and eliminate harmful pathogens and prevent the proliferation of unhealthy cells. That machinery largely functions while we're asleep - and while we're in deep, restorative phases of sleep.

| 0:51.4 | Hello, everybody. Welcome back to the Primal Potential Podcast. I am Elizabeth Benton. |
| 0:57.8 | I know. I don't usually release a bonus episode on Tuesday, but this is a time sensitive |
| 1:07.0 | email. It's not an email. This is a podcast. A time sensitive podcast. You will see why. |
| 1:17.9 | What I want to talk about today is sleep. Sleep for you, sleep for your kids, sleep for |
| 1:26.1 | everybody. I was actually just having this conversation with my trainer the other day, |
| 1:29.8 | and it's true for both of us. I wonder if it's true for you. We were talking about the |
| 1:36.2 | big needle movers when it comes to nutrition, and both of us were saying that one of, if |
| 1:44.9 | not the biggest thing we can do to help ourselves with our eating habits, not eating sweets |
| 1:52.5 | and not having excessive cravings and not overeating is getting enough sleep. For me, and |
| 1:58.5 | she was saying the same is true for her, if I don't get enough sleep, I am more hungry, |
| 2:04.2 | I have more cravings, I have way less motivation and way less give a care. If I am tired, I am |
