Summary

In this episode we explore whether getting up that little bit earlier is making a positive difference to my day. Am I more productive? Is my concentration better? Am I wasting less of my day?

I also examine how an early start can only really be successful if your bedtime routine is on point too. It's all about structure apparently. Plus there's lots of feedback and insight from the members of the private Facebook group for listeners, which you can join here -- THE FORUM.

0:00.0	This episode of the podcast is brought to you in partnership with Sensodyne.
0:04.4	You may have heard in the podcast last week that I took part in a chill test with dentist Anita Sandu.
0:10.6	This is her area of expertise and she guided me through drinking ice cold water,
0:15.0	eating a slice of fresh apple and taking a bite out of a trock ice,
0:20.0	all with the purpose of learning about my teeth sensitivity. Now I knew I had some sensitivity but it was really helpful
0:26.1	learning from Anita the reasons why, the foods that can cause that sharp feeling of sensitivity,
0:31.1	and the changes I can make to minimize any discomfort moving forward.
0:35.0	Since the chill test I've been using Senser Dine Repair and Protect Toothpaste,
0:39.0	it's clinically proven to provide long lasting protection for sensitive teeth with twice daily brushing,
0:44.2	and is expertly formulated to generate a protective layer over exposed areas of your teeth
0:48.8	to help protect you from the pain of sensitive teeth.
0:51.5	So if like me you've struggled with sensitive teeth, go get yourself
0:54.4	some sensody and repair and protect now.
1:09.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of the Emmer Gunn show. It's good to have you with me. In this show I'm going to be giving you a little bit of an update on how early starts, early mornings are working out for me.
1:17.6	So the current, the current habit in actual fact involves getting up early and I was hopeful that it might be 5 a.m.
1:26.0	but it's turning out to be near a 6 and even though we're in the height of summer here in
1:30.4	London and dawn is at 5 o'clock around then. I'm actually really
1:34.9	struggling to haul my ass out of bed at that time, which has been a bit for
1:39.6	surprise. It's a little bit conflicting because I've suffered with insomnia over the years so to be sleeping so heavily is a win
1:47.2	But not if it comes at the price of sleeping too long or sleeping in late like all of habits it's just a case of digging in my
1:53.9	heels and going forward so I have been persevering. And on the days when I have
1:58.4	woken up earlier than usual I have been more productive no doubt about it I've been in the gym at six as opposed to at eight and it's opened up the day so that by the time I hit lunchtime I feel as though I've already really crossed loads of my to-do list or I've taken big chunks out of
