Welcome to Untangle, the podcast for Muse, the brain sensing headband that helps you meditate, and five-star out meditation studio.

I'm your host, Patricia Carpice.

Before we get started, a reminder to check out the free SOSCOM collection of meditations on news or meditation studio. And if you and your family

want to meditate while you're at home or deepen your practice, use the discount code Muse stress

less for your muse headband at choosemuse.com. We're thinking of all of you and wishing you the

very best. Now on to today's episode.

Today's guest is Dr. Shelby Harris.

Shelby's the former director of the Behavior Sleep Medicine Program at Montepiore Medical Center.

She's board certified in behavior sleep disorders and focuses on a wide variety of sleep challenges in her private practice.

Her new book, The Woman's Guide to Overcoming Insomnia, Get a Good Night Sleep without

relying on medication, is a winner.

It's not surprising since more than 60% of American women have trouble sleeping.

In this interview, Shelby goes over the nuts and bolts of a good

night's sleep, how our hormones affect our sleep, how we can change certain habits, thoughts,

and behaviors all in the service of a better night's sleep. Lots of gems in this interview,

and we all know how important sleep is to our overall health and well-being.

Shelby also has meditations and a basic sleep course on Muse.

So check that out as well.

Now here's Shelby.

Shelby, it is such a pleasure to have you back on Untangle.

Thank you so much for being here.

Thank you for having me, Patricia.
