In a nutshell, this episode is about sleep. But the nutshell comes with the tree, brush, branches, squirrels, and (13:30) a yapping Yorkie.

Sleep is crucial to wellness. If you want to make wise food choices, sleep. If you want energy to exercise, sleep. If you want mental focus and brainpower, sleep. If you want to be patient with people, sleep. If you want to perform tasks expected of you, sleep. If you want to choose water over wine, sleep. If you want to make life easier, sleep. If you want to love yourself, sleep.

You’re probably aware that a dark, cool room aids sleep. This episode suggests that and also provides some before-bed practices that may you to go to sleep and stay asleep.
