“The problem with sleeping pills, they can be effective, but they’re sedatives. So the sleep you’re getting isn't natural sleep. You’re not going to wake up feeling refreshed like you would if you were sleeping naturally.” [13:53] – Kelly Murray
“The key to make sure that your body is producing melatonin when it should is to wake up and go to bed at the same time every day, even on the weekends...also making sure you’re avoiding blue light before you go to bed for at least an hour.” [15:05] – Kelly Murray
“If you take it [melatonin] long term, your body may stop producing enough naturally.” [16:55] – Kelly Murray
“If you’re not sleeping well, that is a red flag that there is something going on mentally or physically or both that is causing your sleep issues.” [17:57] – Kelly Murray
“Whenever we are stressed, our body produces cortisol because our body thinks there is danger and it wants to have energy to flee the danger. The excessive cortisol that you’re producing during the day is still going to be there at night and that can cause sleep issues. Make sure you’re taking breaks throughout the day.” [20:15] – Kelly Murray
