À propos de ce contenu audio
The middle-of-the-night awakening isn't insomnia. It's a buried biological rhythm that modern society pathologized.
In this bonus episode, we explore:
• Roger Ekirch's discovery of 500+ historical references to "first sleep" and "second sleep" across cultures
• How the Industrial Revolution erased segmented sleep from our collective memory
• Thomas Wehr's groundbreaking 1990s lab experiment proving biphasic sleep is still hardwired into us
• The meditative, creative potential of that liminal space between sleeps
• Why modern sleep medicine may have gotten it wrong
• How to reframe nighttime waking from failure into invitation Your ancestors knew something we've forgotten.
The night has gifts to offer, but only if we stop fighting it. The space between sleeps isn't empty. It's full of possibility.
