Description
<p>In today's episode, Linda is discussing “sleep” from the SHMEC model, (SHMEC is discussed in previous episodes, she invites you to listen to them if you are not sure what she is on about:-) We use “sleep” from Dr. Jade's SHMEC model to assist us in relation to minding our weight.</p><p>According to Allan Rechtschaffen “sleep is a biological necessity in its own right” not sleeping well has been proven to affect weight. If you are sleep restricted or deprived your eating behaviours may become more of a grab and go style. Maybe you are relying on lots of carbs? That could be because of fatigue. You cannot be bothered with the effort of eating well. The higher eating centres in the brain decide they need comforted and you deserve high fat high carb meals. We all know what those types of meals do to us.</p><p> </p><p>But, in order to do something about it, you need to get some awareness around the subject. And so, Linda has provided some explanation within this episode. In the next episode she dives into her own story. She will also be chatting to her husband about their experiences with sleep and its ultimate effect on weight.</p><p> </p><p><strong>“Helping busy women positively mind their weight changing and maintaining for the long term” Linda Allison</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>KEY TAKEAWAYS </p><ul><li>Thomas Edison is said to have slept 3-4 hours per night and demanded his employees adopted a similar regimen. Linda would have been dead on her feet and sacked. Her appetite would have also been all over the place!</li></ul><p> </p><ul><li>Sleep is tightly controlled by circadian and homeostatic influences that defy tinkering about with over long periods of time. This could adversely affect weight minding.</li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><ul><li>If you are 40 years plus, maybe you have noticed that you are not sleeping as well as you used to? Perhaps you are perimenopausal? Is this driving poorer eating behaviours?</li></ul><p> </p><ul><li>Are you so tired that you are relying on grab and go food more often?</li></ul><p> </p><ul><li>Do you know the difference between sleep restriction and sleep deprivation?</li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p>BEST MOMENTS </p><p>“The point is, let's talk <strong>“healthspan”</strong> rather than “lifespan”</p><p>“I did not have any history at all of sleep disruption up until I became perimenopausal”</p><p>“I have bumpy nights that can last more than one night.”</p><p>“If you're doing everything right but not seeing results with fat loss and weight management then you are not doing everything right.”</p><p>“YOU have the ticket within you to food freedom, body freedom and mind freed”</p><p> </p><p>VALUABLE RESOURCES</p><p> </p><p>Education Source: “Nutrition, Fitness, and Mindfulness” Jaime Uribarri et al</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>CONTACT METHOD</p><p>INSTAGRAM - @allisol (DM her)</p><p>FACEBOOK - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mybrilliantbeyond">https://www.facebook.com/mybrilliantbeyond</a> (DM)</p><p>www.weightminders.club</p><p>linda@weightminders.club</p><p> </p><p>ABOUT THE HOST</p><p>Linda is a certified fit pro and transformational coach passionate about fitness, food and nutrition.
