How to Improve Sleep and Rhythms to Preserve Brain Health

What is the best way to measure sleep?

The brain-wave sleep that is an indicator of brain health is not measured by most consumer technology devices. They can still offer insights about your sleep patterns and wakefulness during the night. There are physical changes in your body during sleep. Your heart rate, body temperature, and activity levels are included. Some newer technology can distinguish light and deep sleep, and some sensors can use a program to predict when you are asleep or awake. The advantage to using these sensors is that they can measure every day and give a sense of your sleep regularity over time.

There is a connection between sleep and brain health and it shows us how to prevent and treat brain diseases.

Researchers used a sound that stimulates sleep in older adults. The amount of improvement in sleep was related to the improvement in memory. The study found that timed light therapy improved daytime sleepiness, sleep quality, daily physical activity levels, and the Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale score, which measures the severity and progression of the disease.

Our internal rhythm needs to be in sync with our exposure to light and darkness for our bodies to function well. The light that reaches the eyes is different from the light that is available in the sun. The right types of light are available at the right times if you match your internal clock to the sun. Our sleep and wake cycles are affected by the light and dark that we experience daily. Our nutrition provides us with information about when and how much we eat.

Our lifestyles can affect our sleep and rhythms. External factors, like our daily schedule, can negatively impact sleep. It also means lifestyle changes can have a positive impact on sleep.

  Researchers recommends setting a regular sleep-wake schedule that will give you 7 to 8 hours of sleep per night. She says that it is more important than how much sleep you get to have a good brain. Light exposure and eating timed to coincide with the day will help your body stay in rhythm. Alcohol can disrupt sleep and suppress sleep, so reduce or avoid it. This causes a rebound effect that wakes you up.

  How much sleep is enough? How do you know you are getting enough?

 Regularity is important. We all have bad nights. It can have a bigger impact on our health if it is chronic. The general recommendation is 7 to 8 hours for adults and 7 to 8 hours for older adults. There are differences based on our unique bodies.

How do you know you are getting enough sleep? Consider how you feel. Are you able to stay awake and do your daily activities? These daytime indicators help us gauge how much sleep we need since we can’t get regular scans of our brains.

If you are struggling with brain fog, memory issues, focus issues and insomnia we can help.

Emotional Healing Approaches

If you’re trying to heal your emotional pain, here are some ways that you can embark on your journey to emotional healing

Therapy 

Emotional healing can be incredibly rewarding but it can also be painful in the interim. You might want to consider talking to a mental health professional who is trained in working with people on emotional healing journeys every day.

They can help you heal at a pace that is appropriate for you and provide the insight you might not be able to reach on your own. 

Mindfulness

When we are attempting emotional healing from something, it can be very easy to get pulled back into past events or to catastrophize what the future will be like if you don’t heal. Mindfulness practices can help you be in the present moment and see that, at this moment, you are just fine.

Journaling is often suggested—and for good reason. Research shows4 that journaling is an effective way to reach insights into the unconscious by helping people work through their feelings and make meaning of what has happened to them. 

Allow yourself to feel the fullness of your grief, anger, pain, or loss without attaching further meaning, stories, or thoughts. This can be deeply healing and helpful in processing emotions.

Research indicates the cycle of an emotion may last only 90 seconds.5 This information can help emotions feel less overwhelming. When you are overcome by an emotion, you can keep an eye on the clock to note how long it takes before the feeling dissipates—employing mindfulness skills in the meantime.

Notice, allow, and describe the physical sensation of the emotion moving through your body without judging it or attempting to change it. Breathe through the sensations.

You can perform exercises to ground yourself such as putting your feet on the floor, drinking a sip of water, or running cold water over your hands.

Move Your Body

As you’re experiencing difficult emotions, try to move your body to help process your feelings. Move your body in ways that it wants to move (i.e., slowly or quickly, shaking or running).

Moving the body to process stress or trauma can be seen in the animal kingdom as well. In his book “Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma,” therapist Peter A. Levine notes that in the wild, an impala that escapes its predator will instinctively “shake off” the traumatic event, regaining full movement of its body.6

Therapeutic techniques like somatic experiencing (SE) and trauma release exercises (TRE) can help process and move trauma and emotions from within the body. SE involves a person becoming aware of their internal bodily sensations and bringing awareness to them.7 TRE involves a person intentionally moving their bodies to decrease stress levels.8

Get Support

Be open to receiving support from your community. Allow yourself to be seen, supported, and cared for by friends and loved ones.

No matter what the trigger for your difficult emotions, emotional healing is possible in all of these scenarios. Anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues can’t wait. At Sundardas Naturopathic Clinic, we’re here for you. We offer in-clinic appointments, as well as mental telehealth, clinical evaluations, and therapy for adults, teens, children, and couples.

How a Healthy Gut Can Help You Lose Weight

Maintaining a healthy gut is essential for overall well-being and can play a significant role in weight management. The gut is responsible for digesting food and absorbing nutrients, and it is also home to trillions of bacteria that make up the gut microbiome.

These bacteria play a crucial role in regulating metabolism, digestion, and immune function, and research has shown that an imbalance in the gut microbiome can lead to weight gain and obesity.

One way that a healthy gut can help with weight management is by improving digestion and reducing inflammation. When the gut is healthy, food is broken down more efficiently, and nutrients are absorbed more effectively, which can help to reduce feelings of hunger and prevent overeating. A healthy gut can also reduce inflammation in the body, which is a known risk factor for weight gain and obesity.

Another way that a healthy gut can help with weight management is by regulating metabolism. The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism by producing hormones that control appetite and metabolism, such as leptin and ghrelin. When the gut microbiome is imbalanced, it can lead to insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction, which can lead to weight gain and obesity.

Finally, a healthy gut can help with weight management by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria. Beneficial bacteria in the gut can help to break down complex carbohydrates and fiber, which can promote feelings of fullness and reduce calorie intake. They can also help to produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which have been shown to reduce inflammation, improve insulin sensitivity, and promote weight loss.

In conclusion, maintaining a healthy gut is essential for weight management. A healthy gut can help to improve digestion, reduce inflammation, regulate metabolism, and promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, all of which can contribute to weight loss and overall health. Simple steps such as eating a balanced diet rich in fiber and fermented foods, staying hydrated, getting enough sleep, and managing stress can help to improve gut health and support weight management goals.

Eating according to your blood type can support a healthy gut microbiome. For example, individuals with blood type A are advised to avoid meat and dairy products, which can be difficult to digest and may disrupt the balance of the microbiome. Instead, they are encouraged to consume a primarily plant-based diet, which has been shown to promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.

I have put at least 10,000 individuals on their blood type diets. Occasionally we may have had to tweak they diets a little to account for their epi-genetic variations. At least 85% of this population expressed satisfaction on these diet plans.  If you struggle with constipation, diarrhoea, acid reflux, heartburn, GERD, indigestion, gas, or bloating, Call us and get support now. Don’t suffer alone in silence.

The Role of Sleep and Rhythms and your Brain

50 million Americans suffer from a sleep disorder. Our brain health is dependent on sleep. There is a correlation between sleep problems and neurological diseases. Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and others are included.

The brain is very complex. The American Brain Foundation believes that finding a cure for one brain disease will help find cures for others. The association between sleep and brain health shows how one issue can be linked to multiple diseases.

Accordin to Phyllis C. Zee, MD, PhD, Chief of the Division of Sleep Medicine at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine sleep and our circadian rhythms play an important role in brain health.

The suprachiasmatic nucleus is the brain’s master clock and it controls many systems of the body. Our body systems follow a cycle of rest and activity to help us function. Our bodies regulate sleep at the cellular and molecular level. The near- 24 hour biological rhythms, or the circadian rhythm, have been shown to be genetically regulated and they exist in almost every cell of our body.

  It is a two-way relationship. Our brains and bodies regulate our sleep. Our sleep and rhythms affect our brains and bodies. Our health and body functions are affected by sleep disruptions. They are linked to an increased risk for diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Some data shows that sleep and rhythm issues may be a risk factor for brain disease.

  Research shows that deep sleep decreases with age. A decrease in deep sleep is associated with an increase in amyloid. People with Alzheimer’s have a certain amount of this Protein. Quality sleep will allow the fluids between the neurons to flush out large molecule and prevent toxic build up. The risk for brain diseases could be increased by disrupted sleep.

  REM sleep behavior disorder (RBM) is a condition in which people with Parkinson’s disease act out their dreams for years before their diagnosis. The sleep disorder could be considered a prodromal syndrome if it is a sign that precedes Parkinson’s. People with RBD are more likely to have cognitive problems.

If you are struggling with brain fog, memory issues, focus issues, we can help.

Melt your Fat at the Speed of Light with MaxLipo Light Treatment

Red Light Therapy has been used successfully by doctors, chiropractors, massage therapists, physical therapists, and health and wellness professionals to help treat a variety of concerns for their patients, including: body MaxLipo (fat loss), skin rejuvenation, pain management and inflammation reduction.

MaxLipo Light Treatment

The closer the light is to the skin, the more effective the treatment. The MaxLipo Light pad delivery system allows direct application to the skin. We recommend that patients wear a two-piece bathing suit, speedo or boxers attire, for maximum treatment coverage. The patient lies on a treatment table and the pads are placed on the areas of treatment. Typically, that includes two large pads placed underneath the mid back and back upper legs, two large pads placed on the abdomen and the front of the upper legs.

One small pad on each of the upper arms, and the face mask is placed arching over the face and chest area. The pads can be used in a variety of configurations, specific to the areas on which the patients desire treatment.
Once the system is on, the patient will see ultra bright red lights. Goggles should be worn to protect their eyes. After a few minutes, when the light stimulates the cell mitochondria and they begin to generate energy in the cells, the patient will feel a warming effect. The pads themselves do not emit heat, the warmth is primarily generated by the body. Many patients describe it as comforting and calming. A session can last up to 30 minutes, giving the patient time to relax and even nap.

The results from MaxLipo Light will vary from person to person based on nutrition, activity, healthy life style, and frequency of treatment. The recommended treatment protocol is 10 sessions-(every 2-3 days over a period of 2 -3 weeks) with periodic tune ups following.

MaxLipo Light along with a healthy life style of good nutrition and moderate exercise will result in remarkable and measurable results. That said, there is no particular diet or exercise regimen required, but drinking plenty of water and even a 15-20 minute walk or moderate exercise following a treatment will noticeably enhance the results.

The light emitted by the MaxLipo Light device is cool, and it does not generate excessive heat, so it will not burn or damage the tissue. However, the light is very bright and patients should take care to shield their eyes with goggles if using the face mask. Short glances at the light will not harm the eyes, but staring at the light should be completely avoided.

The recommended MaxLipo Light protocol involves a series of 10 treatment sessions of 30 minutes each, delivered every 2-3 days over a 3-week period. Most patients see a noticeable improvement within the first 2-3 treatments, some even after the first treatment. Depending on the patients’ goals, the full 10 session series can reliably address most of their expectations. Though continued treatments, or series can be added if needed for further benefit.

Your Gut-Brain and You!

The gut-brain connection is the idea that the health of your gut is closely linked to the health of your brain and mental well-being. While this may seem surprising, research has shown that the two are indeed connected in ways we are only beginning to understand.

The gut is home to trillions of bacteria, collectively known as the gut microbiome. These bacteria play a vital role in digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune function. But they also communicate with the brain via the vagus nerve, a long nerve that connects the brain to the digestive system.

When the gut microbiome is out of balance, it can lead to a condition known as dysbiosis, which is associated with various health problems, including anxiety, depression, and even autism. Dysbiosis can occur due to a poor diet, stress, antibiotics, and other factors that disrupt the delicate balance of bacteria in the gut.

The gut also produces many of the same neurotransmitters that are found in the brain, such as serotonin and dopamine. In fact, over 90% of serotonin is produced in the gut. This is why the gut is often referred to as the “second brain.”

When the gut is unhealthy, it can lead to a decrease in the production of these neurotransmitters, which can have a significant impact on mental health. Low serotonin levels, for example, are linked to depression and anxiety.

Fortunately, there are several ways to improve gut health and support the gut-brain connection. Eating a balanced diet that is rich in fiber, fruits, and vegetables is crucial. Probiotics and prebiotics, which can be found in fermented foods like yogurt and sauerkraut, can also help to improve gut health.

Reducing stress and getting enough sleep are also important for maintaining a healthy gut-brain connection. Exercise can also help by reducing inflammation in the gut and improving mood.

In conclusion, the gut-brain connection is a complex and fascinating area of research that has important implications for mental health. By taking care of our gut health, we can support our mental well-being and improve our overall quality of life.

The Impact of Exercise on Brain Function

Exercise is widely known for its physical benefits, but did you know that it can also have a powerful impact on your mental well-being? Studies have shown that regular exercise can improve mood, cognitive function and even protect your brain from neurological diseases.

When you exercise, your body releases chemicals called endorphins and dopamine, which are responsible for that “feel-good” feeling. These chemicals have a powerful impact on the brain, improving mood and reducing feelings of anxiety and depression. In fact, regular exercise has been shown to be as effective at reducing symptoms of depression as antidepressant medication in some cases.

Not only does exercise impact mood, but it also can have a positive effect on sleep. Studies have shown that regular physical activity improves both the quality and quantity of sleep, allowing you to wake up feeling more refreshed and energized. In addition to its mental benefits, exercise can also improve cognitive function. Aerobic exercise has been shown to improve memory and attention, as well as the ability to switch between tasks. One study even found that regular exercise can increase the size of the hippocampus, a part of the brain associated with memory and learning.

But exercise doesn’t just benefit your brain function in the short-term. Studies suggest that regular exercise can enhance the connectivity between neurons, improving brain function and even protecting against neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

Lastly, exercising has also been found to be a powerful tool in treating chronic pain conditions. Regular physical activity helps to increase circulation, which can reduce inflammation and pain. Developing a regular exercise routine can even help to reduce the need for pain medication in some cases, making it a valuable tool for managing chronic pain.

So how do you make exercise a part of your daily routine? Start by setting manageable goals and keep track of your progress. Find an activity that you enjoy, whether it’s taking a brisk walk or hitting the gym. Make exercise a social activity by joining a fitness class, taking a hike with friends or finding a running group. Remember, the key is consistency. Try to incorporate exercise into your routine at least three to four times a week. Over time, you’ll start to see the benefits not just physically, but mentally as well.

In conclusion, there’s no denying that exercise plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and well-being. By incorporating regular physical activity into your daily routine, you can improve mood, cognitive function, and protect against neurological diseases. Get moving, stay consistent, and see the benefits for yourself! If you are struggling with brain fog, memory issues, focus issues, we can help.

Emotional Healing Tips?

Tips for Emotional Healing

Practice self-compassion—you’re not broken. It’s pretty hard to heal if you’re beating yourself up all the time, and one study showed that those who practice self-compassion show greater increases in well-being1 than those who didn’t.

Thank yourself. Yes, that’s right—thank yourself. Despite the emotional pain you’ve experienced that’s leading you on this emotional healing journey, you have made it this far. Whatever coping mechanisms you used worked for you at the time, even if they don’t work now, or weren’t the “healthiest” in the first place. 

Don’t go it alone. Science shows we heal better together. Your instinct might be to go into hiding until you are “done” healing, but the reality is that your friends and family probably want to help you! Reach out to someone who feels safe.

Don’t try to “fix” it all at once. Emotional healing is not simple, and whatever happened to you likely has deeper roots in you than you realized and may be affecting you in many ways. Back to being realistic: don’t expect to fix all the ways your issue or trauma has affected you all at once.

Sit through it. This may be one of the hardest things to do. You are likely experiencing a range of deep feelings such as sadness, grief or rage. Those aren’t fun emotions and it’s tempting to want to ignore them or rush through them. It will be uncomfortable but acknowledging tough feelings is part of healing. The good news is that feelings do pass even if it doesn’t feel like they will.

Know that progress isn’t linear. You may feel like you are making the best breakthroughs, and then you have a terrible day where you feel like all of your emotional healing has been undone—or that you did something wrong. If you broke a leg, you might have a bad day where you’re in pain again despite a sustained period of healing. 

No matter what the trigger for your difficult emotions, emotional healing is possible in all of these scenarios. Anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues can’t wait. At Sundardas Naturopathic Clinic, we’re here for you.

“Psychosomatic experiencing is about working directly with your nervous system. You are about to become intimately familiar and comfortable with your inner survival system. You will learn how to shift the different emotional states to a manageable level within a few minutes. 

When our emotions are running our lives, we are not in a state of calm aliveness. Rather, there are imbalances in the nervous system that cause problems. It causes imbalances in other systems and organs in our body. Not to mention how these imbalances influence our thoughts, feelings and behaviours towards ourselves and others.”
