I discuss the Power of the Downstate with Sara Mednick in this episode of the Passion Struck Podcast Sara Mednick joins the Passion Struck podcast to discuss why most people find themselves immersed in "upstate" moments that magnify our stress engines, but it doesn't have to be that way.

Dr. Mednick’s seven-bedroom sleep lab works literally around the clock to discover methods for boosting cognition by napping, stimulating the brain with electricity, sound and light, and pharmacology. 0:00 Announcements 3:11 Introducing Dr. Sara Mednick 5:02 Becoming a sleep expert 10:13 The need to look at sleep holistically 13:27 What is the downstate? 17:24 How stress impacts sleep 22:20 Discrimination impacts the balance between the rev and the restore systems 25:48 Why does modern culture deny rest? 28:34 Regulating your upstate and downstate 36:29 How to become a downstate Maven 39:46 Importance of the Vagus nerve 45:54 How sleep disorders correlate with neurodegenerative diseases 49:47 Importance of sleep habits 54:28 Wrap up and synthesis Where you can find Dr. Sara Mednick: * Website: https://www.saramednick.com/ * Twitter: https://twitter.com/Sara_Mednick * Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sara_mednick_downstate/ * LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saramednick/ Links from the show * My interview with Katy Milkman Ph.D. on how to create lasting behavior change: https://passionstruck.com/katy-milkman-behavior-change-for-good/ * My interview with David Yaden Ph.D. on self-transcendence, psychedelics, and behavior change: https://passionstruck.com/david-yaden-on-self-transcendence-experiences/ * My interview with Michael Slepian Ph.D.: https://passionstruck.com/michael-slepian-the-secret-life-of-secrets/ * My interview with Admiral Sandy Stosz on how to lead in unchartered waters: https://passionstruck.com/admiral-sandy-stosz-leader-with-moral-courage/ * My solo episode on why micro choices matter: https://passionstruck.com/why-your-micro-choices-determine-your-life/ * My solo episode on why you must feel to heal: https://passionstruck.com/why-you-must-feel-to-find-emotional-healing/ -- Welcome to Passion Struck podcast, a show where you get to join me in exploring the mindset and philosophy of the world's most inspiring everyday heroes to learn their lessons to living intentionally.
