Dr Rangan Chatterjee: GP & Author
About this episode

We often think of sleep as the third pillar of health underneath diet and exercise, but Matthew believes sleep is the first pillar on which all others sit.


Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.


Today’s guest is world-leading sleep researcher, author of the international best-selling book ‘Why We Sleep’ and Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology, Matthew Walker.


Matthew shares research on how important sleep is for our health and the amazing power it has to recharge our mind and body.


We explore how proper sleep can benefit your life and Matthew shares his tips for better sleep.
