Episode 76: Insomnia

In this episode, Mark and Dr. John discuss the topic of insomnia. 40 million people suffer from insomnia each year. 25% of people have had insufficient sleep for 15 out of the last 30 days! The guys discuss the effects of poor sleep as well as nighttime routines to help people go to sleep. Some of these include blue light, reducing stress before bed, proper environments, gratitude, forgiveness, and the avoidance of heavy meals before bed. Mark and John also discuss how the Lord uses sleepless nights, and they take some examples from Scripture.
