Today we dive into sleep habits. In this episode, we explore insights from our recent trip to Okinawa – including our unforgettable visit with the legendary 94-year-old bar owner Kimiko, whose unconventional sleep schedule led us to question universally accepted sleep rules.
We discuss the science behind sleep and readiness scores, local lifestyle adaptations, and the powerful influence of purpose, movement, and stress levels on health and vitality. A key theme that emerges is how, when other pillars of healthy living are strong, breaking common “sleep rules” might not stand in the way of thriving well into old age.
