Why You Wake Up Tired After 8 Hours of Sleep
Settled: Nervous System Tools for Anxiety, Burnout & Sleep by Maya Sloane
Episode notes
You did everything right. Went to bed on time. Stayed asleep. Woke up feeling like you barely slept at all. That bone-deep morning exhaustion isn't about your sleep habits. It's about what your nervous system is doing while you're unconscious.
A 2019 study out of the University of Toyama found that the first 30 minutes of sleep can determine whether the entire night actually restores you. What they discovered about autonomic activity during that window changes everything.
