Welcome to Proper Mental episode 56 and my guest this week is Nick Littlehales, an author and coach who specialises in sleep.
He is considered the world lead in this area, working with the likes of Manchester United, Liverpool, Team Sky and a host of sports clubs and teams at the highest level.
He can now add being a guest of Proper Mental to that impressive list!
Nick and I chat about his work and discuss all things sleep. Nick might work with some of the best athletes in the world but his approach to sleep can be adopted by anyone.
We talk about what’s needed for quality sleep and how to get more of it. We chat about why we all struggle with sleep when it’s such a natural and important process and we chat about how changing your perspective and introducing some new habits can make it easier to actually get some.
We don’t talk about sleep problems or negative side effects; this is all positive information with actionable ideas to help you get some sleep.
This was an incredible conversation!
There is so much here that will genuinely help you to improve your sleep patterns and I can’t wait for you to hear it!
