I tell you about:  One recently published scientific paper on sleep I think is worth knowing about Four other recently published scientific papers on sleep you might find worth reading Some books I\u2019ve been reading and recommend for you Some podcasts I\u2019ve been listening to and recommend for you How I went with the 4 challenges I made in the last  New Normal in Action episode  I invite you to listen to the scientific evidence, experience-based information and real-life stories on this show so you might make choices in leading your life to help you live vibrantly, happily, purposefully, for a long time, disease-free, and above all with a low risk of ever being admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, the place in the hospital I work. Perhaps you might consider a 28 day challenge (or even a 7 day one) yourself. Small steps are important. Incremental change, particularly around habits, can be very beneficial for your health and happiness. &amp;nbsp; Live well, feel well, do well. &amp;nbsp; Dr Andrew Davies &amp;nbsp; ------------------------------------ &amp;nbsp; About the New Normal Project podcast: The podcast is aimed to inspire and empower you to live a life of optimal health, fitness and wellness, by hearing scientific evidence, experience-based information and real-life stories in the areas of the lifestyle pillars such as nutrition, exercise, mindfulness, sleep, connection and purpose. You\u2019ll hopefully glean insights to help you to consider making choices about your daily habits so you become more healthy, fulfilled and conscious. Although I\u2019m a doctor this is not medical advice as I don\u2019t know your personal circumstances or your health conditions. Please see this as general information for you to consider, and then to learn more about, so you can discuss it with your doctor. &amp;nbsp; ------------------------------------ &amp;nbsp; Links to people and other resources (in order of mentioning) Doctors For Nutrition seminar \u201cThe Heart of The Matter\u201d featuring Dr Kim Williams Dr Kim Williams Movie \u201cThe Game Changers\u201d Movie \u201cEating You Alive\u201d Movie \u201cWhat The Health\u201d Scientific paper on sleep duration healthy diet scores and meal patterns J Clin Sleep Med. 2020 Jan 15; 16(1):9-18. doi: 10.5664\/jcsm.8112.
