This is the first time I have left a comment on any podcast. I am grateful for all the helpful advice from Dr. Chatterjee and guests. I would like to mention a group of people who are often overlooked ~ caregivers of disabled children. This role is one without an escape. It is a macro stressor from the time of diagnosis and continues to be macro and micro day in and day out. Their purpose is to care for their child and literally every part of caring for them is smothered with stress. In many cases the care is 24 hrs a day. I thought I would mention; if you know someone caring for a disabled child or don’t know them, your kindness and support would be a beautiful gift to give during the holidays and throughout the year!
What I found works for me, being in the position you mention, is to see that disabled child as a soul who chose to come here to earth to experience just what they are experiencing. I chose to come, to support them. Whether or not you are rolling your eyes at my 'method', it is the ONLY relief I have ever found, and with this 'belief system' tool, I am heppy and enriched. My periods of absolute stress are much shorter, until I can recall my chosen belief system and call on my higher power beloved creator to step in and bear the burden of worry with me, so I am not alone. Peace.
@@blissbrain my best friends youngest son was born with a heart defect & when they did the big open heart surgery at 10 months, they messed up. He came out of it with brain damage. That was beyond traumatic & it wasn’t even my own child. I had discovered Dolores Cannon’s video on life after death & she talked about how some souls choose their disability bc they & especially the care giver can heal so much karma & take a faster track to ascension (that was definitely not verbatim). Whether anyone believes in all that is up to them, obviously. When the time was right, I shared that with her. She cried & it was a good cry ❤️🩹
Wonderful comment. Caregivers often deplete themselves . Seeking support will benefit all. Dont go it alone. 💕sharing your truth with a trusted professional is wise. God Bless all caregivers.
Im 82 , been counselling for 36 yrs,which is my passion and my purpose.I love reading,I love my little garden in my lounge,podcasts are wonderful,you are my favourite,amazing,dr,and human being.I never have enough hours in the day,and in spite of a 41/2 brain concussion op lyr agi .Im healing slowly ,but love life,am so grateful for so much.Faith, hope love and gratitude.Wish you were here in Capetown South Africa.You are the epitome of a magnificent dr. God bless you.
I started doing these game changers this past year. Once the sun goes down after 5pm, I dim the lights, as I prepare a light dinner and I no longer take calls after 7pm . I am back to my mint tea ritual after dinner. I am also getting into a habit of getting off the compter between 7pm- 8pm and I use my last hour before bed to catch up on my yoga and core exercises or reading in bed. I have also been practicing intermitten fasting for three years now and that has been very affective too. Thank you for the wealth of information you always provide on your Podcast. Happy New Year!
This sounds like paradise however I have 2 children who once things settle at 9pm I am making sure the house is tidy, school bags ready, packed lunches made etc etc I give myself me time if not TOO tired at 10pm and have an hour with Netflix. It’s time alone. Hubby usually in bed at 9.30 as he works long hours.
Such a true message. I started this kind of evening routine a few months ago (and managed to do so on most evenings...) I must say that this brought a very broad and general relaxtion in my life. Wow. Very impressive. How far away we are from our real needs in this "modern" world. Evenings without screens is SO GOOD!! Sooo worth it. It's only weird at the beginning. Then it's like "ah yes, that's how we lived before the screens!" ;) God bless you!
My husband was diagnosed with diabetes significant enough for Dr to tell him he couldn't control by diet and was put on Metformin. My husband researched diet and low carb diet and he's now lost weight (he was not hugely overweight) and he is in remission. As a nurse I was amazed that this was possible. He did it himself - the NHS management would not have got him to normal range blood sugar now for over a year.
Cool. I'm not alone in being lied to. I've been researching too. I haven't broken any more bones since I've been off hypothyroid medication. I stopped that medication to stop taking insulin. It's sugar anyhow.
Hi! I’m really happy for your husband. The NHS are now offering some of their diabetic patients a low-calorie diet. It sounds exactly what your husband did. From the NHS website: “There is evidence that eating a low-calorie diet (800 to 1,200 calories a day) on a short-term basis (around 12 weeks) can help with symptoms of type 2 diabetes. And some people have found that their symptoms go into remission. A low-calorie diet is not safe or suitable for everyone with type 2 diabetes, such as people who need to take insulin. So it is important to get medical advice before going on this type of diet.” Diabetes UK has more information on low-calorie diets.
One thing I've learned is we're only as busy as WE make ourselves! If you want more relax or companionship time it's up to you to prioritize and make that time. Which is exactly what I do.
Lots of people are afraid to be alone with their thoughts or not “doing” anything. I find this is especially true with strong extroverts (bc it’s really a continuum). On the other hand, introverts prioritize the quiet and alone time, but they don’t prioritize TURNING THE DRILLING THOUGHTS OFF. So in a sense, they are still too busy in the MIND.
Dr. Chatterjee, would you consider a podcast on chronic fatigue? Some of these solutions seem helpful for it, but it would be wonderful to hear more about addressing more lingering situations.
There have been a number of studies linking gut health with chronic fatigue. I'd recommend a very clean, unprocessed diet, which incorporates good gut promoting properties e.g. sauerkraut, kimichi, yoghurt & especially kefir. Think of ypur gut like a rainforest I.e. you want it to be as biodiverse as possible. There are numerous different strains of probiotics and so when consuming a product, say yoghurt, look at the ingredients to see the different strains it has. As you don't want to populate your rainforest with say just oak trees.

Future video idea: @33:00 you talk about light and how it affects our ability to rest. You mentioned brightness which is a big part. We live across from a shopping center that replaced its natural lighting with an amber glow to bright white LEDs that shine right in our bedroom window. I've noticed these same lights shine in close to 30 different apartments where I live. Around 10 years ago I was told that people who work under florescent lighting most of the day with no natural lighting were developing cancer. I more recently learned that people who are extremely sensitive to EMR (electromagnetic radiation) like in our cell phones, from cell towers or from a internet modem experience sensitivity to florescent lights as one of the first symptoms. The blue light in our phone does something to affect our melatonin production. Anyway, light could be another video!
Learned TONS with your interviews with Dr. Pradip Jamnadas. Applied the practice and it's working. Hope we get another interview with Dr. Jamnadas for 2023. I remember Dr. Jamnadas saying somewhere in the lines of "If we can get into our patient's minds and empower them to do the right thing..then that's MEDICINE". That hit home Dr. Chaterjee. I don't want to JINX things.. but I'll take the chance in sharing with you how both those lectures helped out. All the best sir.
I really like content. But rarely can watch for 2hrs every time. Is it possible to do highlights of discussion under 15 min or so. These are so good but just very long. Thanks much for all you do.
You are in the presence of an offering from a special person. Why ask that special person to change what his wholehearted self does to offer messages to people? Run it in your car. Run it while doing chores. Change yourself. Be grateful.
I've been just breaking each video into 10-15 minute clips myself. I also put in ear buds and listen for longer periods while I clean my house or work on the farm.
The best things really are worth doing the work to find, worth diving deeper than surfing through superficial sound bites. It’s not even reading a book it can be played in the back ground! This is why I worry about the TikTok generation in terms of attention span. It’s going to be even worse for them.
Mint tea wakes u up more than caffeinated black tea.. chamomile is relaxing.. roses.. etc.. but for me a tea that is peach flavored with a dash of brown sugar relaxes me even though its caffeinated. So just do what u love. The scent is importamt for me. Chamomile is equally scented
Dr.Charterjee thank you for your podcasts and the more intergrated approach. Instead of tge throw a drug at it approach. I know someone in need of this approach. She is able to pay privately. Are there private doctors with this approach. And where can I find them. I have googled. But of course I don't know their qualifications. Is there a register?
Many of these suggestions are great. But not about eating. I am absolutely convinced, with it empirically proven in my life, that if I don't eat some healthy snack (especially fiber based) at bedtime, I don't sleep well. For my body/ health, it is just the opposite of this video. If I feel even slight hunger, I will not be able to sleep, or will wake up prematurely with hunger. So now I intentionally have a bite to eat as part of preparation for sleep.
I’m not surprised Dr Chattergee has high compliance from his patience. He’s a phenomenally strong communicator and his ego seems to have been left at the door making it very easy to follow and understand his ideas. Very good self control. Very good empathy
My jaw just dropped when you spoke of people waking up in the middle of the night & can’t go back to sleep. 🙋🏻GUILTY! I do pretty good all day but then often eat cookies or chocolate before bed because I crave something sweet. I really need to work on this. I can’t STAY asleep EVER 😢
I don't eat any sweets before bed and still wake up for 1-2 hours most nights with my mind running. I read inositol and l-theanine can quiet a busy mind. I am about to order some today.
@@bls5160 May be you are sensitive to histamine riche foods. I wake up in the middle of the night, feeling hot and sweating, when I have eaten old cheese, canned fish, sauerkraut, chocolat, nuts, ham.
Incorporating some meditation or brearhwork can help to calm the body down. Waking often in the middle of the night can be a sign that cortisol levels are out of sync or too high. Sometimes it's about looking at what is causing stress and finding a way to reduce it. Hope your sleep patterns return to normal.
Thank you doctor! I’m a 3rd shifter so sleep can be elusive, but I’ve already noticed a difference in my sleep from implementing a few of these changes.
I love your videos and you always have great ideas, advice and guests. I wish you would do shorter, more frequent videos like Dr Eric Berg. A daily video that's short and to the point. You are an awesome Doctor and I learn so much from you. Thanks for caring. 63 year old diabetic beating it with Keto and OMAD.
What’s up with all these people with ADHD wanting Dr. Chattergee to change what he’s doing to fit with their inability to focus and pay attention? You need to work on your problems so you can get more out of his content, the way normal people do. Dr. Berg’s videos are aimed at folks who have limited ability to sustain prolonged critical thinking. They’re at 3rd grade listening level. American 3rd graders are 8 year old children.
I would do rather a longer video jam packed with practical information, than short videos that try too hard to speed things up. That’s not even good for our brains and information processing.
I think this is the most useful video I've seen for a long time! I have recognised relatively recently that I'm lacking purpose and meaning in my life. This video has helped me kniw where to start. I was on the right tracks by thinking I needed to find a weekly course to enjoy. I found more information on here that helped me to understand why I feel the way I do (feeling 'stuck'). Also I have the food sensitivities talked about. Interesting to know stress is a big catalyst in that! Thank you SO VERY much!!
I graduated in medicine 45 years ago and I was clearly better trained than you say you were. I was taught communication skills, active listening, patient centred care, joint decision making ... The difference is that modern docs just don't have time. NHS, US health insurance system, Medicare in Australia all push patients through as quickly as possible and (financially) discourage long consultations. You're just not able to spend the necessary time without blowing out waiting times to get an appointment
I agree with the "hot bath" idea. I've been living with a shower only option for far too long. I've actually considered renting a hotel room for a weekend just so I can get a good restorative soak. Great video, thanks for the ideas.
In 2019 I went to the doctors cuz I was really tired I have fibromyalgia on a regular basis and that makes me really tired. However in the long run after the blood work which I came out perfect on paper. I decided to have myself go through a lung cancer pilot screening project . Within a week I found out I had lung cancer in the very beginning stage. It was found in June. However I wanted to see a better Hospital. It ended up that they didn't believe it was long Catherine left it in me another 4 months. I had surgery December 1st I was up and out of the bed in 2 days and walking Akita dog on the third day. Just because you look great on paper does not mean you don't have other issues. I totally believe in what this gentleman is getting at as well as I'm a avid watcher of dr. Gabor mate. So my bottom line here is do the work these guys are telling you cuz I'm now in 2023 and I'm cancer-free so far
What if you have a CNS injury? I've had CFS for 14 years caused by an anti depressant withdrawal / reinstatement. I was told these drugs were safe. I use a scooter and electric bike. My mobility is ruined. 14 YEARS! IM AMAZED IM STILL ALIVE.
Bravo on breathwork! I'm back to breathwork after many years away from it and it does help immensely with my sleep and tension. Also, meditation helpful , one being the loving kindness meditation. Thanks!
Thank you, Dr. Rangan! I first started watching this video on my cellphone, and found that if I tapped on "Show transcript," I could read one sentence every five minutes or so, auto-generated, which often makes me smile at how inadequate "Auto-generated" text is. On a computer, I tap on the 3 horizontal dots at the right side below the video window to open the transcript. I have played with speech to text for several years now, using the Dragon Dictation software. In an earlier version, I once dictated "I referred this patient to a dermatologist" and Dragon transcribed it as "I referred this patient to a damn pathologist." I almost fell off my chair laughing! Especially because I spent two years training to be a pathologist but switched to Internal Medicine instead. Anyhow, as to the transcript, one line every 5 minutes really doesn't do justice to any video, really. Anyhow, very good to listen to your heartfelt ideas about how we humans are tearing ourselves down mentally and emotionally and with bad habits. No wonder we're tired and worn out, and indeed we are shortening our lifespans with bad habits. Life is always going to have stress; the trick is to not allow anyone to "push your buttons." I had snipped off all the buttons on my shirts so no one can push them! But my wife keeps sewing them back on and keeps pushing them!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I loved this episode, love your voice. What you didn’t discuss was always being tired since COVid. What are the answers. I am only one of thousands maybe millions. Always been an active 77 yr old into health. So much more to my story Re effects since COVid .
Thank you for your videos. They make so much sense to me. A year and a half ago I had a stroke. I’ve made a good recovery in my mobility. However I am unable to swallow. I have severe Dysphagia. I can’t even swallow my own saliva. I turned to drugs. Crack to be precise. I have dug a hole which I have sunk into and getting out of it is becoming impossible. I hate what I have become and I’m very scared that my life will end in disaster very soon. Not being able to eat or drink in a “normal” way, has destroyed my life and I don’t know how to get back on track. But thank you, for your words on your videos.
@Walk a Mile in my shoes , my prayer for you is that wisdom and understanding find you in who , what or how you can over come this dis- order . All the very best for you now and in the future. With best regards.
It is insane that we can have such a powerful information for free. Thank you a lot for pursuing your mission. I appreciate every single podcast. It was life changing for me
I get fatigued just after my first meal of the day, usually around 17 hours after the last meal before. Quite annoying, that fatigues lasts for around 30-60 minutes.
It's the post-prandial dip syndrome, due to the increase of sugar in the blood, which needs to be dealt with. When the body is in digestion-mode, especially after a heavy meal, the energy required doesn't leave enough for the brain to work properly, and that's why we're sort of falling in a dip.
Well said re. Doctors and communication - it is vital and has been sadly lacking in past and often present practice. Hopefully future practice can change.
I implement almost all of these protocols but PTSD is far stronger. He's a great doctor though, I love his books. I'd love a video with targeted advice for those with a macro-stressor on the go, more than 'just life', as it were.
Sleep therapists that specialize in PTSD know they have to deal with hyperarousal and flashbacks/triggers, and have modules to address them. Try the PTSD Insomnia Workbook by Thompson and Franklin as well.
Great work. Some really good info here. Sometimes we as humans just need to be told the truth. Thanks for taking the time to educate us on things that actually work. Happy new year.
Thank you ! You are fantastic about what you teach but,for ne at least, the way you say the things. You are sure of yourself but not agressive, your convinsing. You are easy to understand. You made me realise a lot of things about our brain,the way it works is so different from what always thought. Thank you so much for lighting my mind !
Consider another powerful relaxation and sleep induction technique. That being stretching to precipitate deep breathing with the goal to induce yawning which is very useful to precipitate sleep at bedtime. Self induction of yawning is a simple, pleasant technique that can be used effectively at any time to reduce stress.
My personal sleep routine? I never NEVER eat any spicy food or even spaghetti with sauce after 5pm. Eat the lunch as your big meal and very small nonspicy dinner. I always drink a glass of milk or half glass of buttermilk right before bed. Spicy foods keep me turning and tossing all night. My personal experiences.
Rangan, thank you for the time and effort you put into this video. It's like a free audio book packed with practical advice for responding to my own fatigue and burnout. 🙏
I love your video and I love when you are making a notation that is so important bravo I know some people want a short video for me that does not work do your video the way you always do it and your guest the same again bravo👏🏻
We are blessed to have you and your guests making this information and insight available to us....present your videos just as the presentations work for you and we can adjust how we listen...❤
Thank you so much for the great video! This is so informative and full of incredible insight. I wear blue blocker non prescription glasses at night when the sun goes down. They’re high quality from Warby Parker; I used to wear them all of the time when I was an admin and infront of a computer all day. I think they do help (like your Amber glasses) key a lot of the blue light out of my eyes and help me unwind. I even wear them to evening movies. They really help. I love all of the points that you touched in this video. I really learned a lot from this. I’m so grateful for your video. Thank you so much.💚
This video made me buy two amber sleep lights for night time. Excited to find out if the no blue light, much less green light will affect my quality of sleep at night. Only one step, though, more things to work on.
@@stephaniesamra7960 I think it's still something to understand from listening. If you don't want to spend almost 2 hours listening there is a transcript for podcasts . Unde the video ,click more and keep scrolling until you find transcript. You can read fast what is in the podcast.
After listening to you and your other podcast. I have started eating healthy. No carbs only organic chicken and organic eggs,nuts and veg. But I feel I'm getting more chronic back pain. But my cravings are finished.
I've suffered from a back pain for many years. Worth checking the quality and importantly firmness of your mattress. Stretching is super important I find. First thing in the morning and evening. Also sauna/jacuzzi work wonders too.
I am really grateful that you have given such a valuable information about health. Good food, good life and work routine and health is everything in our life. Thank you so much for really really excellent information.
I read about a regime 30+ years ago from the British Midwives association called the " FORESIGHT" Program. Its intention was to assist with fertility - however, as a Clinical Psych student, we all had to follow it for a semester to learn about various methods of relaxation. It included many of the wise aspects you covered here. Looking back, I realise it was the most refreshing SLEEP I have ever enjoyed! I also accidentally fell pregnant, so I can totally attest to the fertility aspects as well! Another piece of the Foresight program that made it even more effective was eating high quality, fresh food - organic where possible. Particularly proteins ( eggs/fish/cheese/chicken/milk ). I felt lighter and my system was less taxed. After about 14 days, my RAS got into the groove. Your podcast has reminded me of a fantastic time of self-care that I could absolutely get into! Thank you for that.
I never have a problem GOING to sleep, probably cause I don't go to bed till my eyes start closing on me. It's STAYING asleep is my problem. I usually wake up at least two times a night. It could be a bathroom thing. I just figure might ad well go long ad I'm awake anyway.
Hi u are amazing doctor what u said true a lot people they talk about money living cost bills about they kids they grow they won't listen I am single mum who go through divorce nearly 2year ago I got kids very young because my husband divorce and left me with 3 kids in UK it's was hard I never had anxiety my life as after what happened I get and also having sleeping problems because I was stressed a lot but now I cut that down when it comes to evening I play with my kids games have bath and cold milk or cold water no think great advice doctor
The video is really helpful and it has helped me to find many answers about myself. Such deep mindful conversation proved to a pleasure activity for me today😇
I don't have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep.... I could sleep 12 hours and still feel exhausted almost like I didn't even sleep at all. I have FSHD muscular Dystrophy, IBS-D, and anxiety/depression

Beetroot, spinach and celery smoothie. Iron galore for weary humans. Plus quality protein.
I think all this started when we got the electric light, allowing 24 hours to do things we couldn’t do before electricity.
And gets amplified with the blue light of our screens.

I really like content. But rarely can watch for 2hrs every time. Is it possible to do highlights of discussion under 15 min or so. These are so good but just very long. Thanks much for all you do.
You are in the presence of an offering from a special person. Why ask that special person to change what his wholehearted self does to offer messages to people? Run it in your car. Run it while doing chores. Change yourself. Be grateful.
I've been just breaking each video into 10-15 minute clips myself. I also put in ear buds and listen for longer periods while I clean my house or work on the farm.
The best things really are worth doing the work to find, worth diving deeper than surfing through superficial sound bites. It’s not even reading a book it can be played in the back ground!
This is why I worry about the TikTok generation in terms of attention span. It’s going to be even worse for them.
I started listening while driving home from work, now continuing while fixing up the kitchen tap 😅
I think it's selfish and a lack of respect for our time. Basically it's wordy and preachy and not succinct.
Mint tea wakes u up more than caffeinated black tea.. chamomile is relaxing.. roses.. etc.. but for me a tea that is peach flavored with a dash of brown sugar relaxes me even though its caffeinated. So just do what u love. The scent is importamt for me. Chamomile is equally scented
Dr.Charterjee thank you for your podcasts and the more intergrated approach. Instead of tge throw a drug at it approach. I know someone in need of this approach. She is able to pay privately. Are there private doctors with this approach. And where can I find them. I have googled. But of course I don't know their qualifications. Is there a register?
Many of these suggestions are great. But not about eating. I am absolutely convinced, with it empirically proven in my life, that if I don't eat some healthy snack (especially fiber based) at bedtime, I don't sleep well. For my body/ health, it is just the opposite of this video. If I feel even slight hunger, I will not be able to sleep, or will wake up prematurely with hunger. So now I intentionally have a bite to eat as part of preparation for sleep.
Less screen is fostering better sleep. Please Chatter ji, consider sharing your gems in a more compact format.
Totally appreciate you as a doctor how you share and teach and what you share and teach.. God bless you ❤️🙌🙏🙏🙏
God bless you and family..Most young and old couples need to watch this videos..Best wishes...
I’m not surprised Dr Chattergee has high compliance from his patience. He’s a phenomenally strong communicator and his ego seems to have been left at the door making it very easy to follow and understand his ideas. Very good self control. Very good empathy
My jaw just dropped when you spoke of people waking up in the middle of the night & can’t go back to sleep. 🙋🏻GUILTY! I do pretty good all day but then often eat cookies or chocolate before bed because I crave something sweet. I really need to work on this. I can’t STAY asleep EVER 😢
I don't eat any sweets before bed and still wake up for 1-2 hours most nights with my mind running. I read inositol and l-theanine can quiet a busy mind. I am about to order some today.
@@bls5160 May be you are sensitive to histamine riche foods. I wake up in the middle of the night, feeling hot and sweating, when I have eaten old cheese, canned fish, sauerkraut, chocolat, nuts, ham.
Zolpidem.
Water helps to reduce that sugar crave
Incorporating some meditation or brearhwork can help to calm the body down. Waking often in the middle of the night can be a sign that cortisol levels are out of sync or too high. Sometimes it's about looking at what is causing stress and finding a way to reduce it. Hope your sleep patterns return to normal.
Thank you doctor! I’m a 3rd shifter so sleep can be elusive, but I’ve already noticed a difference in my sleep from implementing a few of these changes.
Last post- I’m a doll collector, writer, and family researcher. Find your passion ❤. Yes 🎉
I love your videos and you always have great ideas, advice and guests. I wish you would do shorter, more frequent videos like Dr Eric Berg. A daily video that's short and to the point. You are an awesome Doctor and I learn so much from you. Thanks for caring. 63 year old diabetic beating it with Keto and OMAD.
Agree, shorter would be better. He gives great information, but I get I interrupted while listening and have to listen another time.
Same thing i told him many times
What’s up with all these people with ADHD wanting Dr. Chattergee to change what he’s doing to fit with their inability to focus and pay attention? You need to work on your problems so you can get more out of his content, the way normal people do. Dr. Berg’s videos are aimed at folks who have limited ability to sustain prolonged critical thinking. They’re at 3rd grade listening level. American 3rd graders are 8 year old children.
I would do rather a longer video jam packed with practical information, than short videos that try too hard to speed things up. That’s not even good for our brains and information processing.
I just love you!! Classic music is life! I can work better, think better, and be grateful for life
love your videos and your holistic view on health. That's the different between an average doctor and a great doctor.
I think this is the most useful video I've seen for a long time! I have recognised relatively recently that I'm lacking purpose and meaning in my life. This video has helped me kniw where to start. I was on the right tracks by thinking I needed to find a weekly course to enjoy. I found more information on here that helped me to understand why I feel the way I do (feeling 'stuck'). Also I have the food sensitivities talked about. Interesting to know stress is a big catalyst in that! Thank you SO VERY much!!
Thank you Dr. This has been so helpful! God bless you & your family always.
I graduated in medicine 45 years ago and I was clearly better trained than you say you were. I was taught communication skills, active listening, patient centred care, joint decision making ... The difference is that modern docs just don't have time. NHS, US health insurance system, Medicare in Australia all push patients through as quickly as possible and (financially) discourage long consultations. You're just not able to spend the necessary time without blowing out waiting times to get an appointment
I agree with the "hot bath" idea. I've been living with a shower only option for far too long. I've actually considered renting a hotel room for a weekend just so I can get a good restorative soak.
Great video, thanks for the ideas.
In 2019 I went to the doctors cuz I was really tired I have fibromyalgia on a regular basis and that makes me really tired. However in the long run after the blood work which I came out perfect on paper. I decided to have myself go through a lung cancer pilot screening project . Within a week I found out I had lung cancer in the very beginning stage. It was found in June. However I wanted to see a better Hospital. It ended up that they didn't believe it was long Catherine left it in me another 4 months. I had surgery December 1st I was up and out of the bed in 2 days and walking Akita dog on the third day. Just because you look great on paper does not mean you don't have other issues. I totally believe in what this gentleman is getting at as well as I'm a avid watcher of dr. Gabor mate. So my bottom line here is do the work these guys are telling you cuz I'm now in 2023 and I'm cancer-free so far
Blessings...so wonderful you listened to your mind and body that wanted you to Live and gave you Warnings....🎉listening saved you life!!!😊
What if you have a CNS injury? I've had CFS for 14 years caused by an anti depressant withdrawal / reinstatement. I was told these drugs were safe. I use a scooter and electric bike. My mobility is ruined. 14 YEARS! IM AMAZED IM STILL ALIVE.
Dr Chatterjee, I really loved this conversation. There is so much truth in what you are saying.
Bravo on breathwork! I'm back to breathwork after many years away from it and it does help immensely with my sleep and tension. Also, meditation helpful , one being the loving kindness meditation. Thanks!
Thank you Doctor.You are a blessing to humanity.God bless
Thank you, Dr. Rangan! I first started watching this video on my cellphone, and found that if I tapped on "Show transcript," I could read one sentence every five minutes or so, auto-generated, which often makes me smile at how inadequate "Auto-generated" text is. On a computer, I tap on the 3 horizontal dots at the right side below the video window to open the transcript. I have played with speech to text for several years now, using the Dragon Dictation software. In an earlier version, I once dictated "I referred this patient to a dermatologist" and Dragon transcribed it as "I referred this patient to a damn pathologist." I almost fell off my chair laughing! Especially because I spent two years training to be a pathologist but switched to Internal Medicine instead. Anyhow, as to the transcript, one line every 5 minutes really doesn't do justice to any video, really.
Anyhow, very good to listen to your heartfelt ideas about how we humans are tearing ourselves down mentally and emotionally and with bad habits. No wonder we're tired and worn out, and indeed we are shortening our lifespans with bad habits. Life is always going to have stress; the trick is to not allow anyone to "push your buttons." I had snipped off all the buttons on my shirts so no one can push them! But my wife keeps sewing them back on and keeps pushing them!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Lol!! We all need to remember that humor covers lots of situations we cannot control😂
I loved this episode, love your voice.
What you didn’t discuss was always being tired since COVid. What are the answers. I am only one of thousands maybe millions. Always been an active 77 yr old into health. So much more to my story Re effects since COVid .
Thank you for your videos. They make so much sense to me.
A year and a half ago I had a stroke. I’ve made a good recovery in my mobility. However I am unable to swallow. I have severe Dysphagia. I can’t even swallow my own saliva. I turned to drugs. Crack to be precise. I have dug a hole which I have sunk into and getting out of it is becoming impossible. I hate what I have become and I’m very scared that my life will end in disaster very soon.
Not being able to eat or drink in a “normal” way, has destroyed my life and I don’t know how to get back on track. But thank you, for your words on your videos.
@Walk a Mile in my shoes , my prayer for you is that wisdom and understanding find you in who , what or how you can over come this dis- order . All the very best for you now and in the future. With best regards.
@@oiputthatback7361 😘
Sending prayers for your recovery and strength and positivity to you to get through this....❤
What are great information. Thanks you very much for your work. You are saver. ❤
Wonderful. Thank you
Thank you for this simple yet we somehow forget.
Take care everybody.!
It is insane that we can have such a powerful information for free. Thank you a lot for pursuing your mission. I appreciate every single podcast. It was life changing for me
Dear Mr Chatterjee, your podcast is absolutely great and very useful and I thank you very much for this content, where I am learning a lot!
Love the alarm idea!!! That you for ALL the valuable information.
Love the rules idea too!!!
Tea ritual! Love this!
I love the part with Rich Roll. That guy is the super partner in an interview: 2 amusing parners
I get fatigued just after my first meal of the day, usually around 17 hours after the last meal before. Quite annoying, that fatigues lasts for around 30-60 minutes.
It's the post-prandial dip syndrome, due to the increase of sugar in the blood, which needs to be dealt with. When the body is in digestion-mode, especially after a heavy meal, the energy required doesn't leave enough for the brain to work properly, and that's why we're sort of falling in a dip.
MSG
@@Misslotusification so do we need to control our sugar intake? I don't think that it must be a syndrome its just a process.
@@rahul-rz5uj Controling sugar/insulin is absolutely crucial.
Why not just take a nap for 30 min? Then you are energized again for the rest of the day.
Thank you so much for this video content!
At 3am I wake up to use the bathroom and sleep, I eat beans mixed with oats and raw garlic. Then, it helped me to fall back asleep.
Thank you so much for this wise and valuable information !! Dr. Chatterjee you are such a treasure !!
Perfect timing for me on this topic, Dr. C! 👍💚🤟
Any thoughts on when you are struggling to stay awake until bedtime?
Well said re. Doctors and communication - it is vital and has been sadly lacking in past and often present practice. Hopefully future practice can change.
I ve stopped being tired after your last video. Can’t wait to hear what you ve got for us🙏✨
What video did you see??
@@woodfloorsjohnny the 7 signs of burnout and an action plan, the title was sg like "you re not lazy.."
@@hyperfreshspace7943 thank you..👍🙏
@@woodfloorsjohnny thanks to Dr. Rangan!
I am tired during the day... It's 1:20 a.m., and I am wide awake
2:01 am for me. Just cannot fall asleep
Great information thank you. Wish it wasn’t 2 hr long…. Is there a shorter version with the key points ..thanks 🙏🏼
Brilliant man
I implement almost all of these protocols but PTSD is far stronger. He's a great doctor though, I love his books. I'd love a video with targeted advice for those with a macro-stressor on the go, more than 'just life', as it were.
Sleep therapists that specialize in PTSD know they have to deal with hyperarousal and flashbacks/triggers, and have modules to address them. Try the PTSD Insomnia Workbook by Thompson and Franklin as well.
Truly a holistic approach !!
Great work. Some really good info here. Sometimes we as humans just need to be told the truth. Thanks for taking the time to educate us on things that actually work. Happy new year.
Thank you ! You are fantastic about what you teach but,for ne at least, the way you say the things. You are sure of yourself but not agressive, your convinsing. You are easy to understand. You made me realise a lot of things about our brain,the way it works is so different from what always thought. Thank you so much for lighting my mind !
Consider another powerful relaxation and sleep induction technique. That being stretching to precipitate deep breathing with the goal to induce yawning which is very useful to precipitate sleep at bedtime. Self induction of yawning is a simple, pleasant technique that can be used effectively at any time to reduce stress.
You are One of my Heroes!!! Thank you so much ❤️ dear sir, for what you do! And much love and appreciation ❤️
It's good information
My personal sleep routine? I never NEVER eat any spicy food or even spaghetti with sauce after 5pm. Eat the lunch as your big meal and very small nonspicy dinner. I always drink a glass of milk or half glass of buttermilk right before bed. Spicy foods keep me turning and tossing all night. My personal experiences.
Thank you for these tips.. will try!!! And continued blessings prayed for you❤
Rangan, thank you for the time and effort you put into this video. It's like a free audio book packed with practical advice for responding to my own fatigue and burnout. 🙏
Excellent program
I love your video and I love when you are making a notation that is so important bravo I know some people want a short video for me that does not work do your video the way you always do it and your guest the same again bravo👏🏻
We are blessed to have you and your guests making this information and insight available to us....present your videos just as the presentations work for you and we can adjust how we listen...❤
Brilliant video thank u so much Doc👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽♥️♥️♥️♥️😊
Thank you so much for the great video! This is so informative and full of incredible insight. I wear blue blocker non prescription glasses at night when the sun goes down. They’re high quality from Warby Parker; I used to wear them all of the time when I was an admin and infront of a computer all day. I think they do help (like your Amber glasses) key a lot of the blue light out of my eyes and help me unwind. I even wear them to evening movies. They really help. I love all of the points that you touched in this video. I really learned a lot from this. I’m so grateful for your video. Thank you so much.💚
And are so many of us around the globe❤
This video made me buy two amber sleep lights for night time. Excited to find out if the no blue light, much less green light will affect my quality of sleep at night. Only one step, though, more things to work on.
Thank you for this information.
Thank you very much for the recommendations. Many greetings from Germany.
SLEEP
Safe = dim, soft music, quiet, calm, intimacy
Rest, relax, slow down, easy
Breathe, gratitude
Fast, microbiome, long meal
Self = pleasure, beauty
Refresh = read, create, walk
List = erase mind = do, worry
Priority, improve, thrive
Nice one - thanks. Saves me 1 hour and 55 mins of listening 😂
@@stephaniesamra7960 I think it's still something to understand from listening. If you don't want to spend almost 2 hours listening there is a transcript for podcasts . Unde the video ,click more and keep scrolling until you find transcript. You can read fast what is in the podcast.
This really needs timestamps/chapters
Thanks Dr.Rangan I appreciate how you teach and demonstrate to me I understand cleary , others have same citutations God blessed 🙌
After listening to you and your other podcast. I have started eating healthy. No carbs only organic chicken and organic eggs,nuts and veg. But I feel I'm getting more chronic back pain.
But my cravings are finished.
I've suffered from a back pain for many years. Worth checking the quality and importantly firmness of your mattress.
Stretching is super important I find. First thing in the morning and evening. Also sauna/jacuzzi work wonders too.
@@HAL9000_ICantDoThat do you want the mattress firm or not?
@Public Service Announcement Personally I think you want it to be fairly firm. It's the support you need in the right places
Beautiful 🎉
I am really grateful that you have given such a valuable information about health. Good food, good life and work routine and health is everything in our life. Thank you so much for really really excellent information.
Yes....thank you so very very much❤
I love Dr. C. And he s such a sweetie too.
I need help with my sugar addiction!
Anyone have ideas ?
Stay blessed
I cannot thank you enough for sharing these thoughts. I have started to implement most of these and I feel so much more positive and rested.
Great videos! I love your stuff
Thank you doc for this simple reminder and offering us choice’s that we can explore to see which one is good for us.
Ty for making so simple and practical for us
This might be a game changer !
I call it “the peace hour”
Most wonderful video. Quite useful
Any watch that and have a time stamp?
Why this has only 342k views, it’s a summary of a really healthy lifestyle
I read about a regime 30+ years ago from the British Midwives association called the " FORESIGHT" Program. Its intention was to assist with fertility - however, as a Clinical Psych student, we all had to follow it for a semester to learn about various methods of relaxation. It included many of the wise aspects you covered here. Looking back, I realise it was the most refreshing SLEEP I have ever enjoyed! I also accidentally fell pregnant, so I can totally attest to the fertility aspects as well! Another piece of the Foresight program that made it even more effective was eating high quality, fresh food - organic where possible. Particularly proteins ( eggs/fish/cheese/chicken/milk ). I felt lighter and my system was less taxed. After about 14 days, my RAS got into the groove. Your podcast has reminded me of a fantastic time of self-care that I could absolutely get into! Thank you for that.
Great that it awakened those great memories for you❤
I never have a problem GOING to sleep, probably cause I don't go to bed till my eyes start closing on me. It's STAYING asleep is my problem. I usually wake up at least two times a night. It could be a bathroom thing. I just figure might ad well go long ad I'm awake anyway.
Gonna get fatigued watching a 2 hour video on fatigue , surely you can summarise this in less time.
Hi u are amazing doctor what u said true a lot people they talk about money living cost bills about they kids they grow they won't listen I am single mum who go through divorce nearly 2year ago I got kids very young because my husband divorce and left me with 3 kids in UK it's was hard I never had anxiety my life as after what happened I get and also having sleeping problems because I was stressed a lot but now I cut that down when it comes to evening I play with my kids games have bath and cold milk or cold water no think great advice doctor
My hero parry never tired.
I put blue light on tablet and listen to asmr reiki, or asmr, sometimes Sasquatch chronicles, just when I start to feel a hint of drowsiness.
As a widowed father of 4 I'm exhausted all the time. My rest and relaxation time happens when my kids are finally asleep at night.
The video is really helpful and it has helped me to find many answers about myself. Such deep mindful conversation proved to a pleasure activity for me today😇
I don't have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep.... I could sleep 12 hours and still feel exhausted almost like I didn't even sleep at all. I have FSHD muscular Dystrophy, IBS-D, and anxiety/depression
Thank you so much Dr. Ragan for your valuable guidance 🙏. Love and respects from India.
I'm so grateful to you.
