If you’re over 60 and have tried everything to sleep better, are you supposed to just accept it?
Kirsten Taylor, a nutritionist, naturopath and sleep practitioner, and founder of SleepDrops, has spent 23 years helping people of all ages, including people in their 90s, get back to sleep. She tells Hannah McQueen why poor sleep is rarely one unfixable thing. They cover how your body clock works, simple changes that cost next to nothing, building a wind-down routine, magnesium, and why women and men switch off so differently. Kirsten also shares three things you can start this week.
