About this listen
In this episode, we explore how social isolation and loneliness shape your sleep patterns. You'll learn why disconnection triggers the body's stress response, how loneliness keeps the brain in "on alert" mode at night, and why isolation is one of the most overlooked causes of poor sleep—especially in rural communities. Jay breaks down the science and offers simple, realistic ways to rebuild connection and improve sleep quality.
What We Cover:
- How loneliness affects the nervous system
- Why isolated individuals experience lighter, more fragile sleep
- The emotional overload that rises at night
- Why social connection creates a sense of internal safety
- The isolation–sleep feedback loop
- Why rural communities are especially vulnerable
- Simple habits that support connection and better rest
- How tiny social interactions can shift the brain into sleep mode
