Master The Sleep Macros

Dr Matthew Walker has fundamentally influenced how I think about sleep and recovery.

His framework is simple:

Quantity.
Quality.
Regularity.
Timing.

And one of the easiest places to start is regularity.

Try going to bed and waking up at roughly the same time each day—even when the weekend arrives.

Sleep is not wasted time.

It is part of the work.

I highly recommend exploring his original work on sleep, particularly Why We Sleep and his long-form educational content.

You train your body.

You manage your nutrition.

Don’t leave recovery to chance.

Attention Trap

Dr Matthew Walker makes an important point here:

Your phone is not a neutral object.

Many of the apps living inside it are deliberately designed to keep you looking, scrolling and returning.

That connects strongly with something I’ve learned through Sam Harris and meditation:

Attention is something worth protecting.

If you never notice when it has been captured, something else gets to decide where your mind goes next.

His work has heavily influenced how I think about sleep and recovery, and I highly recommend exploring his original work.

Your attention is part of your sovereignty.

Protect it accordingly.

Self-Awareness and Compassion

We all know compassion is important.

But knowing compassion and being compassionate are two very different things.

To truly cultivate compassion requires self-awareness.

There’s an old image of a person carrying two sacks over their shoulders.

The sack hanging in front contains everybody else’s faults.

It’s right there.

Easy to see.

Easy to inspect.

Easy to criticise.

The sack hanging behind contains our own.

We carry it everywhere—

but it’s conveniently out of sight.

Perhaps that’s human nature.

We see impatience in others while overlooking our own.

We notice another person’s ego while remaining oblivious to ours.

We recognise their ignorance but rarely consider the things about which we ourselves remain ignorant.

And that’s the paradox.

How can you recognise something you’re ignorant of?

There are flaws in my character that I can see.

And inevitably others that I cannot.

Blind spots.

Biases.

Conditioning.

Thoughts and behaviours that seem perfectly reasonable from inside my own mind.

Yet I want others to forgive me for them.

Perhaps I should extend them the same courtesy.

This is why self-awareness matters.

Pay attention to your thoughts.

Your desires.

Your impulses.

Your reactions.

Notice the ego.

Notice the judgment.

Notice when you’re impatient, selfish, defensive or simply wrong.

Not to punish yourself.

To understand yourself.

Because the more closely you examine your own sack, the less interested you become in rummaging through everybody else’s.

And from that understanding comes humility.

From humility, patience.

From patience, tolerance.

And from tolerance, compassion.

The next time the urge arises to criticise someone, pause.

Remember your own sack.

You don’t know everything that shaped the person standing before you.

And you don’t completely understand everything that shaped you.

Forgive yourself for being human.

Then extend that same understanding to others.

Understand the self, and you begin to understand everyone else.

We could all afford to be a little kinder.

I Made These on the Fly… Now They’re Staying

Sometimes the best recipes come from throwing together what you already have and seeing what happens.

These high-protein pumpkin chicken bites turned out far better than I expected.

Chicken breast, eggs, pumpkin, Grana Padano, onion, garlic, cumin, turmeric, salt and a little olive oil.

Everything into the food processor.

Blend.

Spoon into a tray.

Bake at 200°C for around 30 minutes.

Done.

Crispy on the outside.

Soft and juicy through the middle.

And if you divide the mixture into 12, each bite comes in at roughly:

62 calories | 7g protein | 3g carbs | 2.5g fat

But the numbers aren’t really why I like them.

This is simply the kind of food I want to eat:

Real ingredients.

Plenty of protein.

Nutrient-dense.

Easy to prepare.

Easy to take with you.

And easy to repeat.

I’ve eaten them hot straight from the oven and cold from the fridge the next day—and both work brilliantly.

Good nutrition doesn’t need to be complicated. Sometimes you just need real food, a food processor and 30 minutes.

Save this one for your next meal prep.

Are Your Daily Habits Increasing Your Disease Risk?

Professor Thomas Seyfried uses blunt language here, but the underlying message matters.

Poor diet.

Poor sleep.

Physical inactivity.

Chronic stress.

Social isolation.

These habits do not guarantee cancer, but repeated over time they can contribute to the conditions associated with cancer and many other chronic diseases. Global health authorities identify factors such as to***co, alcohol, excess body weight and physical inactivity among important preventable contributors to cancer risk.

Professor Seyfried has strongly influenced how I think about metabolism, mitochondrial health and the biological environment created by our daily choices.

You cannot control every disease.

But you can influence the environment in which your body has to live.
