Shawn Stevenson is one of the world's leading educators in sleep biology, human performance and environmental physiology. His work asks a confronting question: If you're doing everything right, why do so many people still feel like something is missing? The answer, has less to do with effort and everything to do with environment. Human biology evolved in constant dialogue with the natural world. Light and darkness. Movement and rest. Predictable rhythms the body learned to depend on. In just a few generations, that environment has changed faster than our biology can keep pace with. Artificial light extends the day indefinitely. Screens and stimulation follow us everywhere. And the body, still operating on ancient signals, quietly struggles to stay aligned. Shawn's work explores what this mismatch means for modern wellbeing and what we can do about it. |
