Do you find yourself forgetting things every now and then saying to yourself “I can’t remember, I don’t know where I put it. I just don’t remember.”
Well, forgetting things every now and then is normal because there is such an inflow of information and some of the stuff doesn’t really get into your brain properly. And there is such an overflow of it and if we don’t internalize it, it’s not there, but that is very normal. I’m sure you’ve been in that situation tons of times because most people have.

Today I want to talk about sleep.
You know life on earth is adapted to the rotation of our planet, and we have known for many years that we, as humans, have clocks that work with this regular cycle of the the planet turning around itself. So we have these body clocks but how does it work? That’s not something that we’ve really known. I’m from Sweden and in Sweden we have the Nobel Prize, I’m not sure you know about it but here it’s a big thing and I usually hear about it every year and there are all these prizes for scientists who’ve done things that most of us don’t understand.

Some of my clients are not sure they have the right job, they don’t feel the right connection to it and that can be very stressful. Have you ever felt like that? A disconnect?

Imagine the perfect workday: Everything goes smoothly, you reach your goals and everyone is very content with what comes out of it. Your clients are just amazed by what you’re doing and there is no complaints at all.

They don’t reach their deadlines and when they don’t get their deadlines, you don’t get your deadlines. And you are the one that is responsible for it, it’s kind of your fault. Or at least that’s the feeling you get.

Today I want to talk about something that’s really close to my heart. It’s the question; Why do so many people get stressed out and even get sick from it?
Even though we know so much there are still so many solutions out there. There are literally endless solutions out there, but it’s still the fastest growing disease maker in the world right now.
