  • Summary

  • Hosted by sleep expert Dr Sophie Bostock, Sleep On gives listeners the tips and tools needed to get a better night's rest. We will discover how some of the most successful, busy people balance sleep with the demands of life.

    Squash Falconer is an adventure lover. In 2011, she became one of the elite of climbing and reached the summit of the highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest. Prior to this, she was the first British woman to launch a paraglider off the summit of Mont Blanc (after motorbiking all the way from England to the foot of the mountain). She discusses how sleep and recovery affect her performance on expeditions. We find out how altitude, extreme cold and adrenaline affect sleep and how tactics to conquer sleep in a hostile environment can be used in everyday life.

    Sleep On series 2 is brought to you by The Sleep Charity and sponsored by The National Bed Federation.
