Shop: [Systems and Products](https://ees.shop/) Michael and Roland break down sleep, the most overlooked pillar of health, and the small environmental shifts that quietly wreck it. Michael opens up about his own lifelong struggle to fall asleep, from raver years to trying everything from THC to pharmaceuticals, landing on a magnesium and amino acid stack that finally worked. Roland steps in with the bigger picture: humans sleep 90 minutes less than they did 25 years ago, and most of it comes down to circadian rhythm disruption from blue light, screens, and a culture that treats rest as optional. From there, the two dig into EMF as an overlooked sleep disruptor, with real stories from Roland's work with pro athletes: one whose recovery score jumped just from wearing blue-light glasses, another whose sleep and dreaming returned after his home's EMF levels were addressed. They close with practical, low-cost fixes anyone can start tonight, from cooling the bedroom to protecting your bed as a sleep-only space. **Chapters**
