Insomnia and Breathing

The Wellbeing Lab with Will Young

19-04-2022 • 40 mins

It’s a great episode this week. It’s insomnia, it’s breathing, it’s fascinating.


My first guest is Dr Hugh Selsick, a consultant in psychiatry and sleep medicine who runs a sleep clinic at the Royal London Hospital. Dr Hugh busts some common myths around treating insomnia and Domino snores the whole way through! I also speak to James Nestor who is an author and science journalist. He taught me a lot about the art of breathing and the science that backs it up.


If you have questions or comments about any of the episodes so far, you can contact the podcast on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, or you can email hello@wellbeinglabpodcast.com. I'd love to hear from you.


Here are some useful links and resources:

Dr Hugh recommends this free app for insomnia treatment, as well as these three books on the topic.

Here's more info about James Nestor's best-selling book Breath.

And here's all the info for MY new book Be Yourself and Happier.
