Doc Parsley's Sleep Remedy: www.docparsley.com/jocko
After serving with the SEALs, Doc entered medical school at the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences (USUHS) in Bethesda. Doc graduated in 2004, 1 year after the birth of his third child. He interned in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Balboa Naval Hospital San Diego in 2005 and subsequently completed a Navy residency in Hyperbarics and Diving Medicine in 2006.
From 2009 to 2013, Doc served as an Undersea Medical Officer at Naval Special Warfare Group One. While there, he led the development of and supervised the group’s first Sports Medicine Rehabilitation center. Doc saw firsthand the effect that low sleep and high stress had on the young SEALs who were under his care, men who he realized looked a whole lot like himself just a few years before. It was during this time that he began to develop the all-natural Sleep Remedy that is now the supplement of choice for Navy SEALs, pro athletes, C-level executives, and thousands of others. Henry, now Sleep Remedy's CFO, was one of the first to experience the life altering impact of Sleep Remedy.
It's always the sleep podcasts where I stay up super late to keep watching and learn more about sleep lmao
*Jocko Willink is the Reluctant Leader we need.* .....We know you've done enough, but your Nation needs you. 🇺🇸 *2024* 🦅
Would be better than both of these old twats for sure He won’t run tho, he said it multiple times
Maybe 20 years ago, too late now.
The left would put him on blast and totally disrespect him, treat him like damaged goods like they did Admiral Stockdale when he ran with Perot.
@@SGobuck I'm ashamed of the way both parties have treated veterans. Especially our Representatives who served. I think its because they support the Constitution first and foremost, rather than being partisan.
There is a lot of great things in the world. But sitting on a river bank fishing, drinking a beer and playing some guitars and listening to jocko podcast would be sweet. But it’s January in iowa. Brr but living the good life. Just wanted to say thanks for all the military men And woman serving our great country the USA. Just because.
Hell yea, iowa
I am in Iowa too good to know there are other people that enjoy this in my area
Jocko sleeps with a pillow under his gun 😂🤣. Needed Theo Von with the Doc on that one. Great clip as always from this channel
1:11:45 "The question isn't whether you can get in; the question is would you go if you got in?" Very powerful question!
Jocko ‘s podcasts are five star. They are my go to podcasts. I too had episodes of vertigo that were terrible two years ago. After a lot of prayer, they completely went away.
God Bless Doc Parsley for figuring that out. What a smart individual. Thanks for having him on the channel Jocko. Good job guys 👍
Thanks for putting this episode on, it's very beneficial to me being in the trades.
Thank you for taking the time to share your story and interventions Dr. Parsley. Top tier podcast. Most excellent gentlemen. Thank you Jocko and Echo Charles. Cheers
Such a fantastic conversation. Loved hearing Dr Parsley’s story. So interesting to see themes weaved into his life.
Instructive-especially for those of us who have to remote work in different time zones so sleep is continually disrupted. Horizontal meditation as productive rest is a great strategy. Thank y'all.
Thank you all. 🙏🏼
AmazIng POD.. I live in Kemah Tx now and Dr Kirk has some cool Story’s of Life☯️😎👊
have an alternative hypothesis for Dr. Parseley . its also has to do with performance /metabolic response to Diet and aging . long story short I was really fit around 2014-2017 getting into trouble 2019 although I was not taking pharmaceutical drugs I was drinking and taking recreational drugs . well in 2019 I got into more trouble and spent the great majority of the following 4 years in prison sleeping often /not working out /unless forced to living off two sandwitches /one hot meal(pasta and spam) although I was going through an arduous mental gauntlet with court and politics I was able to maintain a positive spirit/ attitude and just focused my time on preserving my "energy " and whatever muscle mass I still had. by this time 2021 I was down to 6 pull ups and 10 dips . by 2022 I was down to 5 dips and 0 pull ups . fluctuating between 180-210lbs . A major concern of mine was recovery and rehabilitation after too much time in atrophy. I managed to maintain a decent calisthenic workout routine during my last year . Well upon release I weighed 190lbs and started logging my weight . my main staple for protein was chicken and I quickly jumped right back to 210 and even reached 215lbs . Im Mexican American and sports medicine and performance research has always been my main pass time. I was training on the SFAS program ,power lifting and read cognitive enhancement and performance journals" MTAAC" ,books and whatever I could find. As a fit Mexican-American I have always been aware of the threat of obesity in my community especially after the age of 30 . Well this happened to my surprise I stated reading pre-colonial history and Spanish conquest in prison and remembered that the Spanish brought horses and other live stock and herbs, after some digging I was able to trace the first trade routes and "discoveries" and trade goods the Spanish encountered when circumnavigating the earth for the first time inn the 15000 . Fruits and veggies weren't consumed on ships until it was discovered that you could stayve off scurvy and drop the death rates ,becoming a main staple of North American diets !!!!!! anyhow that's my theory that Diets (not customary from a genetic adaptation standpoint) has a more expressive effect on the body after the age of 30 . Im currently on a restrictive Diet of only Native Plants and Fauna anyway ill like Dr, Parsleys take on this theory . I want to test it but money is scarce / Im still fresh out so im doing what I can for now. Maybe Dr, Parsley can get the navy to study and test this?Thanks !!!!!
Really loved this episode also as far as seeing at night I've learned that some people myself included see better at night than during the day.
Very interesting. Great info, thanks Doc.
I’m the same way Jocko, don’t like going to the doctor unless it’s severely needed. Back in August of 2022, had a few episodes of flare up of my gallbladder. Turned out had a few stones, so had it surgically removed before it got worse. Now I’m doing better, still awaiting full recovery. Thanks for another episode Jocko and Echo!
Great video. Thanks
Thank you for your service gentlemen. I'm 38 and experiencing the same problems. Not a vet of course but I have severe insomnia issues and my Dr started me on a low dose of T. Suggested that low t is why I have insomnia. Essentially the opposite of your Diagnosis. Now im 😟 worried. I want off of anything unnatural!! 😩
You had vertigo. He did the epsley maneuver on you. I can’t believe you waited that long! Vertigo is super scary. When I first woke up with it I was freaking out, I googled it and found that maneuver two days later, and did the head position thing and it went away. I was so happy.
Yeah I learned this as well. That when you lay in bed and you can't sleep don't say to yourself "Omg I can't sleep etc.." Just say to yourself "great now I have time to just lay down with closed eyes and relax, meditate by focusing on my slow and deep breathing." Just this alone will lower your stress hormones and eventually you will fall a sleep. 😴 It works like magic. Before that I would just stress out like crazy omg in next 7 hours I have to wake up. Omg in next 6 hours, Omg in next 5 hours. Cortisol and adrenaline goes up and up and up that is the recipe to stay awake like it's 2pm... Horrible.. 😁
That really stinks. Best thing to do to get after some sleep is to exercise. The other thing is lower room temp and wear warm clothes. This makes the temp of your head cooler which facilitates falling asleep. Warm showers before bed helps too, as does watching TV, listening to podcasts, and reading books. I'm not sure why media helps, but I think it might be because when the brain processes information and the eyes are focusing it helps to focus your thoughts on amiable things (and maybe it might tire your brain from all the processing). Doesn't really matter why it works if it works though. 🤷♂️
Check out the surrender and let go meditation on KZhead, it’s the one with the like robot looking face as the thumbnail
As a Catholic, I've learned that when I cant sleep, there is a good chance my guardian angel wants me to pray. I start with the rosary and after some time, I'm back asleep. Offer all your frustrations up.
Ah nice I grew up in Spring Branch. Loved it.
I had that dizziness happen to me after waking up upside down in a totalled car after a huge crash. I was wobbling all over the place for weeks. I stumbled onto this strange exercise on the "interwebs" where you rearrange the marbles in your ear canal. Something like forehead on the ground and roll your head forward and hold till you almost pass out then turn a certain way. Really weird but it worked! Couldn't believe it. P.s . Thanks Jocko and Echo . Love listening to you guys. Really interesting and thought provoking discussions with guests and amongst yourselves. I find myself laughing out loud when you guys start digging at each other. Like Echo chilling out and having way too many "rest days" and Jocko always saying "back in the day". Also really enjoy all the book reviews about crazy amazing war stories and then the following interview with the person who lived it. Awesome work guys! Gday from Australia! 😎👍
I have worked a graveyard shift for the past three years and a day job on top of that. The lack of sleep is affecting me so this podcast had my interest in figuring out how I go about rebuilding my sleep habits while working weird hours and restore my health.
Best way is to stop working the graveyard shift. Your circadian rhythm lines up with the cadence of the sun.
1 1/2 years into overnights. It’s been messing with my sleep too, can sleep 10 hours and not feel recharged. Then I sleep 5 hours at night on days off and feel recharged. Finally snapped and contacted a recruiter
@@antonionewton2404 Where I live, opportunities are sparse so I’m saving what I can to make a change later in the year. If the job didn’t take care of my retirement and insurance I would have left it a long time ago. Good luck to you!
Wow, I had the same weird vertigo problem and a doc in Oki helped me the same way.
When your conscience won't let you sleep, that's a beautiful thing
Chuck Norris checks his closet for Jocko before going to sleep
The same thing happened to me! A VA doc figured it out I thought I was dying the first time Puking sweating dizzy as hell
Thanks, jocko. I was wondering why I was always so dizzy when I looked up at the stars.
I’m the exact opposite, I want to live a long, healthy life even at the slightest ache and headache. I go get brain scans and MRIs I’m not playing around. But I did live with leg pain and lower back pain for 10 years, I didn’t want spinal fusion at L5 S1, but I got it done four months ago and it changed my life! I now have zero back or leg pain its a miracle.
Spring Texas represent. KOHS
Went to order this sleep remedy, doesn't ship to Australia unfortunately.
1:44:00 (saving to continue listening later)
Only half way through. Heard Zinc. What else is on the OTC short list for good sleep?
"My wife ain't waking up unless I start firing weapons in the bedroom" Lol
I had that when I was in my 20's and had to do the head til maneuver a coupel of times worked as described
Can't stop thinking they've been sitting there for years just talking.
Possible
I can. Politicians, professors, teachers, lawyers, judges, and car salesmen do that for a living.
@@verycreativename2110 teachers barely talk in class esp in highschool they don’t care get laid bad and bullied and kids there have more money
Hehe, I'm only a few minutes in, but I feel you on the hospital discomfort. Very comfortable beds, but it's never a place of particular comfort. I added “particular,” since it is, still, awful how quick one can get used to the circumstances (especially if you stop caring about the outcome). A few months and it feels weird to go home, too, in some awkward way. I learned that roll as well, hehe, mostly not to rip a bunch of stitches, to avoid further pain and mess. I had a problem with that. I need a physical therapist to *teach me* how to *get out of bed*? To *stand up and go take a piss*? “Don't think so, I'm good.” Admittedly, I was wrong and it was useful advice… Then a couple of weeks later, they say, “you can take a walk if you'd like, but go slow and don't leave.” “Yeah, yeah, I've got this, thanks,” I said and began my walk to the grocery store a mile away. Two hours later on my way back, stupidly enough uphill, stopping to rest (aka sit down and attempt to breathe) every 25 yards, I had plenty of time to think that decision over. Would I do it again? Probably, actually. If the alternative is to let someone else tell me what I'm physically capable of. That's likely where my discomfort comes from in that environment (besides the cardio department being top floor, warm as hell, packed, with windows that won't open and mobile ECG that loses connection if you go anywhere). Someone points at you and says, “you suffer from X which means you can't do Y and shouldn't do Z because that's our baseline for normal people with this condition.” Baseline… Normal…? “The **** you just call me, doc? Speak for yourself.” 😛 There's just no control, at least not seemingly. (That being said, liters of nasty, bloody liquid in your lungs and high fever, obviously impose some limits on what one could and should do, physically. E.g., probably want to drain that and take a Tylenol before a jog.) Sleep is interesting, looking forward to hearing the rest now!
I must have missed it but how did you go from a high school failure to medical school?
they are catching too i think, they cause easyness with ... creating connection the hefty way , .........
2:57:20
Surprised he suggested arimidex. Aromasin is a better choice imo and only for short term if e2 is just really out of control and causing other issues.
1:27:33
Great dynamics: Echo Charles and Jocko talking about sleep, presidential suites vs a rug and a shower curtain near the end. 🤣...Echo Charles: "Cancel the show". 😁🙈
Held off a back surgery for 10 years. Trying to self heal. Came out of it, and eventually back down multiple times over the years. Last time, low crawling to and from the dinner table, for a couple bites. Watching everyone sit and eat like it's normal for this slug to crawl out for slop. Lol. Went in had the surgery and walked out the same day.
Why? Lol
I got something like this but I was told it is...forgive my spelling "osillopcia" I got it at work in 2019 it's not as bad now but I still have it maybe this could be it.
Great...👍
Was given Ambien during labor. My husband keeps telling me I slept for hours sitting up. Good man kept me from falling over the whole time. I have no recollection of that. 🤔
2:03:40. Calling out jocko for not sleeping 😂
Echo Charles, D1 restler
Check.
Another Dandy🇺🇸👊🏻🇺🇸
What would jocko do ?
Creatine can also help with regulating blood sugar levels
What happened to episode 368?
I miss the histories at the beginning
Funny he lives in Dan Crenshaws congressional district in spring Texas. Seals repping seals
I’m having issues with listening to episode 368 on Spotify ? Anyone else?
So how would you classify me I average between 1 to 4 hours of sleep every day and have for years and yes I don't believe this to be normal
I like that math 3:14:25 ✨
I think Jocko should have Jameson travel's on
Just lol’d at the comment about the nam neighbor guy
I like to think the title of this video is meant to read “wake up and get some…some sleep”😂 hahaha
Actually did that this morning. On weekdays I do a manual labour job, do BJJ on monday, tuesday, thursday and friday on the evenings after work and open mat on saturday mornings. On sundays I sleep out without setting my alarm, but often I wake up early anyway, but just let myself fall asleep again.
🇺🇸
i thought Jocko said he didnt drink
Echo, we need BTF bracelets!
Brag brag brag brag 😂😂😂
The doctor usually goes to Jocko
What did Jocko do when his parachute didn't open? He took it back for a refund
Jocko seems more animated about this content. like he sees a useful edge.
i knew it was vertigo
sleep
That's how we grew up. Unless it was super serious, we didn't go to the Dr. We couldn't afford it
I get 2-4 hours of sleep per night. I have tried all the horrid drugs (simply out of desperation) but nothing works. I fall asleep easily but wake up after 2 hours and then struggle the rest of the night. Docs have no suggestions. It is definitely affecting my cognition. Any suggestions??? I NEED sleep!
Sounds like depression. Exercise, diet, drink water , avoid caffeine, see a doctor
@@jeffgardner2093, yeah it's not depression. My diet is pretty good, I don't exercise like I should because of chronic pain. I restrict my caffeine to one energy drink in the morning. Doctors just throw meds at me. The last one I tried (trazadone) made me violently ill. There has to be something better than taking awful medication.
I am 53 y/o almost 54. I have spinal stenosis, sciatic issues and bursitis in my left shoulder and hip. I do yoga, lots of stretches, I use an inversion table. I use a ton of spices in my diet that help fight inflammation, avoid sugar, eat fatty fish such as sardines but you must see a doctor who can refer you to specialist to help you better. Have you had a sleep study? You may need a CPAP or bipap
@@NicolLegakis that's exactly what someone with depression would say. Chronic pain and shit doctors prescribing harmful drugs combined with the inability to exercise, if you were active before the injury that caused the pain you may actually be depressed and dont even realise since it's not a obvious emotional catalyst like grief.
@@Ashley-wi4ng 💯 I went thru exactly this. Still battling it to this day. It’s rough when you hurt all the time but can’t bring yourself to take pills for it. I smoke weed (probably more frequently than I should.) this helps calm my mind. It doesn’t kill any pain but it does dull my senses to it & relaxes me enough to jump into a workout. Also, I take tumeric curcumin for inflammation & that stuff works like a charm. I also left my desk job at 42 & vowed to never work a sedentary job again. The stiffness of old age was starting to set in & it was hurting me to not be moving enough throughout the day. Get enough sleep. Cant stress this enough. Everything hurts more when you’re tired & you’re Good luck up there!
🇺🇸🤙🏾🦅
lmao I guess they tested Jocko's test since they said they were the same as a 17 y/o weightlifting football player. Some off the charts crazy stuff right there lol
Called trt
Jocko doesn't lift weights.... He stares them into submission
I was permanently banned from Twitter due to constant posts supporting many of your comments & idea's but they ultimately blamed me for promoting abusive behavior which was a joke!
Dang i had benign positional vertigo lol cant believe he just toughed it out for a year
According to Nietzsche, Superman is an individual who has surpassed both the Christian morals and values of humanity and transcends pure rationality. Superman is beyond good and evil in that he recognizes that morality only exists concerning human beings. He can create his values through his actions. #thereyougo this is what their worldview consists of.
If they push people to potentially psychosis in navy seal training, are there people that drop out and have permanent mental health problems after going through that?
HIDE THE SCARS TO FADE AWAY THE SHAKE-UP (Hide the scars to fade away the)
This guy has some good information but be careful if you’re thinking about using an AI year around. Probably not the best idea.
Jocko gets blood work done regularly. He has to make sure he has enough blood in his testosterone stream.
Early gang
9ver engineering sleep..is making me upset...ridiculous
they say that swearing a lot releases stress...then it becomes addictive to swear. and its a sin to swear
It's not a sin, they're just Old English words the snooty French didn't like hearing when they ruled England.
he was #petrified so there you go...being petrified is a problem...engineering your life is absolutely bonkers....this is crazy talk
Is he telling the truth?😳
i disagree we are not impaired if we have little sleep..i think impaired is the wrong word to use.
🎇🎆🎇 🎆 🎇 🎆 🎇
I know of another good way to get sleep too..Stop doing meth..
all this practical lifestylre help is well and good, however without Jesus Christ it is all in vain...#mancentered not #Godcentered read #Nietszhe #Superman
Cool, im view #1
Cool story bro
Guest needs water. Listening to dry cocaine mouth is difficult.
Had a dude die in jump school in 88. He had bad plf and banged his dome. Walked off DZ and died like 8 hours later. Sobering. 58:30
35 minutes in and this guy just said for years he didn’t know he was getting paid by the Navy because he wanted to do it for free? Why is this guy bullshitting lmfao
