SPEAKER_01

Hello and welcome to Mind Body Sleep, the podcast for anyone out there who wants to understand and recover from insomnia using a holistic perspective. I'm Beth Kendall, your host. Let's get started. Hello and welcome to this special episode of the podcast because I am having my very first guest today. And it's not just any guest. This person is a close personal friend. She is a fellow sleep coach and just all around incredible person. Welcome, Michelle Vay.

SPEAKER_00

Thank you so much for having me today. I'm really excited to be here.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I'm so glad you're here. Um, all right. So I know that the listeners would love to know a little bit more about you. You went through your own struggle with insomnia, and I know there's no such thing as a short insomnia story. But tell us what that was like and what you're all about, and maybe let everyone know how we came up with today's topic.

SPEAKER_00

Sure. So I had insomnia for five years before I was able to find the right help and recover. But I think I was like so many people out there struggling with this. I really thought I had a physical problem, something deeply wrong with me. And I spent years chasing my symptoms around in circles endlessly. I know, everything from hormones to gut health, brain health. I feel like I really did do it all. And it didn't occur to me at the time that insomnia could in any way be driven by what was going on in my mind and my brain, and how this was so connected to the symptoms that I could be feeling in my body. I knew I was, you know, really anxious, really panicked a lot of the time, but I didn't understand the role of my beliefs and my own reactivity in driving the whole insomnia cycle. So it took a little while for me to kind of figure things out. But once I understood this a lot better, that really started my own journey to recover from uh from years of struggling with my sleep intensely. So that's that's a little bit about what this looked like. And I think we were we were talking a little bit about uh some potential topics for today. And as we both know, you know, going through insomnia is it's really hard. It's often such a difficult, difficult thing to experience for anyone. And we were thinking of, you know, some of the, some of the the lighter sides actually, not necessarily in the moment, but looking back, and we were talking about some of the the things that we did during our insomnia that now makes us laugh. And we thought, oh, it what if we what if we talked about some of that and sort of brought up some of the lighter sides or some of the things that maybe they aren't that funny in the moment, maybe they are actually in some cases. Um, but that there can be this this other side where you can look back and even even laugh at certain things. That's that's possible. So I think that's how we landed on today.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, absolutely. Well said. And I love this idea so much. Um, and in fact, you know, I've mentioned this to a couple of my clients that I'm doing this podcast on some of the you know craziest things we did when we were in it. And, you know, they've offered me some of the things that they've done. And I mean, I've heard some that I've never heard of before. So I think a lot of people will be able to relate to this really well. Um, okay, so I'm gonna let you go first, Michelle. And we will follow this up, right, with some silver linings. We're gonna follow this up today with some of the silver linings of insomnia, which have been many as well. So, all right, lay it on us. What do you got?

SPEAKER_00

All right, no pressure. Um, yeah, absolutely. And I I would be so curious to hear other people's experiences, you know, your listeners. So I hope they they write you and let you know, because I'm sure we all have so many of these types of stories. Oh and my the first one that really came to mind, and I don't know if anybody listening is a Seinfeld fan or used to watch Seinfeld, but there's all these uh episodes where one of the characters, George, used to used to sleep under his desk at work. And he used to even get up in the first thing in the morning and say something like, you know, his nap at work was the only thing that could get him out of bed in the morning. And anyway, so he was known to be sleeping under his desk at work. And I had this period of time where I had this stretch where I was, you know, sleeping very little. I was really, really tired. Uh I was, you know, working full-time. I was actually functioning very well, but I was really tired on this particular day. And I had this office space that had, you know, glass windows for the most part, and or you know, glass so it was clear. And I had one of those big kind of wraparound desks with a closed bottom. And lunchtime had rolled around and I was so exhausted. And really all I wanted to do was rest for an hour, close my eyes, maybe meditate. And the idea of sitting on the floor with like a hard surface against my back felt grounding. I sometimes do this at home and I thought, oh, and it's it would be also private, right? Because I nobody would be able to see that I was resting in this way. So I thought, I'm just gonna sit, I'm just gonna sit on the ground underneath my desk and I'm going to relax and just close my eyes for just a little bit. That was my plan. We're gonna close my eyes. I'm gonna meditate on my lunch break. And then I woke up about seven hours later. I woke up possibly eight. Everyone's gone. Yeah, just the shell under the desk, just me. I had passed out. I mean, I don't even remember feeling sleepy. I had clearly just completely fallen asleep, and it was pitch dark, and it wasn't even just like the people in my office went home. The whole building had everyone was gone. And I I woke up, I was so startled waking up to this. I felt so embarrassed. I kind of slunk out of the building. My husband thought I was working late, he was confused, and really I slept under my desk for pretty much, you know, a whole day. And and I remember going a whole night's rest. A whole night's rest, yep, a whole night's rest. Yeah, and uh I went in the next day kind of worried. Like, did anybody did anybody know? Right. And so I I went in with this very cautious, observant energy to feel things out, and nobody did, and nobody could see me. I think they just must have thought I had meetings or I went home early. Nobody would have possibly known. And so I felt very uh cautious and embarrassed for a couple of days after that. But I was basically I was George, and that was my first thought. As I was quickly gathering my things and getting getting home, I thought, oh my gosh, I've turned into George. I'm George. That's me.

SPEAKER_01

And so did you continue to sleep under the desk for close time or did that become your new sleeping place?

SPEAKER_00

Well, despite how restful it was, unlike George, I chose to not repeat that behavior. So um, whereas I think I think George, if I'm remembering correctly, actually engineered a full sleeping space, like a bed and everything under his desk. So I certainly didn't take it that far. But yeah, that was one of the the kind of silly moments I had at some point during my my insomnia days.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I can so relate. I can so relate. Yeah. And okay, so do you want should I go next or do you want to do that? I think absolutely, absolutely. Okay. Well, I I was thinking about this and I almost like I I actually have bullet points here. And I was like, oh, I'm gonna have to break this into like two sections. So the first section were or the first, I don't know, the were things that I did that I broke it down into the most expensive thing I did and the most time-intensive thing I did. And the most expensive thing that I did was this PEMF mat. And PEMF stands for pulsed electromagnetic fields, I think. And it's, you know, it's all about the grounding. So when you were like really grounding, I was like, yes, I literally I forked out so much money. I can't remember exactly how much it was. I think it was like$4,500 or$4,900. And I just remember thinking, I could buy a used car for how much I'm paying for this mat. And but like the the woman selling it was just like so convinced this was gonna help me with my sleep. And I just was like, oh yeah, this does. If I just lay on this mat, this is gonna be the thing, you know. Um, I had such high hopes for it. And it was just like such like such a precarious time with my finances. So you can imagine the hope that was riding on that. Oh, yeah. And so I get the mat, and it's, you know, I laid on that thing for hours. I mean, hours and hours and hours. And I don't even know if I felt anything with that mat, but I am like totally into all of these types of things, and I do believe in grounding, you know, on the earth and all of that. But I would lay on that mat for hours. And, you know, it didn't help with my sleep because of course it wasn't doing anything to address the fear and anxiety behind not sleeping, but that was for sure the most expensive thing that I did, and then the most time intensive for sure was probably going down the DNA rabbit hole of 23 and me when that came out. I was like one of the first people to, you know, send my my sample in. And I was certain that I I was very certain that I had some sort of genetic deficiency in my ability to sleep, and I was gonna find it, you know. So I did that and I spent hours, probably days or weeks worth, well, probably weeks, if not months, I don't know, a lot of time searching for how my DNA could be impacting this struggle with my sleep. So those were kind of the two things that I did. And then my next category is a little bit different, but I'll let you chime in again, Michelle.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I love those two. And if I could have gotten my hands on a grounding mat, I absolutely would have been right there with you, no matter what the price. And as you were saying that, I thought, yes, but Beth, would the used car have made you feel grounded?

SPEAKER_01

No, it wouldn't. I don't know, but it would have been practical, it would have gotten me to and fro. But yeah, no, I mean, you know, I was like, yeah, I we just really did think that laying on that mat for hours and hours just would really help. And I could see where I were where my thinking was at the time. But now that of course we know so much more about insomnia.

SPEAKER_00

You know, absolutely. And it makes me think of my uh my time with weighted blankets very similarly. And I like how how you brought up the the 23 in me because I did the same thing. I went down the genetic testing rabbit hole and also spent a lot of time and money doing that. So you and I have that in common and sort of being convinced that all of this must be driven by some sort of genetic, you know, factor or something to be unearthed, and that can be a very difficult rabbit hole to find yourself in because there's so much complexity. So I have a lot of empathy for that because I went there too. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, totally.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I know, and I know that I was thinking back, and I also have the same bullet points uh as well. I thought, let's of course you do. Of course. Yeah, of course. And I know that one that I had shared with you, uh, when I I look back now and it makes me laugh. I was, well, let me provide a bit of context. At the time, I was really afraid of my heart rate because I had such a high heart rate pretty frequently. And of course, when we are struggling with insomnia, it's really normal to deal with higher levels of hyperousal both at night and in the daytime. And high higher heart rate can be part of that. And but I didn't understand any of this, right? I didn't understand what was driving my high heart rate and keeping it elevated. And so I therefore became really afraid of the fact that I had a high resting heart rate. And when I would stand or walk around or do anything, it would get much higher. So at times I would decide that if I could just be perfectly still all day long, if I could not move an inch for as long as possible during the day, um, that this that then I would sleep that night somehow. And so I don't know how I correlated the two, but it was this idea that if I could just be very still and somehow get my heart rate down, that would lead to sleep. And so I did have several days at times where that was my intention and I would try to be as still as possible and not move. And now looking back, I think, oh my gosh, like yes, in the moment it was being driven by fear. So it wasn't funny in the moment, but it makes me laugh a little bit now, uh, especially because it made me so afraid to move. Whereas now I I can't imagine having the fear of movement. Uh, when in reality there was probably so much adrenaline in my body that moving would have released all of the adrenaline, exactly. Correct, correct. You know what? Go for the walk. Go for the walk. Don't be afraid. It's okay.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my goodness, yes. I wonder if you were laying still the same time I was laying still on my on my mat. Probably, probably I was guessing that was my mistake. We didn't know each other.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, we didn't know each other at the time. Oh my goodness. Exactly. That was my mistake, clearly, was not incorporating the mat.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

My routine. If you had some illness.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. I totally hear you because I was doing the exact same thing on the mat. Yeah. But you know, I think like for me, where things really got nutty in my mind was that the thing, the beliefs I started creating in my mind. And, you know, I was like George, in that I literally started to believe that I could only sleep in these very unusual places. And I got it in my mind that I could only sleep in uh airport-related places. And this would be like on the floor in the gate area behind the podium. This would be like employee airport lounges. And, you know, I just I thought this is so strange because it obviously wasn't a quiet environment. It couldn't been more light. Like I'm sleeping under these fluorescent lights, but this is where I would actually sleep the hardest. And, you know, it's so perplexing when you're going through it. What I didn't understand was that it wasn't those places or conditions, it was the absence of pressure to sleep that actually allowed me to sleep all of these places. But I was linking it to, well, you know, my brain seems to only be able to sleep in these like airport-related environments. And then I would get to these beautiful hotels that we would stay at on these layovers, you know, and I couldn't sleep at all in this gorgeous bed with great pillows. Not a chance because the pressure was on, you know, the pressure was on to sleep there. So of course I couldn't sleep. So it's like the just the beliefs that my mind created. And this also transferred into um, oh man, Michelle, I don't think I've ever told you this, but I used to travel a lot with my friend Kelly when I was going through Lyme disease treatment. I would travel every month to go see my doctor. And we would only book hotels in rooms that had a big enough bathroom for me to be able to roll a roller bed in there or have like a like a blow-up mattress in the bathroom. Like we would call ahead and make sure that they're like we could they could accommodate me sleeping in the bathroom. And, you know, Kelly could not have been. She was just like, oh, okay, no problem, whatever. Um, and so I would be like in these bathrooms sleeping. And it was like, you know, it was pitch black in these bathrooms and quiet. And I just felt like I had, okay, I need to have this sort of environment, like this sort of like space to myself. I didn't care where it was. Sometimes it was a closet, you know, didn't even matter. But one time I couldn't sleep in one of these bathrooms because it was like a blow-up mattress. It was like a fancy blowup mattress. And I, you know, I'm like telling Kelly, I'm like, I I can't sleep. We're gonna have to switch, you know. And she's like, she's one of those annoyingly good sleepers that just falls asleep on demand, you know, just like, oh dear. I don't know. I don't, I don't, I don't get it. It's just like, all right, I'll sleep in there. So she goes in there and I I go into the bedroom and I wake up the next morning and I go in the bathroom, and Kelly, the the mattress had deflated to the point where she was completely on the ground with like an inch of air left in the mattress, and her head was like in the shower stall, and she was still sleeping. She's like sleeping right through that. And you know, I was just like, it's it was always good that she was such a good sleeper because I was just such not, and it somehow worked out, but you know, it was it was very interesting, the beliefs that I created around my sleep. Oh, absolutely.

SPEAKER_00

And what a good friend as well to roll with all of that, just be like, absolutely sure this makes sense.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, just no, no biggie, you know.

SPEAKER_00

I I'll just I'll sleep in the shower saw.

SPEAKER_01

That's no problem.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, that's a friend right there. Yeah, for sure. I I get that. I think it's it's impossible not to develop so many different beliefs. I had the opposite belief, or I believed I could only sleep with the utmost. Perfect tranquility, the absolute most perfect circumstances, which ironically, even though I created those for myself often, I still did not sleep, but I still believed that. Um, despite sleeping under the desk, you think that would have been a bit of a clue, you know, the one moment where I'm trying not to sleep, where it's uncomfortable for sleep and it's happening. But no, my my bedroom was the most tranquil, perfect sleep environment you could possibly imagine. And and also scientifically, Beth, because I took great care to make sure that it was completely dark. There were no no signs of light from clocks, not even the smallest kind of light. And I remember hearing somewhere once that if you could at night in your bed raise your hand above your face, you know, about a foot, a foot away from your face, if you could see it, it wasn't dark enough. And I thought that makes sense. So I painstakingly did whatever I needed to do to create this a cold, dark cave, you know, with all the lavender oil in the world, which I by the way, I hate the smell of lavender oil, but I used to basically bathe in lavender oil, thinking that would be that would be it. This this is the thing. And even though it actually stressed me out and made me feel nauseous, I would just be like, we well, we need more of that because that's what's going to create the perfect environment. So my beliefs were in the opposite direction. I needed to make things as perfect, as humanly possible in order to sleep. And it still didn't happen, but I still had that belief because the moment something was off, or if heaven forbid, a little shining of light entered my room, I would be like, that's it. Game over. Um you know, a a beam of sunshine on my leg. Game over. That's it. That's it for the rest of the next week, probably. That's yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yes. I so hear you. I I was just talking with someone about this right before um our call here and how all of the info out there, like you know, Huberman, and which I love Huberman. I love, I mean, there's so much I love about him, but just how much fragility they're creating around our uh our sleep systems, you know, that we're just like creating this, like we're so fragile and we've got to do like all of this, you know, and really we're so resilient. And when you think about, you know, 500 years ago or whenever, like people were not doing any of this stuff. Like they just like, well, just sleep on the ground here, I guess, you know, and it you know, here we are. Like, I think I read that exact same piece of advice about seeing your hand. If you can see your hand, then it's not dark enough, and just and then get getting really freaked out if there was any kind of light coming in. So totally with you.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and I remember first first reading that and testing it and being able to see the outline of my hand and going, oh my god, no wonder this is happening to me. Yes, exactly, and thinking that was it, like that was the reason that's it. If I can just fix this, yes, yes, yes. Oh man. And and for me as well, I mean, the irony is that having a completely pitch dark environment felt unsettling, like to have to be in complete, complete darkness at that level. But I ignored that. I thought, well, no, this is the way, this is science, and this is what I have to do. Yeah, this is this is what I have to do this is what I have to do. Yeah. And I think you're right. It it does. While a lot of that stuff can sound really interesting and and uh like you, I'm a fan of Huberman too, but I do agree that it really, really makes people feel like they can't trust themselves, their bodies, or there, that there is no innate ability to sleep and be okay. It's really that I have to control everything that's going on in my environment, and I have to control my body so much as much as possible. And then maybe I'll have a chance. And so it just creates so much more stress and pressure. And again, the loss of that trust where there's no more trust, it's just replaced with fear and control and pressure to get it, to get it right. Because if you can see the beam of light, right? That's it, it's over.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah. So well said. I you just said that so beautifully, and I know that we see this so similarly. And how you know what happens, I think, while all of those that information out there is very well intentioned, is it just it starts putting conscious effort into an unconsciously effortless process. You know what I mean? Like it just like changes this very natural thing and simple thing of sleep into something really complicated, something that happens that naturally happens towards something we need to do. And, you know, I think like a lot of like the biohacking community and very health conscious individuals, which I know both of us were in the nutritional therapy space prior to becoming sleep coaches. And I mean, it's just so easy to fall into that, you know, because when you do want to take care of your health and you know, your physical life and all of these things, and that's all the information out there, it's it's easy to see why people grab onto it.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, absolutely. And it can even be a really helpful approach for other things. Yeah. And I think that's what's so confusing is you know, somebody could have had a really positive experience with that approach in another area of life, and then they just want to reapply it in this area, and it suddenly backfires, and that feels confusing and scary. And I completely understand that because that was very much my approach for years on end. No stone left unturned.

SPEAKER_01

Absolutely, absolutely. I'm gonna find everything out there that could possibly be causing this.

SPEAKER_00

Absolutely, including my own DNA and physiology. And what am I not metabolizing correctly? Because clearly that's the thing. Yeah. Um, yes, definitely. So I think it's good that we can see laugh about it now.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah. And definitely, you know, there have been silver linings in this experience of insomnia. And I know for anyone out there going, you know, really in it right now, it's it's hard to believe that that could be true, but it it really is. And I think, Michelle, you would probably agree that we know so many people now that that can feel that, you know. So it's just just to give you some hope. And Michelle, like what were some of the silver linings that you've had from the experience?

SPEAKER_00

Oh, well, there are actually so many. And every time I think about this, I do uncover a couple of new ones as I go along. But I think for me, the whole experience of insomnia and going through insomnia recovery was a broader invitation for me to look at not just sleep and how I was showing up and relating to sleep, but how I was actually relating and approaching so many parts of my life. And it really allowed me to see that I was very fear-based in so many areas. And I really hadn't seen that before. And so, kind of just having that broadened perspective. And I really did feel like recovering from insomnia was this broader invitation to do, I guess, this deeper internal work that we the we often end up doing with ourselves when we're going through something like this. So that was that was one thing that came to mind was just this idea that recovering from insomnia all often has a global impact on the rest of the rest of your life because fundamentally you're turning inwards and you're doing internal work, you know, with yourself. And it almost has to have a a broader impact. So I think that's one that comes to mind. How about you?

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah, that was I just enjoy the way you said that so much. So there's so there's so many, there's so many silver linings. But I think that, you know, the big one that's sort of at the forefront right now is that it brought me to this career and, you know, helping others through something in a way that I really wish that I would have had when I was going through it. And I think it's so exciting to be a part of a community doing this work because I really do feel that we are on the leading edge of how to think about insomnia and how to help people with it. And of course, I never would have met you, and I absolutely treasure our friendship so much. And I think also the silver lining for me with insomnia was that it taught me the power of my own mind and how it's never the thing, it's always the meaning that we assign to the thing that creates how we experience it. And insomnia for me really showed me that. It just really showed me that, and that we have this beautiful ability to direct and focus our mind in intentional ways. And I think when you were talking about the global impact of us and our experience, I think that insomnia was also a messenger. Yeah. To it's like the messenger for me, the message was where is the pressure in your life? Where can you let go? Like it for me is a condition of pressure. And that there's areas somewhere in my life that I'm putting a lot of pressure on myself, and where can I let that go? And then I see that, you know, and I'm sure you do too, in our coaching practices where when people can get stuck, a lot of times there's some pressure being put on the process in some way or on ourselves. So, you know, and also, you know what, Michelle, it really for me was kind of a spiritual experience. It just brought me to levels of awareness I don't think I would have considered without going through it. So, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I would agree. I think everything you you said, I was nodding along because I feel exactly the same way. It it shifted so much for me. Um, of course, both of us becoming sleep coaches and working in this space. And, you know, for me, uh really understanding the mind-body connection, self-directed neuroplastic neuroplasticity, all of this kind of came along with this whole experience. And very similarly to what you just shared, I also felt like it it was a spiritual um experience. And there was so much growth involved on so many levels and more aware coming out of this experience with deeper levels of awareness and connection that you know, is has been really um a special part of the experience. And it can be hard to see that when you're in it. So I understand that sometimes people can hear that and think, well, how could that possibly be? This is such a difficult, such a difficult thing. And I think it's it's often those really difficult experiences that can lead us to the most growth if we allow it. And so and I see that all the time with the clients that I work with. So there's that element of that as well, for sure.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yes. Well, I can't thank you enough for being my first guest today. I I think that people will get a lot out of this. And tell us where everyone can find you. And y'all, her website name represents her completely. So, Michelle, just tell us where they can find you.
