I'll Sleep When I Die

Think getting by on five or six hours of sleep is just part of being an adult? Think again.

Join Dr. Abbe Keen (Chiropractic Physician and Functional Nutrition Practitioner), Taylor Keen (Licensed Professional Counselor), and Kiersten Hansen (Functional Nutrition Practitioner) as they explore why sleep is one of the most overlooked foundations of physical, mental, and spiritual health.

In this episode, the hosts unpack what happens when we consistently sacrifice sleep, why falling asleep and staying asleep are often two different challenges, and how everything from stress and hormones to blood sugar, nighttime routines, and screen time can impact the quality of your rest. They also share practical strategies for building healthier sleep habits and explain why the goal isn't just more sleep, but better sleep.

The conversation also explores the deeper purpose of rest. Why did God design us to spend nearly a third of our lives asleep? What if sleep isn't an interruption to productivity, but one of the ways He reminds us that we're not meant to carry the weight of the world on our own? Along the way, the hosts offer encouragement for anyone who struggles with anxious thoughts, restless nights, or the pressure to always keep going.

Whether you're running on caffeine, waking up at 3 a.m., or simply wondering why you never seem to feel rested, this episode will challenge the way you think about sleep and equip you with practical steps to help you rest well.

Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is close your eyes and trust that God will take care of the world while you sleep.

Breathing is something you do every moment of every day... so why are so many people talking about how to breathe?

Join Dr. Abbe Keen (Chiropractic Physician and Functional Nutrition Practitioner), Taylor Keen (Licensed Professional Counselor), and Kiersten Hansen (Functional Nutrition Practitioner) as they explore the surprising connection between breathing and whole-body health.

In this episode, the hosts unpack how your breathing affects everything from stress and anxiety to sleep, focus, energy, and physical performance. They discuss why many of us have forgotten how to breathe well, how chronic stress changes our breathing patterns, and why something as simple as slowing your breath can have a powerful impact on your nervous system.

They also tackle common misconceptions about breathwork, explaining that you don't have to adopt a particular philosophy or spiritual practice to experience its benefits. Instead, they explore how intentional breathing aligns with the way our bodies were designed to function and how it can become a practical tool for everyday life.

Whether you're looking to manage stress, improve your health, or simply understand why breathing has become such a popular topic, this conversation offers a thoughtful, science-backed perspective that anyone can apply.
