The internet is littered with blogs explaining the best way to get sleep. But, how important is it really for stress? And, what do we actually know about getting better sleep?
As we coordinate care for ourselves or others – especially during uncertain times, stress can be our greatest enemy. John Medina, PhD, affiliate Professor of Bioengineering at the University of Washington School of Medicine, shares key research-backed strategies for powerfully dealing with stress; subject-specific experts give us practical ways to implement these tested methods in our everyday lives.
After we watch a pre-recorded video message from Dr. Medina, our guest specialist, Benjamin Surmi, MsG, Social Gerontologist, will do a whirlwind roundup of current knowledge on sleep from a variety of experts.
