📖Read This

📚‘Why We Sleep’ by Matthew Walker is one of our favorite books.  It offers a comprehensive look at the critical importance of sleep. The book delves into how sleep affects our brains, health, and psychological well-being. Walker highlights the major benefits of sleep, such as enhancing memory, improving immune function, regulating appetite, reducing stress, and lowering the risk of chronic diseases. Walker provides accessible insights while emphasizing how vital sleep is for our overall health and quality of life.  

Walker popularized the term 'sleep hygiene' which encompasses various habits and practices essential for consistently good sleep. A key element is maintaining a regular bedtime, which significantly improves sleep quality and duration.  Like most wellness practices, consistency is key!
