About this workshop:
Sleep is a critical part of our wellbeing. Building healthy sleep habits helps fight illness, decrease risk of disease, and reduce stress. When sleep improves, so does our mood, concentration, motivation, memory, decision-making, and interpersonal skills.
In order to build better sleep habits, it helps to learn what kind of sleeper you are and identify what’s limiting your sleep.

- How to start sleep-healthy habits from the moment you wake up.
- How to establish an effective bedtime routine that is maintainable and meets your needs.
- How to handle night wakings.
- How nutrition, fitness, stress and more impact your sleep
