Listen Later

Sleep is often overlooked in today's fast-paced society. Many people sacrifice precious hours of rest to keep up with the demands of work and social life. However, sleep is essential for our overall health and well-being and should not be treated as a luxury. In fact, sleep can be thought of as a power charge for us, providing the physical and mental energy we need to function at our best. 

In this episode, Dr. Funke Afolabi-Brown, board-certified in pediatric pulmonary medicine and pediatric sleep disorders, emphasizes the importance of getting a good night's sleep, which plays a critical role in maintaining physical and mental health. Some of the biggest reasons people have trouble sleeping include stress, anxiety, poor sleep hygiene, and sleep disorders, but there are strategies to help those who work night shifts get a better night's rest, such as creating a sleep-conducive environment and engaging in relaxation techniques. Ultimately, getting enough quality sleep on a regular basis is essential for overall well-being and should be prioritized in our daily routine.

Prioritize getting enough quality sleep on a regular basis to recharge your physical and mental energy and improve overall well-being.
