Quality Sleep
Quality sleep is critical for helping us reduce the stress in our lives. Dr. Ali Singh begins this video by giving us an overview of sleep and its critical health benefits. She then covers how we can improve the quality of our sleep by using practices and habits called “Sleep Hygiene”. These strategies have been studied and used by many to promote healthy sleep behaviors. Ali also shares some signs of significant sleep disturbances and information about when we may want to contact a health care provider for support. Quality sleep is critical for overall health, but only you will know which of these sleep promoting strategies will work best for you. Change doesn’t happen overnight, so please be patient with yourself as you experiment with or incorporate any of these practices into your lifestyle. We appreciate your dedication to this work and hope you are able to use some of these strategies to support less stressful days and more restful nights.
