‘Quality Sleep, Sound Mind, Happy World’ is the campaign slogan for this year’s World Sleep Day on March 18th 2022. And not without good reason as sleep and mental health are intrinsically linked. Lack of sleep is related to many psychological conditions such as depression, anxiety, ptsd and psychosis. And those suffering with mental health problems are likely to have insomnia, suffer from sleep disturbances, or other sleep disorders.
It’s a vicious cycle that can be difficult and frustrating to break.
My Possible Self welcomes renowned sleep specialist Dr Allie Hare who breaks down and explains why sleep is so important to us; physically, mentally, and emotionally. Dr Allie, a consultant in sleep and respiratory medicine at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London and Secretary of the British Sleep Society, also shares what happens to our brain when we dream, why naps are best avoided, the daytime habits to avoid sabotaging your sleep and what we can send signals to our body that it’s slumber time.
