3 Key Ways Sleep Affects your Mental Health

A good night’s sleep is essential for our mental wellbeing, however, uninterrupted, peaceful slumber can sometimes be elusive at best.

In this episode, I’m joined by guest expert Dr Toni Winchester who shares the 3 key ways sleep affects mental health and how you can improve your ability to both fall asleep and stay asleep naturally.

We talk about:

  • The different stages of sleep
  • How your quality of sleep affects your mood
  • The dangers of sleep deprivation
  • Getting to sleep naturally
  • Hormones and sleep
  • The effect stress has on sleep
  • Sleep hygiene
  • The relationship between meditation and sleep
  • Offensively small goals
