Raise your hand if you need better sleep? Many of us, as busy moms, are consistently sleep-deprived.
Joining us today is Better Sleep Council Representative Terry Cralle! As a Registered Nurse and Certified Clinical Sleep Educator who specializes in sleep health and wellness, Terry educates on the critical importance of sleep to physical and psychological health, growth and development, safety, optimum functioning, productivity, peak performance, and quality of life. She shares why sleep is so important, even more than diet and exercise, for optimum health.
Her work in the field of sleep medicine has included clinical research in insomnia as well as advocating for educational initiatives such as drowsy-driving prevention.
She shares with us why sleep is so important and why considering independent sleeping, also called a “sleep divorce”, may be just what you need to get the best sleep possible.
