This is our first book club episode where we talk about the book "Why we sleep" by Matthew Walker. In this podcast episode we summarise what we learnt in the book about sleep, as well as our thoughts about the book. There are many benefits of sleep, including brain function, better memory, more creativity, better recovery from injury and illness, and better problem solving skills. We also talk about the harm of sleep deprivation and how caffeine, alcohol and sleeping pills affect your sleep quality.
Make sure you listen to the end to hear the top tips from the book that can help you get a better nights sleep!
