Nothing hits harder over the age of 30 than a bad night of sleep. When Nancy thinks about rest, she automatically thinks about sleep, and how hard it can be to give ourselves the space to actually allow ourselves to get the full amount of sleep we need. Nancy talks about her personal "sleep rules" and how she's learning to bend them. And we talk to Dr. Sara Mednick, a cognitive neuroscience, author and sleep researcher about the truly magical things that our bodies do while our eyes are shut.
Listen to the full episode to hear:
- Nancy's personal journey with sleep and how she's learning to overcome her ingrained "sleep rules."
- A conversation about the science of sleep with Dr. Sara Mednick.
