Quality, restful sleep—and getting enough of it at the right times—is essential to one’s health and well-being. However, surveys conducted by the National Sleep Foundation reveal that 60 percent of American adults report having sleep problems a few nights a week or more.
The Syracuse University Wellness Initiative is sponsoring a webinar to help individuals assess their sleep patterns, find out about the connection between stress and sleep, and learn about techniques that can improve one’s sleep habits.
The “Why Sleep is So Important: Tips for Getting a Good Night’s Sleep” webinar is Friday, Oct. 19, from noon to 1 p.m. Registration is online via Carebridge. Those unable to join the live webinar may visit the Sleep Webinar page after Oct. 19 to view a recorded version.
