Sleep Hygiene

Getting enough sleep is not a luxury—it is something people need for good health. Sleep plays a crucial role in improving your physical and mental wellbeing.  

A third of US adults report that they usually get less than the recommended amount of sleep. Not getting enough sleep is linked with many chronic diseases and conditions—such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and depression—that threaten our nation’s health. Not getting enough sleep can lead to motor vehicle crashes and mistakes at work, which cause a lot of injury and disability each year. 

Join Jackie Morgado, Lead Technologist at the Center for Sleep Disorders at Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center, to learn about common sleep disorders that affect many people, the effect of sleep on your health, and ways to sleep better.  She will offer tips on how to develop good sleep habits that can help improve your sleep health.
