Description
Do you struggle to sleep well? Are you fed-up, stressed or suffering poor mental health as a result? BOOST Your Sleep is proven to give you greater control over your sleep, allowing you to wake up every day feeling healthier and happier.How important is sleep?We spend one third of our lives asleep. It is as important as eating, drinking and breathing, and missing out on sleep can severely impact physical and mental health. Despite this, around a third of adults get below 7 hours of sleep every night (Centre for Disease Control, 2019).We all know that a bad night’s sleep can leave us feeling down, moody and unable to concentrate. However, research shows that consistent sleep deprivation can lead to more serious health implications, including:• Weakened immune system and increased likelihood of becoming ill• High blood pressure and increased likelihood of heart issues• Increased weight gain• Increased likelihood of contracting diabetes• Increased likelihood of suffering anxiety and depression• Increased propensity for harmful accidents• Memory issuesHow does ‘BOOST Your Sleep’ help?Boost Your Sleep is different to other courses. Rather than providing generic advice on sleeping, it helps you to identify your own unique barriers to sleeping well at night and to design activities that are tailored to your sleep needs. It is also 100% evidence based and has been proven in pilot studies to improve the quality and duration of sleep amongst participants.The course will teach you how to identify issues that impact your ability to sleep and guide you in the creation of your own activities that help you drift into a deep sleep each night.Your purchase will go directly to charity, which helps everyone, especially disabled and disadvantaged people, to lead happier and healthier lives. It is a charity run by people with experience of mental health issues for anyone struggling with their well-being.
