Why Sleep?

“Poor sleep has been found to be a major predictor of reduced engagement at work. It’s time for organizations to find ways of countering the employee churn, lost productivity, and increased health care costs resulting from lack of sleep.”

Harvard Business Review, February 2016

 

“Sleep is the single most effective thing you can do to reset your brain and body.”

Dr Matthew P. Walker, U.C. Berkeley
