A host of studies and reports has linked insufficient sleep to depression, ADHD, obesity, Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s. Back in 2014, the CDC labeled sleep deprivation a public health epidemic— with over 70 million adults suffering from a sleep disorder.On today’s episode I interviewed sleep and rest expert, Amanda Slinger to explore the topic. Amanda has a medical background and over 20 years of experience working in educating organisations on the critical role that rest and sleep play in optimising individual and collective performance. Leading her team at SleepSpot, she has built a visionary, science-based Employee Recharge Programme, which is reshaping the landscape of workplace wellbeing by helping organisations nurture a healthy, engaged and happy workforce.
