Episode Synopsis

Dr. Amanda has helped countless patients overcome their sleep problems and get a better night's rest. In this episode, Dr. Amanda looks at the science behind sleep, what can lead to sleep deprivation disorders and the recent development of 'covid-somnia', a term describing sleep issues relating to the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns. Research shows our sleep is imperative to our physical and mental health and that a lack of sleep can cause serious and ongoing health issues. As our lives become more complicated, we need to be even more conscious in managing our mental health and our sleep. Dr. Amanda helps us to understand what we can do to calm and focus our minds, what to do if we find this particularly difficult or face other sleep challenges and how we can direct our minds to find our pathway to sleep.To find out more about Dr. Amanda Ferguson, you can visit her website at www.dramandaferguson.com.auOr connect with her on Facebook, LinkedIn or Instagram
