Event Navigation
UW- Superior’s Pruitt Center for Mindfulness & Well-Being fall virtual speaker series will host J. Roxanne Prichard presenting Sleeping Well in the 21st Century: A How-to Guide for Better Health. Prichard is a professor of neuroscience and psychology at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota. Her research focuses on sleep health in adolescents, and she served on the NCAA task force for sleep and wellness.
This talk will provide an overview on the science of sleep and how to sleep well in a world that bombards individuals with messages to do more and stay stressed. Prichard will share the six dimensions of sleep health, describe the most common causes of poor sleep across the lifespan, discuss how good sleep supports mental and physical health and performance and give practical ways to improve sleep.
