Recording // Webinar // Sleep, Rest and Recovery with Professor Melinda Jackson


Rest & Recovery: How trauma, stress and anxiety affect your sleep and what you can do about it!


When life feels heavy or your mind won’t switch off, sleep is often the first thing to go. Join Associate Professor Melinda Jackson for a practical Q&A on why stress, anxiety and trauma impact sleep, how rest supports recovery and what you can do to start sleeping better.
In this practical webinar, Associate Professor Melinda Jackson unpacks:

  • How sleep and mental health affect each other
  • What happens in your brain when you’re sleep-deprived
  • How much sleep most adults need - and why you might need more during stressful times
  • Practical, evidence-based strategies to improve your sleep
  • When to seek extra support from a GP
  • Reassurance that sleep struggles are common - and that small changes can make a big difference.

Good to hear @Till23 . When the recording comes out, I'll be rewatching it. Let me know if you want a tag. Or I think it gets sent to people's email.

I enjoyed the webinar but unfortunately did not find the information very useful for CPTSD. I have struggled with sleep for many years and hoped there might be some new information. Thank you for offering it though I’m sure the information would be useful for people new to this issue.

@Myf I also suffer from CTSD and thought it might help, but if you didn't find it helpful. I don't think I will bother watching it.
