Banking stress resilience, while you sleep: How to stress bust your days & your nights

Stress disrupts our sleep and poor sleep quality weakens our stress resilience – risking overwhelm, low performance, disillusion and burn-out. So how to turn this around, to become more stress resilient and create a sustainable and rewarding work-life-sleep balance, where you can excel?

By understanding how to intercept this stress cycle and improve the quality of your sleep, you can start making small but impactful changes to help you wake up recharged, stress resilient and empowered to reach your professional and personal goals.

In this talk we will explore:

  • How daily stressors spike your cortisol, disrupt your sleep & undermine your resilience.
  • The power of evidenced-based stress busters that you can drop into your day.
  • How quality sleep impacts the body & brain and our emotional reaction to the challenges that come our way.
  • How to shift your physiology & mindset, boost your sleep quality, to be the stress-resilient you.
