Why Choose Sleep Part 2: Realistic Pro Tips for Getting Great Sleep in College

Our last episode taught you a lot about the “why” of getting good sleep. This episode is all about the “how.” We sit down with sleep expert and clinical psychology professor, Dr. Ellie McGlinchey to help create a realistic and simple guide on how to sleep better in college. Don’t worry, she reassures us that you can still have fun in college and get the rest you need. Spoiler alert! Dr. McGlinchey is a fan of darties, napping and caffeine. Tune in to hear about:

• What does good sleep do for us?

• The dos and don'ts of napping 

• How to be mindful of caffeine use

• What to do when your sleep gets wacky 

• How substances influence your sleep
