Featured Video: This Is What Happens To Your Brain and Body When You Check Your Phone Before Bed


Most of us know we don't get enough sleep. We stay up too late, eat too much too late, and get sucked into screens when we should be turning them off. 



This 2 minute video from Dr. Dan Seigel at UCLA sums up the damage done when we don't shut everything down and prioritize sleep. On the list of many things that suffer: memory, focus, creativity, impulse control (DOUGHNUTS!), and insulin/metabolism.

In other words, you can be smarter, faster, stronger and slimmer if you turn your screens off an hour earlier every night - and the world will not stop spinning.
