Rest Your Way to Wellness Challenge
Join our Rest Your Way to Wellness Challenge this month
Isn’t it interesting how when it comes to recharging, we’re more concerned about our devices than ourselves? Maybe if we remind ourselves of sleep’s many benefits, we’ll make more of an effort to get the rest we need. Sleep has been proven to increase energy levels, lift mood, contribute to good physical health and improve memory. All great reasons to drop the phone and hit the pillow, right?
Well, for some of us, a reminder of the benefits might not be enough. No matter how much emphasis we put on sleep, when our heads hit the pillow, we lie awake for extended periods as anxiety over continued loss of sleep mounds. Rest assured; Learn to Live can help!
Our insomnia program can help you improve your sleep and overall wellness. Join our Rest Your Way to Wellness Challenge this month, with access code UMN. When you enroll or complete a lesson in any program, you’ll be entered to win a $10 Tango gift card.
