Sleep can be incredibly frustrating when you're living with MS. Maybe your legs won't settle. Maybe your mind won't stop racing. Or maybe you sleep all night and still wake up exhausted. But sleep isn't just about feeling rested.

For those of us living with MS, supporting that nightly "brain detox" process can play an important role in protecting the brain and nervous system. In this episode, we're talking about MS and sleep: why sleep can be challenging with MS and a few simple habits that can improve the quality of your sleep.
