Wake up to the problem of insomnia and stress.
from Finding Contentment · host The American Institute of Stress
A Free Podcast With Guests Rita Hitching and Dr. Lisa Lampe. On this show, we will be talking about one of the worst problems that I think stress can cause, insomnia! High levels of stress impair sleep by prolonging how long it takes to fall asleep and fragmenting sleep. Sleep loss triggers our body's stress response system, leading to an elevation in stress hormones, namely cortisol, which further disrupts sleep. So, what do we do? Well, I’m glad you asked and you have come to the right place. AIS has many articles about sleep, one of them was written by one of our guests today for the Winter 2022 issue of Contentment magazine which can be found at stress.org.
