Why Sleep is Crucial

In this solo episode, I talk about why sleep is crucial for health and wellness and some of the numerous complex processes our bodies go through during sleep.

Our bodies perform brain detoxification with our glymphatic system. They do hormone balancing. We boost our immune during sleep. We also do important cellular repair called autophagy as well as emotional processing, and a whole lot more.
