I asked Teresa to share this TED talk with our IB students as there is lots of information that might encourage them to sleep rather than spend the whole night revising. I think that we will plan to sue this video in september when we have Cognita Be Well Day as one of the strands to this day is sleep. We all know that sleep is important but do we know just how important it is to our well-being. This TED certainly made me realize more about sleep than I had previously thought.
"Sleep is your life-support system and Mother Nature's best effort yet at immortality, says sleep scientist Matt Walker. In this deep dive into the science of slumber, Walker shares the wonderfully good things that happen when you get sleep -- and the alarmingly bad things that happen when you don't, for both your brain and body. Learn more about sleep's impact on your learning, memory, immune system and even your genetic code -- as well as some helpful tips for getting some shut-eye."
