sleep & your brain health

You've taken the first step...so let's get started! (Remember this is all FREE!)

It may surprise you to know that 65% of Americans are getting less than the recommended amount of sleep. On top of that, 40% of Americans get less than 6 hours sleep a night.

And more than half of all people aged 50 and older experience sleep problems - this results in sleepiness during the day, attention and memory problems, depressed moods, falls, and a much lower quality of life.

You can think of the brain as being a city, and all the brain cells and connections being the roads. When we are asleep, the asphalt is being repaired and new roads are being built and the roadside trash is being cleared away. Cars can get quickly and efficiently to where they need to be just as messages can zip through the neural networks in our brain.


When we get good sleep and these processes are functioning well, our memories that we created from the day can be consolidated and stored and our short term memories are converted into long term memories.

In addition, when we sleep, certain growth hormones and proteins like BDNF work to:

  • stimulate growth
  • aid in cell reproduction and cell regeneration
  • repair our brains. 
  • act like fertilizer for our brain
  • help the brain to develop new connections
  • repair any failing brain cells
  • protect healthy brain cells

The Main Brain-Changing Benefits of a good night's sleep

  • Boost your immune system
  • strengthen your heart
  • improve your mood
  • improve memory
  • Improve Concentration & Productivity
  • Decrease Inflammation
  • Decrease Stress & Depressiom

Simple Smart Science's 5-Day Challenge: Sleep For your brain health

What: 5 days of nighttime challenges to help you stay rested and relaxed all summer


When: this upcoming Monday through Friday


Why:  Getting less than 6- or 7-hours  of sleep can lead to an increase in inflammation and the amount of beta amyloid plaque in the brain. Not only that, but your risk for stroke and heart attack increases and your immune system is compromised too. We need to sleep! Its essential to not only our general health and wellbeing, but very specifically for our cognitive, brain, and memory functioning.


How:  So what causes so many of us to have difficulty sleeping and what can we do about it?  You can expect daily check-ins and detailed instructions from us via email and in our Private Facebook Group on what these causes are and how to combat them.

What You Get: You will be receiving daily emails, a printable document to track your nighttime activities, a list of what you will need (all free), and education on the "why" of it all. This will be sent to you via email!
