Awareness Session

Sleep for Positive Mental Health

Explore the powerful, two-way relationship between sleep and mental health — and learn evidence-based strategies to improve sleep quality in a way that transforms wellbeing, performance, and resilience at work.

Why This Matters

Poor sleep is one of the most significant and overlooked contributors to poor mental health at work

The relationship between sleep and mental health is bidirectional — poor sleep worsens mental health, and poor mental health disrupts sleep. Breaking this cycle starts with understanding it.
