12. Sleep 101: Achieving Optimal Function w/ Dr. Angela Holliday-Bell, MD Washington Wellness

Are you someone who has wanted to improve your sleep but just didn't know how? Maybe you're that person who does not get enough sleep during the night or maybe you sleep for a good duration but the quality of your sleep could be better. If this sounds familiar, and for most of us it should, this episode is for you!

Our guest for this episode is Dr. Angela Holliday-Bell, a Physician and Certified Clinical Sleep Health Specialist working in the Washington DC metro area. She is someone who has in the past suffered first-hand from insomnia for multiple years due to a very busy schedule while in medical school. This led Dr. Holliday-Bell to take action! She immersed herself in any sleep-related research that she could find, applied what she learned to her own sleep and has successfully made significant changes to her sleep for the better.

Specific topics discussed during this episode include:


Why 8 Hours of Sleep May Not Be Right For You

What Happens In Our Body As We Sleep
