    The benefits of snoozing your alarm clock

    The benefits of snoozing your alarm clock

    In this podcast I talk about the benefits of snoozing! This is a replay of a Neurolive webinar I did on my app. For the full webinar AD-free, please see neurocycle.app.



    We have been told hitting the snooze button is a bad habit. But is it? Recently, I read an article in Scientific American that talk about how snoozing can actually be good for us! A growing body of recent research says that snoozing is not the be all and end all that we have been told it is. In some research, there is actually no difference in health outcomes for chronic snoozers and non-snoozers!

Helpful

Enjoying this helpful podcast, but am on episode 9 & the 2 women are talking over each other which is very hard to listen to.

I tried to persist to listen to this but had to give up.
