Empowerment Education

Empowerment Education is the first factor of health. This is what you are doing now. Its important to consistently educate yourself about your health so you can continually move towards better health.

Rest and Sleep

Rest and Sleep is the second factor of health. You heal and restore when you sleep. Have you ever had 4 hours sleep? What did it feel like the next day? Did you know that your immune system is 50% weaker with 4 hours sleep vs. 8 hours. Did you know that 1 hour of sleep before midnight is twice as restorative as 1 hour sleep after midnight? You will feel more restored sleeping from 10pm-6am vs. 12am-8am.
