Welcome to

Welcome to another Wisdom Wednesday, where we share evidenced tips, insights, and more. We’ve been exploring how research works—and how to engage with it thoughtfully. So far, we have talked about cognitive and research bias — and how hard it can be to know what’s actually true.

Last Wisdom Wednesday, we talked about cognitive biases and how they shape the way we see the world — and how the scientific method helps correct for those distortions. But bias doesn’t stop with people. It can also show up in research itself. Who gets studied, how data is interpreted, and what results get published can all influence what we think we “know.”

For the next few Wisdom Wednesdays - where we share evidenced tips, insights, and more - we’ll be exploring how research works and how to engage with it thoughtfully. This week, we are looking at how cognitive biases shape how we see the world and decide what’s true. While these mental shortcuts help us process information quickly, they can also lead us astray.

This week, we’re doing Wisdom Wednesday a little late to highlight the start of 2026. With your New Year’s resolutions fresh on the mind, let’s talk about what research says about them!

The final tip is one of the most important: Don’t Stress About Sleep ⏾. Worrying about sleep can actually make it harder to rest. One rough night doesn’t mean you’re failing—and your body is often getting more sleep than it feels like. Instead of aiming for perfect sleep, focus on supportive habits and consistency. When stress is low, sleep comes more naturally.

Welcome to another Wisdom Wednesday, where we share evidenced tips, insights, and more. This week’s tip highlights how Bedrooms Are for the 2 S’s. Your brain learns through associations. When you work, scroll, or watch TV in bed, your brain starts to link your bedroom to being alert instead of relaxed. Keeping your bed reserved for sleep and intimacy helps strengthen the connection between your bedroom and rest —making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

It’s Wisdom Wednesday, where we share evidenced tips, insights, and more. This week, we are focusing on movement and nourishment. Daily movement and balanced eating help your body sleep better. Being active during the day naturally increases your sleep drive, while steady nourishment keeps your energy and mood stable so it’s easier to wind down at night.

It’s another Wisdom Wednesday, where we share evidenced tips, insights, and more. This week, our sleep hygiene series highlights the need to Watch What You Eat & Drink. What you put into your body during the day affects your sleep at night. Cutting back on caffeine, being mindful of alcohol, and avoiding heavy meals before bed are simple habits that support deeper, more restorative sleep. Similarly, sleep can also affect hunger cues and how we metabolize food.

It is our last Nonprofit November spotlight.

Welcome back to Wisdom Wednesday, where we share evidenced tips, insights, and more. For week 6 of the sleep hygiene series, we are targeting Only Sleeping When Sleepy. Remember our sleep drive? We only feel tired if our sleep “pressure” (aka sleep drive) is high. Trying to go to bed when you do not feel this pressure and are not tired can make it even more difficult to fall asleep.

Welcome to Wisdom Wednesday, where we share evidenced tips, insights, and more. It’s week 5 of our sleep hygiene series - Limiting Screens. The light from phones, TVs, and laptops delays your brain’s melatonin (sleep hormone) release — making it harder to fall asleep. Turning off screens at least 30 minutes before bed can help your brain transition into rest mode.
