How Sleep Affects Memory 😴 | Jim Kwik

When you don't sleep, you're not optimal.

Yeah, if we're talking about brain health and performance, I mean, sleep has to be on top.

Maybe you could talk about that around sleep and the consolidation of learning.

When we do rest and we slow down, we get speed up in other ways because our brain doesn't shut off when we sleep. It actually is doing certain activities. It's actually, in some ways, it's actually more active. It has the ability to obviously repair and restore, but you also consolidate short to long-term memory during this time. And so if people suffering from long-term memory issues, or they can't retain information for longer periods of time, maybe look into sleep.
