Rest & Recovery: How trauma, stress and anxiety affect your sleep and what you can do about it!


When life feels heavy or your mind won’t switch off, sleep is often the first thing to go. Join Associate Professor Melinda Jackson for a practical Q&A on why stress, anxiety and trauma impact sleep, how rest supports recovery and what you can do to start sleeping better.
In this practical webinar, Associate Professor Melinda Jackson unpacks:

  • How sleep and mental health affect each other
  • What happens in your brain when you’re sleep-deprived
  • How much sleep most adults need - and why you might need more during stressful times
  • Practical, evidence-based strategies to improve your sleep
  • When to seek extra support from a GP
  • Reassurance that sleep struggles are common - and that small changes can make a big difference.

Hi @Dimity 

I will ask the boring question first:
- did you check your spam or junk folder?

If you have, I will chase it up in zoom and see if I can reissue a confirmation email!

Thanks @Oaktree for tagging me in.

Thankyou ❤

Re: Upcoming Webinar: SLEEP!! Rest and Recovery with Professor Melinda Jackson

Thank you so much! 😊 

 

Please rav3n, would it be possible to get on this listing for the webinars to be regularly tagged?!?

 

I would like to be more active on the forums but I get very distracted all the time & I'm down a hundred research rabbit holes currently, so would love some accountability buddies, if there's others who are ok with helping me with that here?!? 

 

Thank you, I understand if that's not possible but just putting it out there....

I'm great for helping others with their things, but it's so difficult for me to do for myself for self-care stuff. I feels weird & unnatural for me because of how I was raised & other factors of my thinking that work against me a lot. 

 

Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️

Re: Upcoming Webinar: SLEEP!! Rest and Recovery with Professor Melinda Jackson

Thanks for a really fantastic webinar Melinda, Jacqui and AuntGlow.

Much appreciated. 🙂

Re: Upcoming Webinar: SLEEP!! Rest and Recovery with Professor Melinda Jackson

I appreciated the clear presentations but was a little disappointed the information was pitched at a general audience... most hints at lived experience and/or caring came from audience comments. There were a couple of mentions of anxiety and depression but nothing on sleep disturbance as prodrome to mania and psychosis. Maybe that just reflects the prevalence of mental health concerns in the community at large.

Re: Upcoming Webinar: SLEEP!! Rest and Recovery with Professor Melinda Jackson

Thank you for sharing your feedback. You've made some really important observations there. Did you have a chance to ask questions? Isn't there a Q&A section? I have to re-watch it. I only watched some of it. 

 

I wonder if it's worth while starting a thread about mental health and sleep challenges being a prodrome to mania/psychosis? @Dimity 

 

Or next time we have a webinar on mania/psychosis, maybe we can add sleep to something we want to know about?

Hi @tyme I signed up fot the sleep webinar, but I couldn't attend as I had sport training (I had the time wrong so it clashed). Are they recorded, can I access it somehow?

Re: Upcoming Webinar: SLEEP!! Rest and Recovery with Professor Melinda Jackson

Thanks @tyme ..

Yes, training was good. It was a good session and I had a bit of endorphin feel good afterwards.

I hope you are well

Thanks for tagging me @rav3n . I’ll watch it after I’ve had lunch. I get up so early I’m hungry already lol

Re: Recording // Webinar // Sleep, Rest and Recovery with Professor Melinda Jackson

I enjoyed the webinar but unfortunately did not find the information very useful for CPTSD. I have struggled with sleep for many years and hoped there might be some new information. Thank you for offering it though I’m sure the information would be useful for people new to this issue.

@Myf I also suffer from CTSD and thought it might help, but if you didn't find it helpful. I don't think I will bother watching it.
