ABOUT THE EVENT
Sleep and mental health: beyond the basics
The bidirectional relationship between sleep and mental health is well established, yet the version that reaches us rarely extends beyond "if you sleep poorly, you feel worse" alongside sleep hygiene advice. This talk aims to deepen our understanding of how sleep and mental health are related. It discusses the connection between sleep and mental health, clarifies what the literature says compared with what has made it to the posters, and outlines the aspects of sleep health that matter most for mental health. These themes are explored through common clinical scenarios, illustrating how the sleep and mental health link plays out in practice. The talk offers clinicians and community members a more nuanced account of why sleep matters, and how best to care for it.
