If you’re like most people, the relentless daily grind of go-go-go, do-do-do, can run down your energy and deplete your resources. While most of us find our lives full of “Upstate” moments that rev up our stress engines, it doesn’t have to be this way. World-renowned sleep researcher Sara C. Mednick, PhD, shows us how we can access the most replenishing and repairing aspects of sleep through activities and moments that happen during our day by diving into our “Downstate”.

World-renowned researcher Sara C. Mednick PhD has the solution. She developed the concept of the Downstate while studying how our internal systems sleep, cardiovascular, circadian, muscular and metabolic work together. The results were astounding: our systems need restorative states, and these states don't just happen during sleep. In fact, you can harness Downstate moments in everything you do, from deepening your breath, to timing your exercise and meals, to holding hands, or walking your dog.
