Insomnia in Covid– article in the New York Times

I was pleased to be quoted by Catherine Zuckerman in this very nice article on insomnia in the Covid-19. Between election stress, Covid stress, kid stress, it’s clear that many people are struggling with insomnia.

I’m going to put together another post as we head towards another lockdown, but here’s what I talked about in the article.

• Screens in your kid’s bedroom are an absolute no-no if you want your child to sleep well. 
• If your kid can get 60 minutes of exercise a day, they will sleep better.
• Avoid the forbidden zone when selecting your child’s bedtime.

Lots of great advice for parents here as well, if you’ve been struggling with insomnia. Read the article here.
