Today's action · 5 min

Today, do just two things on purpose: get outside for a walk, and get to bed early enough for at least 7 hours' sleep tonight. Set a bedtime alarm now.

A consensus statement from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and Sleep Research Society recommends adults sleep 7 or more hours a night regularly. After a busy stretch, getting back to the basics of sleep and movement is the quickest way to feel like yourself again.
