For many of us, quality sleep may be hard to come by. Add in the upcoming time-shift from Daylight Saving Time (DST) and our sleep could be disrupted for days or weeks. That’s because this seemingly small one-hour “spring forward” can affect sleep-wake cycles making us more vulnerable to sleep deprivation.

If you’d like helpful tips to prepare for the time change and resources to improve your sleep quality, sign up to receive a special four-week "Sleep Well, Be Well" e-newsletter from MHealthy. Getting enough quality sleep can help with your mental health, physical health, quality of life, and safety. 

Each week, March 4 - 25, you will receive an email that includes:

• Tips on how to improve your sleep

• A weekly challenge encouraging small changes to your sleep routine

• Resources to help you along the way

According to data from MHealthy’s 2023 annual health questionnaire, sleep issues continue to be one of the most prevalent health risks among U-M faculty and staff. Nearly 51 percent of U-M employees reported being at high risk for sleep. 

The first Sleep Well email goes out on March 4. Sign up and learn more. Open to U-M faculty, staff, retirees and spouses/other qualified adults.
