Wow it’s so exciting for me to be talking more about the 4 things that build new brain because every single one Dr Fiona Kerr spoke about are things I value and implement myself.

By now I am sure you have realised I am a sleep maven and yet each of these things have been my own learning as part of my wellbeing journey.  So I wanted to do a deep dive into the 4 things that build new brain and share some practical strategies to implement these.
