Russell Foster TED Talk: Why We Sleep

At the Best Sleep Stores in San Jose and Campbell, we are fascinated by the continual discovery of the benefits of sleep - and to helping you get the best sleep of your life. So when we came across this TED Talk, we wanted to share with you.

SHARED FROM TED.com Talks:

Russell Foster is a circadian neuroscientist: He studies the sleep cycles of the brain. And he asks: What do we know about sleep? Not a lot, it turns out, for something we do with one-third of our lives. In this talk, Foster shares three popular theories about why we sleep, busts some myths about how much sleep we need at different ages -- and hints at some bold new uses of sleep as a predictor of mental health.
