🧠 Apollo Brain Pearl #3: Sleep Apnea
Poor sleep isn't just an inconvenience—it's a brain health risk. From memory and focus to mood and detox, your brain depends on deep, high-quality rest.

But here’s the thing: you can sleep through the night and still miss out on true restoration. Low oxygen? Fragmented deep sleep? Mouth breathing? All of these disrupt the brain’s ability to clean itself, store memories, and regulate stress.

Dr. Deborah Gordon breaks it down in this week’s Brain Pearl, including simple strategies to:

✅ Improve oxygenation
✅ Track your deep and REM sleep
✅ Set up your space and schedule for optimal rest

Read the full article on our blog at northwestwellness.net, or book an appointment with our team to assess your sleep and reclaim your energy.

🌙 Better sleep = better brain. Start tonight.
