CHEC Yourself is a collaborative project put together by the Community Health Education Center (hence the name CHEC yourself) at Salem Health Hospital in Salem, Oregon. While the content certainly covers a myriad of topics in the health and wellness arena...its broader mission is to help listeners live their best lives. It covers topics that include nutrition, fitness, and emotional resiliency. The intention is not merely to educate, but also to provide tools for listeners who want to create their own vision of a healthy and successful life (and to do it in a way that doesn't require a degree in health science to be able to absorb).

Sleep: The Final Frontier
Monday Apr 12, 2021
Monday Apr 12, 2021
Dr. Thye Schuyler is a board-certified neurologist and sleep specialist. He is the Medical Director of the Salem Hospital Sleep Center, specializing in the treatment of all sleep disorders for adults and children.
Topics covered include: sleep hygiene, sleep apnea, the importance of sleep for health, how to improve our chances of getting good sleep, and how to manage ourselves (and reduce anxiety) when sleep doesn't come.
What Dr. Schuyler reveals to us (beyond the logistics of it) is the mystery of it. Sleep, it turns out, is a very personal experience. No two people have exactly the same challenges even when they have the same "condition." The treatment is often equally individualized. In many ways, to work on our sleep is to work on aspects of ourselves.
