## Resource

Walking in the woods this lunchtime, thinking about Matthew Walker’s book Why we Sleep, particulary the section on Sleep and Learning. Sleep, it seems, helps us prepare to learn, acts as a ‘save’ button for what we’ve learned, and can even help with recall within the day of learning if we take a quick nap in between study sessions.
