Workshops

Sleep and circadian workshops for your workplace

Work schedules influence when people sleep, recover, and perform. Dr. Christine Mason connects sleep and circadian science to the realities of working life, with interactive workshops adapted for employees, executive teams, and leaders responsible for workplace practices.

Workplace sleep education and circadian rhythm workshops for employees and leaders, with formats tailored to your organization.

Working With Your Body Clock: Circadian Rhythm in Women's Midlife

Your calendar runs on clock time. Your body follows biological time. In midlife, understanding that relationship can help women make sense of changes in sleep timing, energy, and alertness.

Dr. Mason explains how circadian rhythms work, how light and daily schedules influence them, and how aging and the menopause transition may interact with sleep and biological timing. Participants examine their routines and identify practical ways to work with their body clocks.

Interactive element: A brief rhythm audit identifying one personal timing change or workplace practice to reconsider.

For employees

Focuses on personal rhythms, light exposure, chronotype, daily routines, and recognizing when further assessment may help.

For leadership and HR

Connects midlife sleep and biological timing to workplace expectations, scheduling, and access to appropriate support. Participants do not need to disclose personal health information.

Circadian Rhythm at Work

Early meetings, late messages, indoor workdays, and changing schedules can pull daily life away from biological timing. This workshop explains how the body clock influences sleepiness and alertness and explores practical ways to support circadian alignment.

Interactive element: A schedule audit exploring where work demands and biological timing may conflict.

For employees

Focuses on understanding chronotype, daily timing cues, and realistic routines within work and family responsibilities.

For leadership and HR

Examines meeting schedules, international time zones, predictable work hours, and expectations around availability.

Sleep Health and Performance at Work

Sleep supports the attention, learning, and recovery people depend on throughout the workday. Dr. Mason explains sleep needs, common barriers to restorative sleep, and how employees and organizations can respond.

Interactive element: A realistic workplace scenario followed by a personal or organizational action plan.

For employees

Covers sleep opportunity, recovery, practical strategies, common misconceptions, and when to seek professional care.

For leadership and HR

Examines organizational barriers to sleep, fatigue awareness, manager communication, and access to evidence-based care.

Travel, Time Zones, and Your Body Clock

Business travel can place the body clock on a different schedule from the destination. This workshop explains jet lag and explores practical preparation and recovery strategies based on travel direction, trip length, and work demands.

Interactive element: A sample itinerary exercise showing how travel plans can better account for biological timing.

For employees

Focuses on planning sleep and light exposure around travel, managing destination schedules, and returning home.

For leadership and HR

Examines itineraries, arrival expectations, meeting timing, and opportunities for recovery.
