Trouble sleeping at the #AUA24 ??

Try this:
Drop the temp in your hotel 2 degrees before sleep
Close all the shades (really dark)
Work out earlier in day
Avoid caffeine after noon
Minimize booze?
Melatonin for jet lag (esp. For European and Asian colleagues)

Hope it helps

#AUA24 wellness rec...

workouts can happen at anytime

i have an early AM routine at home
its almost impossible at the meeting (late nights + early meets)

between sessions, before dinner, etc. all good options to stay healthy, energized & strong this weekend

Another #AUA24 tip rooted in mindfulness...

what is your INTENTION for this meeting?

learn about what?
meet who?
spend time doing?

being clear about what you want out of this time in San Antonio will help make the most of your meeting

This is becoming standard yearly advice for the AUA meeting...

Leave the laptop in your room
Be at the meeting when you are at the meeting
there is so much to enjoy
urology
science
colleagues
friends
learning

if you have to do work, do it, & be present for that too!
