Everyone needs it, but many people never get enough. What is it? Sleep, and it's not a luxury, it's an absolute necessity according to experts at one of the nation's top sleep disorder treatment centers at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. Meet some patients from the center who have had incredible results, and transformed their lives. Dr. Lisa talks one-on-one with the author of "Power Sleep," Dr. James Maas. He defines the five stages of sleep, and explains why it's necessary to experience all four stages in order to wake up refreshed and alert every day. Meet some "dentists on a mission" who are giving back by helping people who can't afford dental care. Leeza Gibbons and Dr. Jamie share some important advice for care givers who lose a loved one. Plus-- who says spaghetti can only be made with pasta? ChefMD(tm) prepares a delightful spaghetti squash dish, smothered in rich tomato sauce. It's as good for you as it is delicious! Jill Repp has some tips and ideas to help your children experience positive self esteem. Plus, Florida Perry Smith's advice on looking and feeling beautiful during pregnancy.
