Sleep...Is The New Black
Sleep Deprivation doesn't help anyone!
Some people choose to "get away" with less sleep, and this attitude is often rewarded in our society....its been called "sleep machismo". But lack of sleep can actually make you less productive, even if you feel as though you're getting more done. And sleep deprivation can do much more than hurt your productivity it can damage your health as well.
Sleep helps your body to repair itself. It also helps your mind absorb and "file" the day's learning. When we deprive ourselves of sleep, we notice (if we don't ignore them) debilitating effects both mentally and physically. However, when we bless ourselves with adequate sleep we notice that:
• We wake up refreshed and full of energy
• We are patient with ourselves and others
• It's easy to concentrate and keep focused
• Our reaction time is immediate and positive
• Feeling peaceful is normal
The short-term ill effects of sleep deprivation can seriously and negatively affect our relationships, our performance at work or school, and our ability to enjoy life. It may even increase the risk of injury and accidents at work or on the road. After only a few days of sleep deprivation, the body undergoes changes similar to "fast-forward" aging: memory loss, metabolism problems (with sugar and hormones), and poor athletic performance. If sleep deprivation continues over the long term, it increases the risk of very serious health problems. However, with comfortable and adequate sleep people experience:
• A strengthened immune system
• Proper metabolism of good nutrition
• Relaxed enjoyment of normal daily life
• A body that feels good and works well
• A gradual return to our ideal weight
The good news is that you can prevent long-term problems by recognizing the early signs that you aren't getting enough sleep, and increasing the amount of sleep you're getting until you feel well rested and ... just as important ... making sure your sleep is comfortable. But remember: the greater the "sleep debt" that you have, the longer it will take to recover.
