Sleep is never a waste of time!

We spend one third of our lives sleeping and not one minute of it is wasted!

During sleep, our energy is not invested into physical or intellectual activities but into essential tasks geared towards healing, maintenance, repair, memory consolidation and growth. Getting enough sleep is essential for helping a person maintain optimal health and well-being. When it comes to their health, sleep is as vital as regular exercise and eating a balanced diet.

The following are some of the many benefits health professionals associate with getting a good night’s rest.

✅ Better productivity and concentration

✅ Prevents weight gain

✅ Reduce stress

✅ Lower risk of heart disease

✅ Improves memory 

✅ Preventing depression

✅ Stronger immune system

In conclusion, sleep is a vital, often neglected, component of every person’s overall health and well-being. Sleep is important because it enables the body to repair and be fit and ready for another day. The quality of your sleep is more important than the quantity. Things that could affect the quality of your sleep are: what you eat and drink, medications and most important, the environment in which you sleep. 

So make sure you are comfortable, and getting enough sleep for a more productive life!
