The Importance of Sleep
Sleep experts agree: If you want to be fully alert and in a good mood, creative and energetic all day long, you might need to spend at least 1/3 of your life sleeping. Over an average lifetime, that’s a commitment of nearly twenty-four years in bed! This time is best spent in deep confortable sleep , not tossing and turning trying to get to sleep.
A good night's sleep provides tremendous power. It restores, rejuvenates and energizes the body and brain. The third of your life that you should spend sleeping has profound effects on the other two thirds of your life.
It is important to get the right quantity and quality of sleep.
The various activities of the sleeping brain play a dramatic role in regulating bodily functions, including the immune system, energising the body, and enhancing the thought processes when awake.
