Millions of Americans deprive themselves of one essential thing needed for a healthy lifestyle on an almost daily basis: sleep.
Between our inability to deal with stress, poor eating habits, not enough physical activity, over packed schedules, allergies, sleep apnea, traffic noise...I could go on, but I think you get where I'm going with people not getting enough quality sleep.
We're supposed to get at least 8 hours a day. I can't remember the last time I actually slept more than 6 hours all in a row.
Sleep is when our bodies recharge, rebuild damaged tissue and archive our memories.
Sleep deprivation causes moodiness, lack of concentration, shortened attention spans and lower immunity. It can even stunt the growth of young children. Is it any wonder we have such a horrible road rage problem on our American Highways.
Speaking of sleep...one hour to go and I can get some. My eyes are starting to cross.
