Sleep is important

How many of you get the proper amount of sleep? The correct amount of sleep is very important to maintain brain function and rejuvenate the soul.

When we were toddlers we slept for 13 hours or more. Then as we grow up, our need for sleep diminishes. By the time we are adults, we need around 8 hours of sleep to function.

Of course, most of us have had the all night party, or movie session or other event that deprived us of that needed sleep.

For me, after a sleepless night or a night with only a couple of hours of sleep, I feel more tired in the morning than I did at night. Almost the same feeling as a hangover. Very similar to a night of drinking.

I know that sleep is important. I feel recharged and energized. I enjoy waking up after a nice restfulnsleep. I feel ready to conquer the day.

So the biggest thing to ask yourself is, "do you get enough sleep?"
