Do you sleep like a baby?

Sleep. Probably one of the most underrated factors of a person’s health status. Along those lines, here are two questions for you:

  • Do you have a bedtime?
  • How many hours do you sleep per night?

 

According to Harvard Health, “One in five Americans sleeps less than six hours a night—a trend that can have serious personal health consequences.” It is recommended that adults aim for 7-8 hours of sleep nightly. Adequate sleeps aids in a multitude of health factors, but here are a few: improved memory, reduced inflammation, sharpened mental acuity, reduced stress, healthy weight, and better mood.

Studies show that a nightly routine, including a set bedtime, is enormously helpful in establishing a healthy sleep life.
