Quality Sleep: Your Key to Recharge!
You hit the sack, and your eyes shut instantly. A moment of peace is felt while you doze off. It sounds like everything feels right. That is the power of a good sleep. It is not about the hours of sleep but how you sleep. Quality over quantity. Do you still think a good sleep is a luxury? It is a basic necessity!
1. Body’s Ultimate Healer
Just like the reset button on your mobile phone, sleep works for your body. I mean it as an ultimate healer as it aids in repair works of the body. Ever wondered how your cuts or mild bruises have healed better faster after a good quality sleep? It is no coincidence, but the magic of sleep. A good sleep works more as the behind the scene crew in our drama filled routine.
But when you do not have adequate sleep, you are cutting off the recovery phase of your body. By doing so, you drag yourself into lots of trouble and you are prone to fall sick! You get stressed and burn out easily.
2. How Sleep Shapes Your Emotions
How about a calm and focused mind at work and having the energy to tackle anything that is thrown at you, like troubleshooting ninja? Sounds good? Now imagine a situation where every tiny task looks too much to take up and you are finding it hard to stay focused and feel a lot anxious. This is majorly due to lack of sleep. Sleep is responsible for out overall well being. So give it the utmost importance.
3. Not Just About the Time but the Quality!
Catch here is that, you sleep for eight hours and call it a win? Definitely not! It is all about how deeply you rest. An interrupted or light sleep can never be taken into account as a good sleep. As you lie on bed tossing and turning, looking at the wall, the clock or checking on your phone, all these disturbed sleep and claimed to be poor quality sleep.
4. Simple Steps for Restful Nights
Comprehend that to have a good sleep, you make an effort to do it.
- Such as dimming down the lights and keeping the blue light from the electronic gadgets at bay.
- Ventilating the room adequately.
- Keeping the room dark.
- De-stressing and relaxing by listening to some meditative music.
- A calm room is all that you require to swoop in for a good sleep.
5. Investing in Your Sleep, Investing in Yourself
Trying out bubble baths or yoga? Paying for your gym with a personal trainer or incorporating lots of self care cosmetics to your routine? How successful are they going to be when your sleep quality is poor? Somehow, in our busy life, we have failed to prioritize lists. The best self care you should invest in is your ‘Sleep’. It aids in improvising your overall well-being.
Prioritize sleep now and watch the wonders happen the next day. You know well that oiling a machine is solely done for its smooth function. Do you not think our body needs a recovery phase too? Trust me you will feel a lot better after a good sleep. Make it your habit from today and you can start your day singing, “you are unstoppable!”
