Sleep used to be ignored. Sleep is more than banishing under-eye circles and replenishing yourself. Adequate sleep is a key part of a healthy lifestyle, and can benefit your heart, weight, mind, and more
Some amazing benefits of sleep are:
1. Improves Memory:
During sleep you can strengthen memories or “practice” skills learned while you were awake, this process is called consolidation
2. Increases Life span:
Too much or too little sleep decreases lifespan —although it’s not clear if it’s a cause or effect.
3. Curbs inflammation:
People who have a regular sleep of atleast 6-7 hours everyday have lower risk of inflammation, which is associated with heart disease, stroke, diabetes, arthritis, and premature aging.
4. Strengthens creativity:
brain reorganizes and restructure the memories and emotions which helps in strengthening creativity.
5. Decreases Fatigue:
Regular interrupted sleep decreases tiredness and increases stamina
6. Strengthens Attention:
Regular sleep helps in capturing attention which again helps in improving our performance.
7. Maintaining weight:
Sleep and metabolism are controlled by the same sectors of the brain. When you are not sleepy, you tend to get hungry quite easily; so if you are trying to maintain your weight, try planning to your bed time early.
