Did you sleep well last night? Do you have the energy to handle all the tasks you need to do?
If you always feel fatigued and are having difficulty concentrating on the work at hand, this episode is for you. Today we are going to delve more into the importance of being aware of your sleep, the possible reasons why you do not sleep well and of course tips on how you can sleep better.
We are on the seventh part of a series of podcasts on navigating your well-being. On this journey to excellent health, we have been diving deeper into each of the magnificent seven. These seven key elements are think right, eat right, talk right, move right, sleep right, drink right, and eliminate right.
Of these areas, sleep must be in the top three because it not only has the power to energise our whole body and keep it functioning well, but it also improves our brain functions, making us more alert and focused. The right amount of sleep helps us to think, feel, and act better.
Although it is one of the natural things we do that provides multiple benefits most of us take it for granted. This deprives our bodies of the rest they need to recuperate. Sleeping less or even having an inferior quality of sleep leads to chronic illnesses and a poor mental state.
What then can we do to optimise our sleep?
Listen in to find out.
Allow me to inspire you to view it in a new light and hopefully take the necessary action to keep yourself from being less than you can be.
A rejuvenated body and sound mind are just a good night’s sleep away.
Value sleep.
Highlights:
- As human beings, we thrive on being awake in the day and being asleep at night but some of the things we do violate our circadian rhythm.
- The average number of hours we spent sleeping at night has decreased over time.
- It is important to have the proper preparation and environment for sleep.
- It is easier for the brain to secrete melatonin when the conditions are right.
