Be Your BEST - Sleep

By
Real Estate Agent with Crye-Leike

Do you ever feel like you are dragging to get through the day, you cant concentrate and feel forgetful.  For us to all be the best we can be as a Realtor or any profession we need sleep.

Sleep is an important part of your health and energy.  It ranks right up there with diet and exercise.  Sleep gives you energy to play, work and study.

While you sleep, your body stores memories.  And not sleeping enough can make you clumsy-that's not good!  While you slep, your brain releases the hormones that control your growth.  If you don't sleep enough, you may be tired, cranky, klutzy and forgetful.

While scientists are baffled about why all this recharging can happen only when we sleep, they all agree that we do need to get enough sleep.

While there are a million things that could be done make sure your getting your sleep.

I am a firm believer in getting enough rest.  It makes such a difference we when get enough sleep and adequately recharge.  Great post! Melatonin works great for me if I'm having trouble sleeping.

Sleep is very important.  If I do not have enough sleep I do not think clearly and I feel irritable.  I also drink too much coffee if I do not get enough sleep and then I am jittery and sleepy.  Not a good mix for me.

As I was getting up this morning after not getting nearly enough sleep, I said to my husband I can't wait till Sunday..That is my sleep catch up day. I know I can't make up for the sleep I do not get each night, but it sure feels good to take my Sunday naps.......Each day I say I am going to get to bed earlier and it just does not happen. Oh well, you know what they say...nobody ever died from lack of sleep....whoever they are!!!

 

Happy Friday!!
