5 steps to a better night’s sleep

Late nights filled with work, T.V. or video games deprive the body for a chance to heal, detox, and repair. Sleep is absolutely essential to human health and well being.
For the average person, a good nights rest may not be easily achievable. Thusly, you’re obviously going to feel tired the following day. Causes for sleep deprivation usually have something to do with our daily lives including factors such as work, emotional stress, or responsibilities that may seem insurmountable. The irony of this equation is that sleep will better help you deal with life situations like the ones listed above.

While there is no set guideline to the amount of sleep one should get every night, there is a general thought among professionals that 7 hours to 8 hours per night is sufficient. Additionally, there are studies that have concluded that more than 8 hours per night might be negative on the human well-being.

For some, sleeping may seem like a shortcoming and they should work longer hours to achieve great goals. Interestingly enough, sleep is the key to optimal function and sets up the next day’s performance. Sleeping strengthens your sensory system, unwinds muscles, and rests the brain. Our brain NEEDS rest. If one wants to perform at their best, a good nights rest is essential.
In the words of Paracelsus, “Man is ill because he is never still.”

    1. Getting the GH Window – Getting your body to produce Growth Hormone has been shown to aid in the sleep. A great exercise for this is The Vasper System.
    2. Make The Bedroom a Sleep Cave – Our Circadian Rhythm is how the body knows when to rest. The darker, cooler, and quieter a bedroom is will increase how well you sleep.
    3. No Screens 2 hours before sleep:

Put the phone down! And the IPad too! The Artificial light emitted by electrons is bad for our health late at night because it throws off our Biological Clocks or circadian Rhythm. And according to Harvard Health, “… research shows that it may contribute to the causation of cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and obesity.

    1. Read a book instead

– Reading a book will help your brain be less stimulated and therefore help you to fall asleep easier.

    1. Listen to Delta Wave Music:

This is a lesser-known secret that is AWESOME. Our brain goes through different waves and the Delta Wave, the slowest wavelength, is also known as the “Deep Sleep Wave”. By listening to Delta Music, you can help your brain align with the frequency.

(Remember, the artificial light and screw up your sleeping, so it’s best to have this on in the other room where you can hear it, but the light is not seen.)

To sum it up, lack of sleep will most certainly cause detrimental harm. The good news, however, is that there are easy ways to adjust habits and increase the amount of rest you get per night.
