Catch your Z's

March 19 starts Sleep Awareness Week



According to the Harvard Women's Health Watch, here are 5 reasons why you should not scrimp on sleep:
1. Cognitive Function and Memory. Sleep helps the brain commit new information to memory through a process called memory consolidation.
2. Metabolism and Weight. Lack of sleep may cause weight gain by affecting the way our bodies store and metabolize carbohydrates, as well as altering hormones that affect our appetites.
3. Mood. Sleep deprivation may lead to irritability, impatience, inattention and general emotional malaise.
4. Cardiovascular Health. Serious sleep disorders have been linked to hypertension, irregular heartbeats, and increased stress hormone levels.
5. Disease. A lack of sleep can interfere with immune function. Conversely, studies have shown that adequate amounts of sleep may help reduce cancer risk.

EVERYBODY NEEDS SLEEP.  FIND OUT WHAT CHANGES NEED TO BE MADE IN YOUR LIFE SO THAT YOU CAN SLEEP BETTER AND FEEL BETTER!!
