Everyone needs SLEEP...

It's What's Good for your Health

 Rest is essential for both mental and physical health!

The last few nights have been UN-restful for ME. I don't know why. But I do know I need some DEEP Sleep....I'm tired!

I hate waking up tired!

An article from the Mayo Clinic states that Adults need 7-9 hours of sleep a night! Sleep quality is important too! Interrupted sleep is not quality sleep. 
I've been waking up every hour...looking at the clock, groaning and laying back down! WHY??? I hate that!

It's almost as bad as when your mind is racing with a MILLION thoughts 

AND..., you can't sleep! But you are too tired to get up!

OR, when you can't sleep and you DO get UP...and watch mindless TV for a few hours! So, then YOU are bored, sleepless and TIRED!

I don't like any LIGHT when I SLEEP! I swear I can see through my EYELIDS!

So I wear a sleeping mask! But when I CAN'T SLEEP that doesn't help either!

SO, I have been tossing and turning the last few nights!

This morning....I was pleasantly surprised to wake up at 5:45AM!

ONLY, because I had slept ALL night! BUT... I really wasn't ready to GET up!

So I laid there! Hmmm, falling asleep again! 
YES!

A DEEP SLEEP!

WHOA!!! 
What is that???

Suddenly, I'm awakened...My body jerked and I GROANED!

It that a BUZZ SAW?

NO!

It was MY husband's battery operated TOOTHBRUSH!!!!

Now, it's not that EARLY...for a workday.

BUT, THIS WAS SUNDAY!!!!

Grumble, Grumble,...I mumbled into MY pillow! 

Just then, HUBBY questioned my GRUMBLE MUMBLES.

"I JUST FELL INTO A DEEP SLEEP!", I groaned.

You did? He looked puzzled!

BUT it's been only 15 minutes since you woke up!

"OH...

WELL...IT felt longer. And IT was a DEEP sleep!", I said. 

...THEN, I climbed out of BED!

Maybe I will take a NAP...later.

Restful sleep helps your total health:

Stress, Inflammation, Boosts your memory, Helps you lose weight, keeps you alert and helps with health issues...plus more!
Any-hoo...

Right after my afternoon NAP, I need to go exercise! I'm hoping the POOL will be warm enough today! We are getting a few chilly nights with the fall season starting.

My DREAM (year-round) POOL! Ha-Ha, I can dream. Dream on & on that is!!!
Go exercise &

Sleep Restfully with Style...

Do it with Style...
