SLEEP FULL CYCLES MEDITATION

Effortless Meditation

Greeting my friend

Many requested another episode of sleep. Joy, Mike, Jennifer. Lila and Mino, Jacob, this episode is for you. Thank you for your support and listening and for doing your mediation. I love your suggestions. Please keep them coming.

You might be getting enough hours, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you get the most restful sleep. These strategies can help.

When it comes to sleep, quantity is necessary—but so is quality. Most adults need somewhere between seven and nine hours a night to wake up feeling well-rested, but a lot depends on exactly what happens during those hours. Sleep quality ensures you get the essential physical, mental, and emotional benefits from your slumber.

It’s no secret that sleep is one of the most essential activities for good health. When we sleep, our bodies take time to:

Repair muscles, grow bones, manage hormones, sort memories

Your body cycles through the stages of sleep each night: three stages of non-REM sleep and one stage of REM sleep. During these sleep cycles, our breathing, heart rate, muscles, and brain waves are all affected differently.

Sleeping is essential for health-promoting activities like digestion, growth, and memory. Certain sleep disorders, like insomnia, can cause poor sleep quality and difficulty functioning throughout the day.

The best thing you can do to improve your sleep quality is to address any underlying conditions and work on your sleep hygiene.
