Not getting a good night\u2019s sleep isn\u2019t just feeling tired the following day; you may notice you can\u2019t focus properly and you might not make the wisest decisions. These are proven side effects of not sleeping well, but there are also myths that many people seem to believe.<\/p>\n<p>Being functional at work means you\u2019re sleeping well. If you chronically sleep poorly, your body will adapt to that feeling of tiredness, tricking you into thinking that\u2019s just the way you should feel. Your body may not feel tired, but your brain might be sleep deprived and it will let you know this by affecting your ability to remember things or making you irritable when dealing with co-workers.<\/p>\n<p>You need eight hours of sleep. No, you don\u2019t necessarily eight hours. While it\u2019s considered the magic number, there are people that can wake up feeling rested and alert on seven hours of sleep. A tiny population can also make do with five, but that\u2019s rare. Keep in mind your mattress and its quality will also factor heavily into those hours.<\/p>\n<p>You can \u201ccatch up\u201d or make up for sleep. Only getting six hours of sleep on weekdays and then sleeping in for nine or ten on Saturday isn\u2019t doing anything for you. Instead, try and get into the habit of waking up at the same time each day, even weekends.<\/p>\n<p>This update is by Brickell Mattress.
