More than 70 million Americans are affected by sleep deprivation, with people spending $24 billion a year just trying to fall asleep.
Are you one of them? Did you get enough rest last night?
May is National Sleep Month. The health benefits of adequate sleep are far reaching and include proper hormone regulation, appetite regulation, improved learning and memory, improved mood, and a healthier heart. Additionally, proper sleep habits are key to successful weight management, as well as improved fitness and athletic performance.
This month, focus on setting yourself up for success with an optimal night's rest each day. Assess your current evening routine and identify areas for improvement. Each week set a goal or two so that by the end of the month you are consistently sleeping 7-9 hours most nights.
Let me know how you do!
