    About this ebook

    Is poor sleep affecting your health and enjoyment of life? 

    Many people grow up not realizing the importance of sleep.  Good sleep is taken for granted.  Not only this, but it is often the first thing that people skimp on when faced with deadlines and hectic schedules. 

    They find themselves becoming more and more sleep-deprived, which has negative consequences on health - increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and more!  Yet sleep improvement is something that anybody can do.

    You just need to understand how sleep works, what negatively impacts it, and how to make very simple adjustments to your lifestyle to get the sleep that your body craves. 

    Here is what you will learn in this eBook:

      Introduction

      Sleep serves both a physical and psychological need that is required throughout your life.  You know that sleep is important, and that you don’t feel well when you don’t get it or enough of it. Unfortunately, in our fast-paced, modern world filled with technology, sleep is often the first thing we sacrifice. 

      After all, we all only get 24 hours each day.  Why not try to fit as many things as possible into these 24 hours?  Perhaps you have an important project that is due tomorrow.  Well, you can always cut out a couple of hours of sleep to get it done, right? 

      Unfortunately, that is how more and more people are viewing sleep.  They see it as an annoyance or an interruption to getting more things done in a day.  Teenagers and adults are all suffering the negative consequences of this attitude towards sleep.  Health suffers when sleep is put on the back burner. 

      However, some people are trying to prioritize sleep.  They really want to get more sleep or want to sleep better, but they continue to wake up feeling unrefreshed.  Perhaps, the stress in their lives is interfering with their sleep, or there are things that they need to change to get the sleep their bodies crave. 

      In any case, it is time to see sleep for what it really is - a necessary component to good health, both in the short-term and the long-term.  Getting adequate, quality sleep is just as important as what you eat and how much you exercise.  Not getting enough sleep is linked to numerous health concerns and diseases.  Even serious diseases, such as cancer, have been linked to inadequate levels of sleep and disrupted sleep systems in people who work shifts. 

      When discussing sleep, particular emphasis has to be given to the lightbulb, and its role in sleep problems.  The lightbulb will be discussed later in this book. 

      The main focus of this book is to help you understand the stages of and purpose for sleep, the importance of sleep for your health, and some ways to start improving your sleep.  The truth is that you may not realize that sleep plays an even more important role in your health than just keeping you from being tired.  Once you understand this, you will never again underscore the importance of sleep for your health. 

      The Different Stages of Sleep

      Sleep is a necessity.  It allows your brain and body to recover after periods of wakefulness.  Specifically, sleep restores your body’s ability to function, to repair body tissues, create hormones, consolidate memories and learning, and regulate mood.  Sleep makes up such an important part of our lives, that there are people who spend the majority of their careers dedicated to the topic.

      Whether you experience an occasional day of sleepiness, or you feel like you spend most of your days in a sleep-deprived state, it is important to understand the different stages of sleep.  This can then help you improve the quality
