“With academic demands and extracurricular activities, the kids are going nonstop until they fall asleep exhausted at night. There is not an emphasis on the importance of sleep, as there is with nutrition and exercise,” she said. “They say they are tired, but they don’t realize they are actually sleep-deprived. And if you ask kids to remove an activity, they would rather not. They would rather give up sleep than an activity.” (Richter).

People who are persistently sleep deprived are more likely to have high blood pressure, diabetes, and narrowed blood vessels. Each of these can decrease blood flow inside the brain. Brain cells need a lot of oxygen and sugar, so blood flow problems could affect their ability to work properly“ (LeWine).]]> 2019-02-12 16:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330415251 Helpful Tip if you Can’t Sleep 3B mblessing001 https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330415315 “If you can’t fall asleep after 15 to 20 minutes, get out of bed and go into another room. Do something relaxing, such as reading quietly with a dim light. Don’t watch television or use a computer, since the light from their screens has an arousing effect. When you feel sleepy, get back into bed. Don’t delay your scheduled wake-up time to make up for lost sleep” (LeWine).]]> 2019-02-12 16:25:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330415315 Sleeping Too Much Vs Too Little 4B mblessing001 https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330415364 “What about people who sleep too much? People who spend more than nine or 10 hours a night in bed often have poor sleep quality. So for both too little and too much sleep, the important number may be the hours of quality sleep” (LeWine).

This is why if you take a short nap during the day, you’re still able to fall asleep at night. But if you take a nap long enough to fall into deep sleep, you have more difficulty falling asleep at night because you reduced your need for sleep.”]]> 2019-02-13 16:00:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330871455 How the Circadian Rythm Affects the Body 1E mblessing001 https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330879495 “Your circadian rhythm is what makes you feel alert or sleepy, depending on the time of day. When you let the rhythm wake you up naturally, you feel alert because you were ready to stop sleeping. When an alarm forces you to wake up before your body is ready, you feel groggy, as you may have interrupted a deep stage of sleep.”]]> 2019-02-13 16:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330879495 How to Prep Yourself for Sleep 2E mblessing001 https://padlet.com/mblessing001/x5b1ypey9zex/wish/330879530 “An hour before your new bedtime, start a bedtime ritual to get ready for sleep.
