You might be surprised to learn that today is National Napping Day, but as the date originated in the US it makes perfect sense - Daylight Savings changes today in the United States! However, you don't need to be in America to appreciate the benefits of National Napping Day -- it's all about getting enough sleep, and I think we can agree that's useful all year 'round!

5 Reasons Why Rest is Important

Rest is one of the most important aspects of a healthy lifestyle. Being well-rested helps us to stay focused, and energized and boosts our ability to think clearly throughout the day. Although rest sometimes takes a back seat to work and play, it’s an essential component for continuing health and well-being that cannot be overlooked. Here are five reasons why rest is so important: First, getting enough rest each night helps with cognitive functions such as learning new information quickly and remembering details better.

For children especially, this translates into being able to absorb more at school and outperforming peers on tests. Secondly, sleep can help reduce stress levels by providing more tranquillity within the body; tiredness often brings irritability which can lead to additional stress in everyday life situations.

Thirdly, improved immunity systems allow us to ward off sicknesses easier when we pause from our hectic lives occasionally with adequate amounts of quality sleep time – meaning less time spent visiting doctors or having extended illnesses! Fourthly, restoring proper energy levels ensures individuals will have lower fatigue during entire days instead of discomfort arising at various times because of an overworked condition resulting from a lack of restful slumber.

Finally, sleeping long hours gives the mental clarity needed for overcoming complex problem-solving strategies that would otherwise require too much thought processing without being well rested. All in all, taking necessary breaks for sufficient sleep should never be underrated or compromised; doing so proves beneficial towards living up to our full potential both mentally and physically through lasting positive effects.

We're all guilty of pulling a late night or two, but sleep deprivation can be a serious issue. Getting enough quality sleep is important because;

1. Sleeping too little is linked with an increased risk of heart disease and stroke.
2. Getting enough sleep improves your concentration and overall productivity.
3. A lack of sleep is linked to depression, decreased immune function, and increased inflammation.
4. When you get enough sleep, you can eat fewer calories and have a lessened risk of weight gain.
5. You're generally in a better mood and more able to interact socially after a good night's sleep.
