SLEEP - AN IMPORTANT PART OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
In fact, sleep is just as important as food, water and exercise. Sleep removes accumulated toxins in the body. When we are in the deep sleep phase, the body's cells repair and restore themselves.

This also applies to skin cells. If you do not get the deep and healing sleep, the skin loses its glow and becomes gray and sad to look at.

We can not sleep when we grow old pigeons. Today, when we are online 24-7, our health is being challenged. We need to have adequate and regular sleep. Persistent sleep deprivation has long been linked to being overweight, weakened immune system, depression, etc. You get the best sleep between 22.00 and kl. 06.00.

If you sleep too little you risk,
-stress and irritation
-lack of energy
- dark circles under the eyes
skin without glow
disease if it is for a long time.

LIGHT RESETS THE INTERNAL CLOCK
Our circadian rhythm is controlled by the body's melatonin production. When it is dark around, the substance in the body makes melatonin drowsy and we fall asleep. The brain has its very own "sleeping medicine", which pumps out into the brain as long as we are in the dark.

When the light returns in the morning or we turn on a light, a message is sent from the eyes and on to an area of ​​the brain with the message to stop the production of melatonin. It is a signal to us that we must see to it that we wake up again.

THE FOUR PHASES OF SLEEP
Sleep is divided into different phases, which take turns: drowsy, light sleep, deep sleep and dream sleep. The first three stages are called N-REM (non rapid eye movement), and the fourth is called REM (rapid eye movement). This sleep cycle continues throughout the night. A sleep cycle typically lasts between 90 and 110 min.
Dreams stop in REM sleep and you fall back into the first stage of sleep again.

Help sleep on the way,
-don't eat after noon. 20.00
blackout curtains
-ventilate well and keep the bedroom cool when it's bedtime
-no activity with the electronics in the bedroom.

SLEEP HEALTHY AND BEAUTIFUL.
