Sleep
Not having a sufficient amount of quality sleep can make you feel stress, anxious, unmotivated and negatively affect your immune system. Additionally, it can lead to a decrease in cognitive focus & memory recall and increased chances of injuries due to impaired concentration.
Sleep deprivation is an epidemic in our society that can have serious consequences for our physical and mental health. Not getting enough quality sleep can lead to a decrease in cognitive focus, increased stress, anxiety and a weakened immune system. It is essential that we make sure we are getting sufficient quality sleep in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
A lack of adequate sleep can result in a number of negative health effects, including heart disease, stroke, hypertension, depression and anxiety. Sleeping is when your body and immune system work their hardest to repair and rejuvenate themselves. Aim for 7-8 hours of restful sleep a night to stay healthy. Remember that relaxation is key for both physical and mental wellbeing.
