LIFE BALANCE: Getting a good night’s sleep is important to overall health and well-being
By Leanne Phillips
There is not much that will ruin your day more than not getting a good night’s sleep the night before. Sleep is not a luxury–it is a necessity. A lack of sleep will affect your ability to focus and your ability to concentrate. A lack of sleep will also have an adverse effect on your performance. You will not do your best job if you are running on little or no sleep.
Contrary to popular belief, there is no such thing as “catching up” on sleep. Once you have lost sleep, it is gone forever. Extended periods of sleep deprivation will eventually affect your health. The concept of beauty sleep, however, is not a myth. Getting sufficient sleep each night is one of the best (and most inexpensive) beauty aids on the market.
