Re: 10 tips for a perfect night sleep
Hi
When we are stressed, our body releases cortisol, our long-term stress hormone. This provides our body with energy to escape from stressful events and prepares our body to “fight or flight”. It is a stimulating hormone. In small amounts, it is helpful, but in high amounts over long periods of time, it can be harmful. • Cortisol is naturally highest in the morning then declines throughout the day and into the evening. It peaks slightly at 2 AM, 4 AM and then is at its highest again around 6 AM. If this pattern is disrupted, it may keep you awake, cause you to awaken or bring about problems falling back asleep. • You can improve sleep disruption due to stress by: • Eating every 3 to 4 hours during the day and consuming protein each time you eat. For example, a protein shake for breakfast, an apple and a few nuts around 10 AM; a salad with sliced chicken and avocado at 1 PM, mid-afternoon snack and then dinner by 7 PM, or at the latest, 8 PM. Eating in this manner will balance your blood sugars and prevent mood and energy fluctuations throughout the day. It will also prevent elevations in stress hormone, since skipping a meal is a stress on the body. When stress hormones are high, they can interfere with our ability to stay and fall asleep.
Thanks

Re: 10 tips for a perfect night sleep
Nice tips ! thanks for the sharing.A perfect night’s sleep is one of life’s pleasures, but it’s something that can elude all of us from time to time. Make your bed with sheets that are comfortable to the touch. You spend more time in bed than you do in any other spot in your house. It will do you some good to splurge a little on your bed linens. Take time to wind down before you try to call it a night. Too many people walk away from the violent television shows expecting to fall into peaceful slumber. Your brain needs time slow down if you want to get the perfect night's sleep.
