Food for Thought : Are You Getting Enough Sleep ???

Are you getting enough sleep? Adults need between seven and eight hours of sleep per night, while teens need at least nine. Lack of sleep can affect many aspects of our physical and mental health. Here are a few tips that may help you improve your sleep habits with nutrition:

1 . Set an evening routine that includes a good balanced meal. You should include quality proteins to help keep you feeling full longer.

2.  Avoid alcohol and caffeine, especially in the evening. Also, avoid consuming too many liquids in the evening, which can result in frequent trips to the bathroom during the night.

3 .  Some people find a light snack before bed can help promote sleep. Try half of a sandwich, a small bowl of cereal or a piece of fruit.

4 .  Regular exercise not only helps us maintain a healthy weight, it can also help your sleep cycles. Increase your physical activity for a few days and see how that helps you. However, it is not recommended to exercise immediately before bedtime, as this can keep you from falling asleep.

Words Of Wisdom :
"Some men are assholes and some men are cowards. What they both have in common is that both just stops talking to you, for no reason other than that they are assholes and cowards."

"Healing is more about accepting the pain and finding a way to peacefully co-exist with it. In the sea of life, pain is a tide that will ebb and weave, continually.
We need to learn how to let it wash over us, without drowning in it. Our life doesn't have to end where the pain begins, but rather, it is where we start to mend."

"Do the things you want to do; if you don’t, the things which keep you alive inside you die and you turn into a ghost!"

　
"The standard of a true leader is that he sets also his own rules rather than merely and blindly obeying the set of standard rules, even if it means being treated as an idiot or a crazy by the fools. And to follow his noble dream to attain his cherished goal, he employs his wisdom tool gained from his own hard core experience in an open school called life."

"My life is never perfect, but life is always a beautiful thing. I choose to see the beauty out of it. I choose to make it wonderful. I choose to love life and it loves me back in return. I may only have one life to live, but if I do it right, once is enough."

"A person’s open mind is distinctly defined by his caring soul that can readily find the real image of the people’s character and its true kind through their words reflecting and echoing the voice of their heart."
