Having the right amount of sleep is important for
individuals to stay active throughout the day and without sleep the body would
be powerless. Difficulty in performing daily activities can derive from
deprivation of sleep or inability if the individual is too weak to execute the action.
There are distinct sleeping times that range throughout a
person’s lifetime. According to the Web MD online from the article “Are you
getting enough sleep” infants sleep the most with an estimated sixteen hours of
sleep, toddlers are expected to sleep nine hours, and adults between eight to
seven hours of sleep.
Receiving enough sleep is not only important because it gives
you energy throughout the day but because sleep allows your body and mind to
proper functionally. The outcome to not enough
sleep or too much sleep can be detrimental to a person’s health. According to Web MD online, “Since drowsiness
is the brain’s last step before falling asleep, driving while drowsy can – and often
does – lead to disaster.” Not having enough sleep can innate the abilities of
an individual to successfully achieve their activities for the day and the mind
won’t function properly due to the lack of sleep.
Rest is very important for anyone and must be achieved in
order to continue to live a well rested and healthy life.
