Sleep is a normal part of life, and while some people try to get by with as little as possible, packing their days and nights with activities, chores, work and play, sleep is important to health and to best possible performance every day.
It's been said that people can live longer without food than they can without sleep. A basic need of the human body, sleep is also a basic need of the human mind. During sleep many of our body's major organs and regulatory systems carry on to work actively. Some parts of the brain actually increase their activity radically, and the body produces more of certain hormones.
Sleep is a time where the brain can recharge. During, the brain shuts down and repairs neurons and exercises synapses that may slowly break down and weaken with lack of activity. This could be a time for fine change the synaptic connections that get stronger, weaken, break and reform. Sleep, is a time to shift those synaptic connections back to their original mean after they have been cluttered up during the day. It gives the brain a chance to reorganize information to find answers to problems, to process new information, and to organize and archive memories. The brain strengthens memory and categorizes everything learned in a particular order, and erases the useless, impertinent information. Also while we sleep, metabolism slows down as well as energy consumption.
Also, it is a time for rest for our heart and lungs. People with normal or high blood pressure have a 20-30% reduction in pressure and a 10-20% heart rate reduction. It gives the body a chance to replace chemicals and repair muscles, other tissues and aging or dead cells. It may also have an effect on strengthening the immune system. Sleep has a healing effect in that it gives our bodies and minds time to rejuvenate, reenergize, and restore. We organize long-term memory, integrate new information, and repair and renew tissue, nerve cells and other chemicals. It's a matter of energy conservation. When we are sleeping, humans are conserving energy when it would be unlikely to find food if we stayed awake.
Missing a little bit of sleep once in a while happens to everyone. Usually out bodies and minds react to lack of sleep by feeling groggy, foggy and just a tad slow. This is what interferes with daily routines and diminishes the ability to function at one's peak. It also causes a person's mood to be less positive. If sleeplessness becomes chronic, the consequences become more severe. When experiencing chronic loss over a period of time it will seriously diminish one's ability to perform work on the job or at home. Sluggishness, forgetfulness, lack of concentration, slower reactions to things and general depression will begin to take over.
