Sleep helps solving problems

I agree that sleep is a must to to the human body. It helps relax the body overall. That enhances our working capacity further when we are awake. However, a sound sleep for a few hours is better than a disturbed sleep over small periods. Did you know that one of the most intelligent men on the planet Thomas Alva Edison slept for only one hour everyday. No wonder he achieved so much in life. Imagine the amount of time he had at his disposal.

Hi ravisivan Sleep certainly rejuvenates one from a long day. I personally cannot take naps at all during the day. Doing so causes me to wake up with such a bad headache. Has been this way for years. But certainly after a long day, I certainly feel like a brand new person the next day. That with an average of 6 - 7 hours of sleep.

I am screwed :O because I love to work at night. So needless to say I don't give time for my brain to have a good night sleep ;) I read it somewhere that 10 days without sleeping can kill a man faster than a heart stroke.

sleeping enables our body and mind to rest and recharge. we can be fully functional if we are well rested and have adequate sleep. studies also proved that sleep affects of body weight.

We can't work non-stop without take any rest and sleep is part of resting activity. It is time when the body does most of its repair work- muscle tissue is rebuilt and restored, the of growth hormone etc. I noticed that when I use and spend my day thinking and creating I am very sure it uses up my energy stores. So with sleep I can restoring my mental energy and my mind will stay fresh with new ideas! Meanwhile if I don't get enough sleep it will affect my thinking, personalities and my sense of humor too~

The time we spend sleeping is the time the body uses to heal and rejuvenate itself. The mind takes this time to 'clear the clutter' of the day so to speak. Interesting little side bar, the brain stores everything we see and hear during our waking hours, the mind (subconscious) arranges it in 'retrievable files'. There are several excellent studies on sleep deprivation available both online and offline. In the past it was known that lack of sleep would make someone vulnerable both physically and mentally. The Inquisitors of the Inquisition favored sleep deprivation as a means of 'softening up' victims for torture in order to gain a 'confession' more readily. People have rhythms, these rhythms dictate our body's necessities, such as sleep, food, simple rest etc. The study of sleep and the patterns of the human body and mind is a fascinating subject.

It is true indeed that sleep helps a lot in solving problems. If we get up without enough sleep, we would feel tired without having enough energy and would not find our mind as creative as those days when we have enough sleep. So a good sleep is to some degree a guarantee to enable us to work and study effectively and efficiently. Thanks for your nice discussion, ravisivan.

Thanks for sharing this information. Yes, I think sleep really helps in relaxing our mind and when our mind is relaxed, we can think better and decide properly. I also experienced when I am lack of sleep, my decision making is very poor. I cannot concentrate well and feel weak. Sleeping is really a good way to relax our mind and the best medicine for improving our mindset and concentration. Happy mylotting and God speed!

this is true! i find it very hard to function well if i have not slept properly the night before. I also quit my night shift job because it just isnt easy to sleep during the day.

Yes I agree to it. Myself is a proof of it as I can fully concentrate in my study after a sound sleep. Otherwise, how much I memories things it wont work at all. Sleep is good for every activity to do in our daily life. Its what a human body must required properly like necessity of food for our body functions. Good sleep or on time or sufficient sleeping make us healthy as well as good communicator, problem solver, and everything that link with our brain :-)

Sleep is essential to our body. It helps to repair our body daily functions, reduce toxics from the body and reenergize your systems! So, YES, it helps in solving problems too. Your mind is better after sleep, PLUS music is on!

Hi, This happend once for my uncle. In over a month i tried to find out about some money problem. And after one night he had found out of all his problem. That was amazing

I agree with you 100%. I recently read in an article that the lack of sleep also causes aggressive behavior as well as it stops the weight loss. That's why I wish I could have some more sleep at night but... :)

So true! I think sleep can definitely help improve decision making skills, hence the very popular idiom "I'll sleep on it." The only problem is my thoughts keep me awake, and at times I find it really hard to fall asleep when I have a lot on my mind.

It is true that sleep can help clear things up. When there's something on my mind, something that's just bothering me, I find that, after a good night's sleep, things seem clearer. And I know that I've talked to friends and family who feel the same way.

thats pretty true. After a good sleep mind is really very fresh. You can easily make any decision with a fresh mind easily. And a fresh mind can learn anything, why only games, easily. And my personal observation is people who take a good sleep are more happy and smarter.

Sound Sleep is must for every person. When a person do not get sound sleep, it shows he has health problem.We in India normally see a hard working person sleep soundly in the street or under a tree.He has a good physique too. To get sound sleep, we should work in many ways. walking, gardening, cycling ,swimming or any work at home which get us tired and on that day we get sound sleep. Also the small exercise make our body healthy.

Who doesn't need rest? A few minutes rest can help energize our mind and body. Mental exercise is a torture and once it's burned out, one cannot make good decisions. In fact i notice that when i lack sleep i feel irritated, annoyed and would snap at anybody who comes into my way. Thus, I agree that nothing is more important than taking a rest and the only way to rest our mind and body is a sound sleep.

I agree with you. When I have some things that has been bothering me, I usually think about it before I sleep and sometimes, when I wake up, I have a clear perspective on how to resolve it.

That's pretty interesting. I usually wake up feeling in a better mood. I guess that's where the phrase "Sleep on it" came from. I just wish there were more hours in the day for everyone to get a little more sleep. :) haha.
