This week I've been pondering about the topic of
sleep.
My musing led
me to discover how the lack of sleep can affect us on some many levels.
Most of us
encounter lack of sleep at some time or another for a variety of reason but
what really happens to us when we get the right sleep.
I'm not referring to
the occasional night of sleeplessness but the chronic burning the candle at
both ends.
My question how does
it affect our aging process?
I'm sitting
here at the computer and I'm reminded of the fables of old about the witch and
the beautiful princesses.
I wonder if
those cantankerous old witches were so scared and worried over everything they
lost sleep over it and hence they became wrinkled and dried up looking.
Did they lose
their vitality due to lack of sleep? I would say so.
See if you might come
to the same conclusion.
There are amazing
reasons why we need sleep.
Not enough sleep worsens existing skin conditions
Not enough sleep detracts from your skin's natural beauty
Not enough sleep makes immune-related skin problems worse
Not enough sleep results in less beauty
Not enough sleep accelerates the aging process
Not enough sleep contributes to weight gain
Sleep Your Way to Better Skin
and Hair
There are set times when our body clock
dictates that various processes take place in hair and skin.
What Happens While You Sleep
From 8pm to 11pm is the time for hydration
and stimulation,
While 11pm to 3am is the time for
nutrition and regeneration,
From 3am to 5am is the time for
resting.'
Of course, very few adults are in bed
at 8pm and, as the hormone that triggers sleep - melatonin - peaks at around
11pm, this is the time we should naturally get tired.
Seven or eight hours of sleep are ideal
for most of us. More than that can mean we wake up looking puffy and feeling
sluggish.
Chronic lack of sleep, or poor-quality
sleep, has an incredibly negative effect on the way we feel - and on the way we
look.
Cellular renewal of our
skin is fastest at night, and this is why we are told night-creams can work
wonders.
But the fact is, nothing will help our looks if we don't get the
quality of sleep we need.
While sleeping, levels of adrenaline and
corticosteroids drop and the body starts to produce growth hormone.
This is
when the repair and growth processes kick in.
The following may help:
Go to bed at a regular time.
Set the alarm for the same time each
day - even weekends - to develop a regular sleep-wake rhythm.
Make sure the bedroom is dark.
Start and each day with great skin care products as well.
