Good sleep can only be had when one’s bed and bedroom is quiet and comfortable enough to invite sleep into it.
Loss of sleep causes a form of starvation, for the food we eat is digested and transformed into new muscle, brain, blood, and nerve-cells only while we are asleep.
“Sleep recharges the exhausted body batteries and fills the organic furnace with fresh fuel. Sleep is a positive process–not a negative one. It isn’t merely a stopping of bodily activity. It’s a substitution of a constructive process for a destructive one.”
“Only while we are unconscious do we fully recuperate. The deeper the sleep, the quicker the recuperation. The lighter ,and more disturbed the sleep, the more we need of it—the longer it takes to effect repair.”
‘The quality of sleep is everything. An hour’s nap, under favorable condition, is more reconstructive than an entire night’s restless, dream ridden sleep. Many who sleep deep’ are able to do with four or five hours of it—while light sleepers might require twelve or thirteen hours to gain the same degree or recuperation.
Go to sleep when your tired, get up when you are rested. That’s the only proper universal rule. When You are rested you’ll awake. In fact, you
couldn’t sleep any more—just then—even if you wanted to. And, have no fear of injuring your health by oversleeping. No one ever got too much good natural sleep or did his health any harm by staying in bed until he or she felt rested. But if you don’t feel rested, there is a cause for it. Either there is something wrong with your bed, or you’re not getting enough oxygen; meaning your bedroom is stuffy or not ventilated properly; perhaps sleep apnea —or you could be anemic. If this is the case, please see your Doctor for a physical to get your overall health checked.

What a great resource!
This is one of your most amazing blog posts ever Trapper. Thank you for this amazing gift — elegantly simple yet so difficult for so many to achieve. I cannot wait until we interview you on City Enlightenment show next week so that you can share your pearls of wisdom with our audience. Thank you again Trapper!
Well said! Everyone deserves a good nights sleep to be alert, and reach their highest potential. Since our body is our vessel, it is important to take good care, and with that, a proper nights sleep is needed to function properly. Sleep is just as excersise, eating right, etc. Health is so important, and I am thankful for you writing about the importance of a good nights sleep. There are so many blogs about “how to eat right” and so many people have their two cents about that, with misleading facts about what food is good or not good. However, a good nights sleep is undoubtably needed, no matter what! I am grateful to you for talking about sleep wtih facts that are helpful and completely right.
