Sleep it Off

Getting the proper quantity and quality of sleep is perhaps the most important method of preserving brain function; it’s also the simplest. When we sleep we give our brain time to repair damage and consolidate memory and sensory inputs accumulated during our conscious day. It’s not a coincidence that the most effective torture and coercion technique is sleep deprivation. The brain needs rest to flush chemicals and switch active foci. Even a quick nap will do wonders for your concentration and memory, as research has shown the initial stages of sleep are the most beneficial to concentration. The better-known REM, or Rapid Eye Movement, cycle of sleeping encourages sound mental health. When you can, it is best to sleep in, or sleep at least until you wake up naturally, your body and brain know best when they are rested.

The brain is a natural wonder that has perplexed scientists and philosophers for many years. It still amazes, and still so much remains to be known of man’s most valuable tool. Keep it sharp and your small investment will produce huge returns in the future.
