Schedule AnAppointment
A full night’s sleep is important for both your physical and mental health. However, more than a third of American adults – or 83.6 million people – get less than they need. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recently recommended that adults get at least seven hours of sleep a night and children get 10. National Sleep Awareness Week begins March 2, so now is the perfect time to learn why you should start going to bed earlier.
Daylight Saving Time ends in early November. Unlike with the spring clock change, we will gain a precious extra hour of sleep. Though most of us will see the extra hour of sleep as a gift that weekend, by the middle of the week we will be back to our usual patterns. Thus, the end of Daylight Saving Time is a perfect opportunity to evaluate our sleep habits and make sleep a priority.
