The best reasons why plenty of sleep is healthy and important!

The best reasons why plenty of sleep is healthy and important!

From childhood, we were taught that adequate sleep and going to bed early are important and good for our health.

The common recommendation is approximately 7-8 hours of sleep per night for an adult. However, recent research shows that everyone has their own unique amount of sleep needed to feel well-rested. Some people need less than 6 hours to start the day well. Others need more than 9 hours to truly feel refreshed.

Sufficient and especially restorative sleep is not only important for our well-being, but also for our immune system, because while we sleep our body regenerates and our defenses are strengthened. Of course, there are many other reasons why plenty of sleep is important for us.

Plenty of sleep promotes health!

Plenty of sleep helps us get sick less often. By strengthening our immune system, the risk of heart disease, stroke, and obesity is reduced. Bacteria and viruses also have a harder time when we sleep enough and well. Because plenty of sleep strengthens our body and promotes our defense mechanisms.

Beauty sleep!

Yes, famous beauty sleep actually exists. Studies have shown that well-rested people appear more attractive to others than tired and sleep-deprived individuals. So plenty of sleep not only makes you feel fresher and more energetic, but also causes your environment to perceive you more positively.

Protect yourself and others through more sleep!

Fatigue has more impact on our lives than you may have previously thought. Driving while tired has led to more accidents in recent years than, for example, alcohol. Most frequently, accidents occur due to the well-known microsleep phenomenon. But in everyday life, mishaps and mistakes can quickly happen through inattention. And this often stems from lack of concentration caused by sleep deprivation.

Plenty of sleep makes you smarter!

The information we learn daily must be processed by our brain. It needs enough time for this. This processing happens mainly during deep sleep. Therefore, plenty of sleep is especially important for successful learning. Only then are all learned content and information stored in long-term memory.

Productive through more sleep!

Our body needs sleep to be well-rested and awake and fit for the next day. So whoever sleeps well at night accomplishes more the next morning. Sufficient sleep helps you fully utilize your energy and reach your goals faster.
Whether in your personal life or at work: your sleep affects you and your goals.

Fit through plenty of sleep!

Only through adequate recovery and sleep phases can our energy reserves be recharged and used properly. Therefore, plenty of sleep is especially important to start strong with sports.

Creative through plenty of sleep!

Plenty of sleep not only has a positive effect on performance, it also makes us more creative. We often find solutions to problems in our sleep or come up with other good ideas or inspiration for work or our daily life. This happens most frequently during the REM sleep phase, also known as Rapid-Eye-Movement. Then the eyes move particularly quickly and we dream most intensely. In this phase we are capable of peak performance during sleep and many good ideas can be produced.

Sleep deprivation as a societal phenomenon

Frequent fatigue, restlessness, and stress increasingly rob us of our sleep. Sleep disorders, which often appear in childhood, are no longer rare. Constant availability, social and digital media lead to more fatigue and stress. We feel drained and are simply constantly tired.

Many people in Germany work more and more, and our work-life balance is falling out of balance. Therefore, sleep is decreasing, even though it is so important.

We want to enable you to sleep well and restfully again, which is why we have developed our Therapy Blankets. The blankets weigh up to 12 kg and help you fall asleep and stay asleep better. Try now with our 28-day trial sleep.
