 Curl up with your pillows and your blankie. Close your eyes and dream so soft and hazy. – Pooh

images2When Michaela was little, I read Winnie the Pooh stories to her before bed. Sometimes she’d fall asleep while I read.

And when she slept she looked so angelic.

Sleep is important for all ages. So much happens while we sleep.

Sleeping promotes a healthy immune system.

Tissue growth and repair occur.

And levels of the hormone cortisol dip at bed time and promote alertness in the morning.

Years ago when I decided to embrace a healthier life-style, I found eating right and exercise alone made little difference in my efforts to get fit. It wasn’t until I made up my mind to get a good eight hours of sleep each night, that I began to see results.

One-third of our lives are spent sleeping, and sleep plays a direct role in how successful the other two-thirds of our lives can be.

So curl up with your pillows and your blankie. Close your eyes and dream so soft and hazy.

Do you get enough sleep? How did Daylight Savings Time affect your sleep last night?
