The Healing Power of Sleep

Sleep is good for your mind, body, and spirit.

Healing Power of Sleep

Spring is in the air and cherry blossoms and magnolias are in full bloom in my neighborhood. As the days get longer, so do my To-Do lists. The sunny skies and warmer weather entice me to stay up as late as I can. And, it takes tremendous will power to turn off the lights and go to sleep while daylight lingers a bit longer each day. Yet, I have learned over the years, that I need to get eight hours of sleep to be healthy and productive.

Here is an article by Dr. Oz about how to get a good night’s sleep, and another on the surprising health benefits of sleep.

So go ahead and snooze. Sleep is good for your mind, body and spirit.
