*STOP SLEEP DEPRIVATION!*
It's a normal thing to say "all play and no work makes Jack a dull
boy" but then you have to look at the other side of it which says "all
work and no play makes Jack moronic". Most of the times we tend to act
frivolously when it comes to our 'well being' even to an extent of
Sleep deprivation. Sleep deprivation simply means the condition of not
having enough sleep,maybe as a result of irregular routines or reasons
best known to us.
Research suggests that society pays too little attention to our
"body-clock"-and adolescents in particular have a late-running
biological rhythm. Due to this pragmatic statement,Uk scientists are
preparing a major study to test the idea that "Starting School at
10:00am" could have huge benefits for teenagers.
Dr Paul kelley,a primary care physician with specialty in Family
medicine said that adolescents effectively lose up to two hours of
sleep per day,which is "a huge society issue".
In some countries(especially in Africa),sleep deprivation has
become prevalent and traditional in the sense that we now have the
mentality of "No sleep till I have enough".We should not force
ourselves to be per takers of this unreasonable tradition(No sleep
till I have enough). In fact,Dr Kelley also stated in an interview
that "the body-clock of most people between age 10 and 55 is not well
suited to rising early",so don't stress it!
Most people wake up to alarms,because they don't naturally wake
up at the time when they have to get up and go to work. It's really
just that this age group,say 14-24 in particular,is more deprived than
any other sector or division.
But WHY do ADOLESCENTS like to SLEEP in later and go to bed
later? WHAT is causing this?..Well,you will find all about that in my
next article-THINGS THAT RUIN A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP(and their
solutions).
