Neverending inflation blesses us with sleepless nights. Rates are very high with the low wages. This is the worst combination ever we have seen. Currency has shown some downfalls which impact our overall economic situation. This is the factor which contributes a lot to making health worst.
People are seen as fit by their physical health but the reality is contradictory. Mental health is suffering and there is a steep rise in psychological disorders. People love to hide their mental health issues as they love to hide their financial ones. To bring bread to the table people now opt for doing work for more than 12 hours a day. At the start, humans love working for this long but with time, this thing drains people’s energy because our brain needs rest to function optimally the whole day.
Sleep is very necessary for human life because it is the rest of the body and a natural phenomenon where the body repairs its damaged tissue. Sleep-deprived people became the prey of many infections because it affects the immune system holistically.
Youth think it is great to suffer sleep and work harder whereas they must think that how they adjust their sleep and work smartly. Disturb sleeping schedule will bless you with depression, anxiety and irritability. The brain needs to rest and sleep is the best solution for it. Our organs are working 24/7 and with sleep, they got little rest. Rest is a very underrated medicine in human science because it naturally cures many things if schedule perfectly.
Working hard sounds heroic but this is a foolish thing to suffer your sleep and which indirectly affects overall health. Things will be fine if you have sound health and are productive all day long. Waking up and doing nothing will not make you progress in any kind of life parameter. Don’t be sleepless just maintain your level best.
