surprising benefits of sleep

Oh sorry sir. I will remember it next time.

I have read somewhere I don't exactly remember where that human can survive for weeks without taking food but if a person doesn't sleep for continuous 9 days it may cause death.

The duration of sleep according to the age groups vary. A baby needs a full 12 hour sleep. And this duration goes on decreasing as the age grows. If we know these variations, we can reap the rich benefits of Sleep.

 

A baby needs almost 18 hours of sleep..-1 +1 may happen too. However, no human can sleep beyond 10 hours, adults I mean. It leads to headache after a while.

Even I know few who sleeps more than 10 hours. And that too not sometimes but daily.

Saying that humans cannot sleep more than 10hours is a generalized statement. There are people "BORN TO SLEEP."

Till date there is no record of sleeping for more hours in guinees or limca book of awards. I feel that one should give a try for it.

Like longest kiss, longest embrace, longest sleep also can appear in record books. That day is not far off .

But I guess sir it wont be possible until and unless one is having a natural sound sleep for hours because at one time we wake up and usually we all even wake up at night also in between for drinking water or by any sound or anything. A person can only sleep for long hours in coma or if given some medicine else I guess he or she is pretending to sleep to make record.

Why not, there are people who eat while sleeping .  I know even babies drink milk while sleeping.

Lol! I dont know about people who eat while sleeping but yes often I wake up in midnight and I feel hungry and then I cook something. My mom feels very disguisted because of my this habit as she feels that if I will get married will continue this habit what my husband and in-laws will think about me.

People are the slaves of their habits. Eating in late hours is bad for health.

I agree with you. But this habit is developed because of working in late hours. Me and my brother we both have this habit of waking up to 3-4 in morning and we used to eat something so that we don't feel sleepy and now even when I sleep in early hours I feel starving in midnight.

Early to bed, early to rise is the healthy habit. Please refrain from your habit before severe damage is done to your health.

Sir actually I am an insomniac and because of work now it is turned into habit. I even consulted a doctor for suggesting me some medicines but he said at this age he can't suggest me any sleeping pills. I tried other options also like drinking hot milk, reading novels,watching movie etc but nothing works. This habit is from when I was in class 8th now 10 years have passed.

I too had this problem earlier. I could get rid of insomnia by meditation.

Ok sir. I will give a try to this solution also. Because of lack of sleeping I get headache every 3rd or 4th day.

Insomnia leads to restlessness, irrational anger and ultimately to depression. It has a drastic effect on your productivity.

True.. But it is really hard to rise early in the morning for me. I have adopted the habit in near past but now again I am late sleeper. And because of that it is really hard for me to wake up early in the morning.

I agree. Good habits, though are difficult to form in the beginning, in the long run yield  good results. If you want to have a good thing, you have to forego something . It's a trade off .

That's true. And without being consistent I will not able to achieve it. Right now it looks really hard for me. Hope for the best in future. lol
