Cota St. • RO. Box 430 Shelton, WA 98584 (360) 426-4412 Sleep is more important to our health than many people may realize. Getting enough rest is a piece of it, but getting good rest is the key. If you have ever been curi- ous about the structure of your sleep, and how sleep unfolds throughout the evening, you may want to learn about a con- cept called sleep architecture. Much like regular architec- ture, sleep architecture refers to the way that sleep is, well, "built." The idea of sleep archi- tecture helps us to understand By JEANNE the pattern of the various stag- es of sleep, how these sleep pat- REttWALDT toms change as we get older, and what impact sleep disorders may have on sleep architecture. According to www.verywell.com, there are generally four to five differ- ent sleep cycles during a and each of the different from about 90 to 120 minutes. REM sleep, also known as Rapid Eye Move- ment sleep, is the deepest state of sleep. REM sleep is the state of sleep where dreams oc- cur. Consistent interruptions to REM sleep can lead to a host of poten- tial issues, such as sleep paralysis. As we get older, both the amount and the quality of our sleep may change. given night cycles lasts Sleep makes you feeJ better, but its impo ance goes way beyonct just boost ug your mood or bauisbing uncter- eye ckcles, Slow-wave sleep often decreases as we get older and lighter sleep increases. As a result of this shift, it becomes easier to awaken throughout the night and harder to fall, and stay asleep at night. As a result, more time may be spent awake, leading to insomnia, and a host of other potential problems. Of- ten, people are then forced to take naps during the day in order to make up for lost sleep. Sleep makes you feel better, but its importance goes way beyond just boosting your mood or banishing under-eye circles. Adequate sleep is a key part of a healthy lifestyle and can benefit your heart, weight, mind, and more. During sleep you can strengthen memories or =practice" skills learned while you were awake. Too much or too little sleep is as- sociated with a shorter lifespan -- al- though it's not clear if it's a cause or effect. (Illnesses may affect sleep pat- terns too.) Inflammation is linked to heart disease, stroke, diabetes, arthritis and premature aging. Research indicates that people who get less sleep -- six or fewer hours a night -- have higher blood levels of inflammatory proteins than those who get more. In addition to consolidating memories, or making them stronger, your brain appears to reorganize and restructure them, which may result in more creativity as well. A Stanford University study found that college foot- ball players who tried to sleep at least 10 hours a night for seven-to-eight weeks improved their average sprint time, had less daytime fatigue and more stamina. (Take note, high school football coaches out there.) Children be- tween the ages • of 10 and 16 who have sleep disor- dered breathing, which includes =noring, sleep apnea, and other types of inter- rupted breathing during sleep, are more likely to have problems with at- tention and learn- ing, according to a 2010 study in the Journal Sleep. This could lead to "sig- nificant functional impairment at school," the study authors wrote. Sleep has also been shown to sharpen attention, contribute toward healthy weight, lower stress levels, help avoid accidents, and maintain over all wellbeing. My take-away message is to give this body a chance for deep, healthy sleep by turning off iPads and phones well before hitting the sack, lowering light levels in the home in the evening to mimic the sun. Humans have been living for cons with the cycles of the sun, so doesn't it make sense to pre- pare this body for sleep by dimming the lights? Try listening to soothing music or sounds of nature to help relax the body and prepare it for sleep. Sweet dreams, friends. • Jeanne Rehwaldt is executive di- rector of Mason Matters.
