Recently I read an article which is about getting enough sleep. I came across on the health website, health BBC website, when I browsing the internet and ironically when I staying up late. This article clearly explained how sleep affects not just our energy levels, but also our emotions, focus and memory. It also mentioned that lack of sleep can increase stress and also make people more likely to get sick. I decided to read it because it immediately caught my attention and I also had been feeling tired lately and I wanted to understand why. After reading it, I realized that I wasn’t sleeping enough and needed to change my habits immediately. What I really like about this article is that it gave some practical tips, like avoiding screams and avoiding screams before bedtime and also keeping a consistent sleep schedule. And I was motivated and even a bit guilty because it made me aware of how I had been neglecting my health and yeah how I’ve been neglecting my health and also I changed my habit after that I fell most much more energetic during the day
