#1 priority -- finding time to get enough sleep

Posted on Mar 26th 2007 2:57PM by Brian White
How much sleep do you get every night? Some will answer six hours, while others stretch for a solid eight hours of sack time each night. Is there a correct answer? According to experts, there sure it.

Although it is hard for many of us to wind down after a long day of work, kids, spouses, chores and everything else, sleeping priorities are a biggie if you plan to function at close to optimum efficiency the next day.

It's been said that sleeplessness is this country's #1 health problem -- yet I rarely hear about it from the media. How is this so? Because it's seemingly boring to most of us -- but it shouldn't be. According to experts, we're sleeping 20% less than our peers did a 100 years ago. In an age where there is more and more thrust upon our daily lives than 100 years ago, that mix seems very dangerous to me. How about you?
