Aung May Saw (Psychology) - Why don't we sleep well?

Selling sleep

"I am one of the best sleepers. No one is so lucky as I am," Freud once said in his book The Interpretation of Dreams.

When it comes to sleep, there are actually very few lucky people. People often lose sleep for various reasons and have few opportunities to make up for lost sleep.

At least one in three people suffer from insomnia and are dissatisfied with their sleep. In the past few decades, there has been a significant increase in the use of sleeping pills to prevent insomnia (in other words, to get a good night's sleep). Some people have difficulty falling asleep even after taking sleeping pills, so they have to go to the hospital for proper treatment and consult with doctors for good advice.

The side effects of sleep deprivation can significantly affect not only our bodies but also various mental states in a short period of time.

Nowadays, spas ( relaxation centers) in the United States (especially in shopping malls) are widely used to relieve insomnia and promote sleep by providing both physical and mental relaxation and self-induction massages.

At this time, spas and relaxation centers (health-supporting rest centers) that provide massages to relax the body and mind and help them fall asleep have become places that sell sleep aids to those who are sleep deprived and need sleep.

Most people want to sleep well but wake up refreshed the next morning after a sleepless night. People who are unable to fall back asleep after a sleepless night often turn to caffeine to quench their thirst or rely on energy drinks to keep their bodies from losing energy.

Sleep, which is important not only for the body but also for the mind, is a commodity that is valuable and is a lifeline for everyone. Therefore, we should try to get enough sleep ourselves and create a full sleep. If we are unable to get enough sleep ourselves, we should try to get sleep in various ways or buy it as a commodity and use it.

Almost every day, we see many educational talks about sleep in newspapers, Internet websites, and TV shows.

If we get enough sleep (if we can sleep well), it will fully support our body's health and fitness. However, if we are sleep deprived (if we are unable to make up for lost sleep and have a sleep debt), our body will be tired and our brain and intellectual performance will not be clear, which will lead to losses in all kinds of business matters.

If you are the one who is sleep deprived, your business, social, and health will suffer. If your workers (your drivers) are tired and don't get a good night's sleep, your business will suffer greatly.

Experts often share their opinions and advice on how to prevent sleep deprivation.

According to experts, we often have worries, sadness, and failures that prevent us from sleeping well.

Some people suffer from insomnia, a sleep disorder.

If you develop insomnia, your mental and physical well-being will deteriorate, and you will face significant financial losses and health, economic, and social consequences.

When we don't get enough sleep, we face stressful situations, and when we work in a depressed state, we will only encounter mistakes.

There has been a wealth of research on the benefits of sleep and the negative effects of sleep deprivation dating back over 100 years.

Studies have shown that there is an important connection between sleep and memory since the 19th century. Studies have shown that sleep deprivation has negative effects not only on health but also on other aspects of life.

As soon as we lie down in bed, we often turn on our smartphones and check our emails, browse social media, and browse news websites.

We plan to use our smartphones for a short time before going to sleep, but there are so many things we want to read that we end up using them until well past midnight.

When you experience this situation for several days, you will lose sleep and start to face the consequences of your injuries and losses.

When you pick up your smartphone and open the internet, you are bombarded with endless amounts of external information, including social networking sites. Once you visit a website out of interest and do research, you can't get back out in a short time and end up going to bed late.

If you go to bed late, you will wake up late, and you will also be late for important appointments.

If you go to bed late and rely on your alarm clock to wake you up early, but you don't get enough sleep, you may not be able to meaningfully experience the benefits of waking up early.

Most people have a habit of checking their phones before going to bed, reading the news on their phones.

According to the scientific field that studies sleep, it is important to note that the blue light emitted by the smartphones we use can disrupt our sleep process.

Spas , which can be called relaxation rooms, often help insomniacs fall asleep, even temporarily, because they help both body and mind relax and calm down.

Therefore, spas and relaxation rooms will be considered as “sleep centers” for those who need sleep (and are sleep deprived).

Spas are a place where only the wealthy can go, creating a sense of class discrimination, even though they can provide relaxation and peace of mind for both body and mind.

So, for those who can't afford to go to a spa, there's no need to despair, but it can help reduce the negative emotions that are the root causes of sleep deprivation, such as worry, sadness, and hopelessness.
