Be More Alert

When you sleep well, you are more alert and have a longer attention span. According to a sleep-related article published at Harvard University, your memory is tied to alertness, and you will have a better memory if you start the day fully rested.

Better Attitude

Are you not a morning person? Try getting a better night’s sleep. Studies have shown that a restful night’s sleep can help you avoid irritability and depression. Simply put, sleeping well improves how you view the world and interact with others.

Less Accident Prone

While this is similar to being more alert, having fewer accidents can also be attributed to having more control over your fine motor skills. When you sleep well, your body works better, increasing your balance, motor skills, and sense of touch.

Better Digestion

A good diet is important, but WebMD points out that sleeping well has a large impact on your health, as well. A restful night’s sleep aids digestion, decreases fluid retention, and can even contribute to weight loss.

Fewer Aches and Pains

Sleeping well can have a tremendous effect on reducing headaches, back, and muscle pains. And if your mattress is more than 7 years old, simply upgrading to a new sleep surface can help even more, since mattresses wear out over time.
