Being real: About sleep.
/Hi and Welcome to the first post from the Being Real series where I share my personal life lessons.
Being real: About sleep
The recurring theme this week is sleep.
From Sunday evening, I've had nightmares for 5 consecutive nights.
My sleep was so horrible, lucky I had adrenaline and excitement coursing through my veins to get me through the days.
By Thursday evening, I was almost delirious.
I just wanted to have a good night's sleep.
No nightmares, happy dreams whatsoever.
I needed rest.
Friday morning I woke up smiling.
You can only guess why.
I woke up with zero nightmares or dreams, as much as I can remember.
But I woke up twice. (So maybe I did dream but they were not impactful enough to disturb my sleep)
But I didn't check the time both times so I still felt like I had restful sleep.
I got the great tip from one of Mathew's 50 sleep secrets you should totally check out here:
I guarantee you’ll learn something new.

I got through the day but by Friday evening, I felt like I was in a dream.
You know the state where you feel you're out of your body?
That's how I felt Friday night. I need sleep.
I slept early and woke up early on Saturday.
Honestly, good sleep truly can do soo much.
I went for a jog, got some sunshine in.
It was the best day of my life!
(well I felt like that)
Life's truly perfect when you have good sleep.
Hung out too late with my friends Saturday evening and I ruined my sleep cycle ):
Slept in and a nap after lunch didn't make me feel better.
I felt horrible the entire Sunday.
So, first step to taking care of yourself:
Sleep early, sleep well and have a good sleep cycle.
