The most underrated basic human need is: SLEEP. Everything goes haywire if you cannot sleep. Productivity goes out of the window without sleep. You cannot coherently communicate without sleep. You cannot lose weight without sleep! You are exhausted, low on energy, and lethargic without sleep. You crave sugar to compensate for the lack of serotonin in your brain without sleep. Processed sugar causes brain dysfunction, so the cycle begins! You cannot retain information in your long-term memory if you cannot sleep. So if you are learning, goodbye to it if you cannot sleep. You cannot grow muscles without sleep. SLEEP is essential so you can create energy. Think sleep as your garbage collector that cleans your system every night! So next time you are grumpy and craving sweets, perhaps ask yourself: did I get enough sleep last night? I am not talking just any sleep; the QUALITY of sleep matters too! How do you know if you had quality sleep? When you are in REM (rapid eye movement), the state where you are in deep sleep that allows you to dream soundly. When your brain is in DELTA frequency. So tell me, what are you like when you have not had proper sleep, and what did you do to get a good night's sleep? #asknostr #grownostr #nostr #plebchain
