~ sleep explanation

Today, I was writing and finishing off an explanation about sleeping. What was that? You want to know what I wrote for my explanation? Well, please help yourself to the number of paragraphs down on the bottom.


I wonder why having 8 hours of sleep is important? Sleep is the relaxation for our body, mind and soul. Even babies get 10-14 hours of sleep. Sleeping is when your body grows and gains more power. When you sleep, you’re not thinking about anything but, the organs and cells in your body are still working. They are working so that you can be stronger for the next day. Or in other words, they are regenerating. In my explanation, I will be writing about what sleep feels like, how growth is a part of it and also about regenerating.

When night comes, we are always like “YAY! SLEEP TIME!”. When we sleep, we don’t even know what we’re doing. You feel dead on the outside but on the inside, everything else is working. Your kidneys, your brain, your heart's still beating, pumping blood all over your body. Sleep is more important than you think. Do you ever get that feeling where you didn’t get enough sleep? You feel all groggy, moody and at the same time, you’re not at your best and you’re not yourself. Well, that’s because you didn’t get any relaxation. Your brain is like .... well, I’d say drunk. It’s not functioning properly because, well, you didn’t get enough sleep! Sleeping on your bed, it actually feels like you’re on vacation. Right?

Growth. What is growth? Is growth a disease? Is it something to fill you stomach with? No. Growth is the process of increasing your size and sleep helps you with that. Do you ever feel like you’re not tall enough to get something of the shelf? Well then, sleep is there to help you. Not only do you grow but, you get stronger every single day!

The regenerating part is the most important part. Your body has to repair because if it doesn’t, then you won’t be able to work faster the next day. Your internal organs are doing more work for you than you think. Younger children need at least 10-11 hours of sleep. Older children, such as 12 and over, need only 8 hours of sleep. The reason why younger children need more sleep than older children is because, young children use up more of their energy than they’re supposed to. Younger children need more regenerating so that they can have enough energy everyday.

So in conclusion, sleep is very important in life. It actually does feel like a Hawaii vacation when you’re sleeping. To become taller and more stronger, you need to sleep for 8hrs every night, let yourself grow and let your body regenerate, so you can wake up feeling fresher as ever.
