Sleep...

If you want to stay healthy, there's nothing as getting good night sleeps...
Dinning frugally will help you fall asleep more easily. Your aim should always be 8-hours-a-night! That's the minimum amount required for our body to restore itself from a long day, avoid stress and protect your immune system. A restful sleep will make you look your best, bring light to your skin and remove dark spots from under your eyes. When your body does not relaxes, it will present a tendency to accumulate fat and burning them will become a hard task. A good night sleep will help maintain your weight or even burn it, because  when deprived from sleep we produce more appetite hormones...
More and more scientific studies have been proving the link between sleep disorders and mental illnesses. Disruptions during sleep increases the amount of hormones related to stress, which generates anxiety during the day and troubles to process and react to emotional stimulus. If we are in a mood or anxious, we eat more, we mistreat those around us and will be far from looking and feeling our best.
I'm kind of a Cinderella-type: I try to get back home as early as possible and go to bed before 1 a.m., because I do enjoy early day-starts. So, if I can sleep more than 8 hours, still better for me!
