The Importance of Sleep [Infographic]

WRITTEN BY  Kara McKnight- 17 May 2012

Here's why it's important to get that well-deserved sleep and "Dream On."

Ahh, sleep. We all love it. Whether you're a Morning Person and can't wait to fall into your bed at the end of the day or a Night Owl who has a hard time prying themselves out of bed in the morning, everyone loves sleep at one time or another. Most of us, however, just aren't getting enough of it.

We've all heard it before (you may have even heard it here before!): getting enough sleep is important. But, if getting enough Zzzs is something you know you need to (or would like to) work on, check out the below infographic and hopefully the promise of a healthier, more vibrant you will be just too hard to resist...

Eat Better, Sleep Better

WRITTEN BY  Kara McKnight- 20 February 2012

Healthy eating habits lead to better sleeping habits, which lead to a healthier, happier, more attractive you.

Not too long ago we investigated if you could potentially Sleep Your Way To Beauty. We discovered via The Huffington Post that people who get more sleep are more attractive compared to when they get less sleep, which resulted in my new number one goal: to get more sleep! But, hey, in today’s hectic society, we’re busy and I’ll be the first to admit that getting more sleep is easier said than done.

Which is why I was happy to come across Fitness magazine's article on how choosing healthier eating habits may help you get a more restful night’s sleep . Eat better, sleep better, look and feel better! Sounds good to me.

Eating well and still having trouble getting to sleep? Fitness magazine recommends Vitamins and Minerals for Great Sleep , including B Vitamins , Calcium, and Zinc.

Sleeping Your Way to Beauty?

WRITTEN BY  Kara McKnight- 30 January 2012

Could more Zzz's be making you more attractive?

Have you ever woken up after a great night’s sleep, looked in the mirror and thought, I’m looking pretty good today!? Well, it turns out that your eyes may not have been playing tricks on you…

We all know that getting more sleep makes you feel better (especially first thing in the morning!) but getting that extra hour or two of sleep may in fact also be making you look better.

But can it really be that simple? That easy? Looking better by sleeping? According to many health care professionals, yes! Yes, it can! How, you ask? Read Sleep: The Most Natural Beauty Treatment Of Them All? for the full scoop.

So instead of waking up earlier to do that extensive beauty regimen each morning, put that time towards more sleep!
