What I’m READING: Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Energy of Sleep by Matthew Walker. This guide is detailed and scientific all through and it turned out to be an interesting learn on the significance of sleep.
Takeaway quote from this guide: “I used to be as soon as fond of claiming, ‘Sleep is the third pillar of excellent well being, alongside food regimen and train.’ I’ve modified my tune. Sleep is greater than a pillar; it’s the basis on which the opposite two well being bastions sit. Take away the bedrock of sleep, or weaken it just a bit, and cautious consuming or bodily train grow to be lower than efficient, as we will see.”

It’s stunning. (Full disclosure, I don’t love this entire album, however that first track? It’s a favourite on my present morning playlist.)
“The Lord is close to to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 ESV
Wishing you a stunning week filled with little issues that make you smile!
