The quality of sleep is as important as the amount of time we dedicate to this activity. When this moment is interrupted or limited, the body does not have the opportunity to rest enough to carry out certain stages that are transcendental for the organism.

Getting to sleep properly helps to have clearer thoughts and, consequently, to take a positive attitude towards life; it allows our reflexes to be active, in the face of risk situations; and makes the information intact in memory. In other words, we have more energy to be productive and efficient.

The price paid for not sleeping peacefully is reflected in everyday life. Believe it or not, subtracting one hour of rest may involve a lack of concentration the next day and decrease your agility.

Several studies ensure that lack of sleep increases the chances of making wrong decisions, which influences work or school performance. It also increases the chances of drivers being involved in traffic accidents.

On the other hand, experts say that not getting enough sleep affects mood, causing us to be irritable in the face of any scenario or comment from those around us. Undoubtedly, this will cause a negative impact on our interpersonal or couple relationships.
