Ngaba ulala ngaphezulu okanye ngaphantsi koMfundi weKholeji oqhelekileyo?

Umxholo

• Uphengululo lwe

Lala: kuhle kakhulu, kodwa ukhumbula kakhulu. Ingxelo yakutshanje evela kwiNational Sleep Foundation ifumanise ukuba isinye kwisithathu sabemi baseMelika asifumani isindululo seeyure ezisixhenxe ukuya kwezisibhozo zokuvala amehlo ngobusuku ngabunye.

Nangona kunjalo, wakhe wazibuza ukuba loo nto iguqulela njani na kubantu beekholeji (ngakumbi ukuba awuzange ushiye imikhwa yakho yokulala ekolishi ngasemva unetyala!)? Ngethamsanqa, uninzi lwabafundi abasebenza bekholeji abanomzimba wokuqina komzimba (i-emoji iqhwaba ngeenxa zonke!), Kwaye uJawbone kutsha nje ujonge amashumi amawaka eedatha zabasebenzisi kwiiyunivesithi ezingaphezu kwe-100 zase-US ukufumana ukuba umntu omtsha ulala njani isikolo. Iindaba ezimnandi? Abantwana baseKholeji balala ngaphezulu, ngokomyinge, kunabo bonke abanye abantu. (Ngaba uyazi ukuba iYunivesithi yaseOral Roberts yaba yiyunivesithi yokuqala yokufuna ukuba abafundi bayo banxibe abo balandelela impilo yomzimba?)

Kwingxelo epheleleyo ekhutshwe nguJawbone namhlanje, isigebenga sokulandelela sifumanise ukuba abafundi bafumana umndilili ongaphezulu nje kweeyure ezisixhenxe zokulala ubusuku bonke evekini, kwaye phantse iiyure ezisixhenxe ezinesiqingatha ziza ngeempelaveki. Kwaye abasetyhini balala ngaphezulu kwamadoda, belala malunga nemizuzu engama-23 eyongezelelekileyo ngobusuku beveki kunye nokulala ngaphezulu kwe-15 ngeempelaveki. (Ezinokungavakali ngathi zininzi, kodwa loo nto iyongeza.) Kwaye, amanenekazi ahamba ngobuchule alala phantse iyure ngaphambili kunabafana. (Ezi ziindaba ezimnandi ezijonga ezi Zizathu zibini zokungalali ngokwaneleyo yingxaki enkulu kubafazi.)

Yintoni enomdla, nangona kunjalo, kukuba iJawbone ikwafumanise unxibelelwano phakathi kwenqanaba lesikolo lobunzima kwizifundo kunye nexesha lokulala kamva-ngakumbi, eyona nto ibinamandla ngakumbi esikolweni, kamva ixesha lokulala eliqhelekileyo lalikhona. Ayimangalisi ngokupheleleyo, akunjalo? Abafundi kwizikolo ezibini ze-Ivy League-iYunivesithi yaseColumbia kunye neYunivesithi yasePennsylvania-badla ngokubetha ingxowa emva kwakhe wonke umntu.

I-Jawbone ikholelwa ukuba uphando lwabo lomeleza uphando luka-2009 olupapashwe Ubuntu Nokwahluka Kwabantu Ngamnye, eyafikelela kwisigqibo sokuba ubukrelekrele jikelele obuphezulu bunxulunyaniswa nezikhova zasebusuku. Nangona kunjalo, gcinani engqondweni ukuba ubukrelekrele ngokubanzi buyenza hayi ukusebenza ngokulinganayo okuphezulu okanye amabakala angcono. Ingcebiso yethu? Betha ingxowa xa unako kwaye ufumane ubuncinci iiyure ezisixhenxe zamehlo avaliweyo ngobusuku. Emva kwakho konke, ubuthongo obungcono bubonakaliswe njengento ebalulekileyo ekulahlekeni kwesisindo, kunokuphucula isimo sakho sengqondo, kwaye kuya kukunceda uphile ixesha elide. Ngoko ke, ngubani olawula ihlabathi? Amantombazana. Amantombazana aqhuba ihlabathi. Kuba balala ngakumbi.
