Umxholo
Kukho iindawo ezimbalwa zokulala kwakho ozibambe zingcwele: ukuhlamba ubuso, ukuxukuxa amazinyo, ukutshintsha ube zi-PJs ezintle. Kwaye emva koko kukho ukubhabha, ukulibaleka ngokulula (okanye ukungahoyi ngokucacileyo) umkhwa owaziyo kufanele yenza yonke imihla. Kodwa masithi utyibilika ngobusuku obunye, okanye ezimbini, okanye -okphi-iveki yonke. Kubi kangakanani ukulibala ukwenza ifloss?
"Ndingathi ayisiyonto inkulu leyo," utshilo uMark Burhenne, u-D.D.S., ugqirha wamazinyo wase-California kunye nombhali I-8-Hour Sleep Paradox . "Kukudla ngokwenene kunye nendlela yokuphila kuqala, emva koko kuyabhabha kunye nokuxubha."
Ukuvile oko kulungile: Ukuhamba kancinci kuba yinto engabalulekanga kangako ukuba uhlala kude neelekese, ipasta, kunye nokunye ukutya okugqityiweyo okunokubangela ukubola kwamazinyo. "Ukuba ungumntu onempilo kakhulu kwaye utya ukutya kwe-Paleo kunye ne-carbohydrates evundiweyo, akukho nkunkuma, akukho swekile, mhlawumbi akudingeki ukuba udibanise yonke imihla," kusho uBurhenne.

Kungenxa yoko le nto kusafuneka uyenze xa ukwazi-kathathu okanye kane ngeveki, u-Burhenne ucebisa. Ngaphandle koko, kwiinyanga nje ezimbalwa, amavumba angena ngaphakathi, iintsini zakho zinokukhukhumala, kwaye ziqale ukopha.
Ukukhumbula kunye nokufuna ukwenza ifloss yonke imihla kunokuba ngumzabalazo. UBurhenne uyayifumana. Ucebisa ukufihla ifloss macala onke kwindlu yakho-ngendawo yakho yokulala, kufutshane nebhedi, kwisipaji sakho-ke ucinga ngayo rhoqo. "Awunakubhabha yonke imihla, kodwa [ekugqibeleni] uya kuphoswa yiloo mvakalelo yokuba kuvakala njani ukufloss," utshilo. "Yindlela entle yokwenza ukuba abantu babanjwe."
