Ngaphantsi Kweeyure Ezisixhenxe Zokulala Liphindaphinda Kane Ithuba Lakho LokuFumana ingqele

Ngaphandle kwemozulu eshushu, ixesha lokubanda kunye nomkhuhlane liphezu kwethu. Kwaye kuninzi lwethu oku kuthetha ukuphakamisa umdlalo wethu wokuhlamba izandla, ukupakisha i-sanitizer kuyo yonke indawo, kunye nokujonga ecaleni nabani na ohamba kwezothutho lukawonkewonke ngokukhohlela. (Ngothando lweNyquil, khohlela kwingqiniba yakho!) (Funda indlela yokuthimla-Ngaphandle kokuba yiJerk.) Kodwa kulo nyaka izazinzulu zisinika isixhobo esitsha kwi-arsenal yethu yokulwa ingqele-kwaye ayikho kude kunegumbi lakho lokulala.

Ukuthintela umkhuhlane kunokuba lula njengokulala ngokwaneleyo, lutsho uphando olutsha olupapashwe kulindixesha Lala. Abaphandi bacele abantu abadala abasempilweni abali-164 ukuba banxibe isixhobo esincinci esigada imijikelo yokulala iveki yonke. Emva koko badubula intsholongwane ebandayo ephakamisa iimpumlo zezifundo (kumnandi!) Kwaye babavalela iintsuku ezintlanu ukuze babone ukuba ngubani ophuhlise iimpawu ezibandayo kwaye ngubani ongakhange azenze. Iziphumo zazicacile: Abantu abafumana ukulala ngaphantsi kweeyure ezintandathu ngobusuku ngabunye babenamathuba ama-4.5 okuba bagule kunabantu abafumana ubuncinci iiyure ezisixhenxe ngobusuku bonke. Kwaye oku kuyinyani ngaphandle kwamanani abantu, ixesha lonyaka, isalathiso sobunzima bomzimba, ukuguquguquka kwengqondo, kunye neendlela zempilo.

Ayothusi le nto, utshilo umbhali okhokelayo uAric Prather, Ph.D., unjingalwazi oncedisayo kwizifundo zengqondo kwiYunivesithi yaseCalifornia, eSan Francisco. Ngapha koko, uphando lwakhe lwangaphambili lwafumanisa ukuba ukulala ngokwaneleyo kunxulunyaniswa nezinye izifo. UPrather uthi oku kungenxa yokuba ukunqongophala kokulala kunciphisa amajoni akho omzimba kwaye kuphakamisa umngcipheko wokudumba, zombini ezenza kube nzima kumzimba wakho ukulwa nazo zonke iintsholongwane ezikwindawo okuyo. Kwaye uyongeza: Impilo yabasetyhini ibonakala ngathi ihlupheka ngakumbi kukungabikho kokulala kunokwamadoda. "Ukudumba kuye kwavela njengenkqubo ebalulekileyo kwibhayiloji kuphuhliso kunye nokuqhubela phambili kwezifo." Kwaye, uyongeza, ukuba impilo yabasetyhini ibonakala ngathi ihlupheka ngakumbi kukungabikho kokulala kunokwamadoda.

Ukulala okusemgangathweni kubalulekile kwizizathu ezininzi-ayizukukunceda kuphela ukunqanda isniffies kodwa uphando lwangaphambili lubonakalisile ukuba ukungazibambi ngokwaneleyo i-zzz kukhokelela kumngcipheko ophezulu wokudakumba, ukutyeba kakhulu, isifo seswekile, isifo sentliziyo, kunye nomhlaza.

"Ndingumcebisi omkhulu wokwenza ukulala kube yinxalenye ebalulekileyo yesicwangciso sakho sezempilo, kunye nokuzilolonga kunye nokutya okunempilo," utshilo, esongeza ukuba uyazithanda iingcebiso ezinikezwe yiNational Sleep Foundation, ezibandakanya ukunamathela kuseti ishedyuli, ukuzilolonga yonke imihla, kunye nokuzilolonga ngaphambi kokulala. (Kwaye uzame ezi zicwangciso zeSayensi eziBacked kwiNdlela yokulala ngcono.) Kwaye ngenxa yokuba ubungqina bezenzululwazi buqhubeka bubonisa ukuba abafazi basengozini kakhulu kwimiphumo emibi yokulala okungahambi kakuhle kunamadoda, u-Prather uthi oku sesona sizathu singakumbi okufuneka usenze. Ukulala ebusuku kubalulekile. Ke rhweba ngemaski yobuso ngemaski yamehlo kwaye ubethe umqamelo kwangoko ngokuhlwanje!
