A few things before bed
Did you know that baby killer whales and baby dolphins can forgo sleeping for their first month of life? You wouldn't either if you were born into water and your mom was constantly swimming.
On the contrary, humans operate best with 7 hours of rest at least. Humans die if we do not sleep for at most 8 days.
The longest day time I spent awake was 22 hours, this past New Year's Eve. I never would have made it home, had it not been the cold air and loud music.
Tomorrow I'm giving a speech on the benefits of yoga. Some stretches I like to do before bed, help to open up the chest and the back. When we are stressed we tend to haunch forward and anyone who works on a desk more than likely has poor posture. So by stretching the shoulder back and stretching the arms behind you will help your body.
I will post a video of my speech by the end of the week.
