How Often Do You Fall Asleep At Work?
How often do you fall asleep at work and would a new mattress help?
How often do you fall asleep at work? Have you ever sat in that board meeting and been bored out of your mind? There have been several times when my husband has called me and told me that he had just fallen asleep at work. He commutes to work and sits in front of a computer all day, so I can only imagine how tired he must get at work. If you have ever fallen asleep at your desk or in your cubicle, it may be time to re-examine your sleep habits.
1. Are you getting enough sleep? Are you making sure you get the recommended 8 hours of sleep every night? If not, try going to bed earlier so you can get the sleep your body needs.
2. Do you go to bed around the same time every night? Your parents tried teaching you this important principle when you were younger. You probably had a set bed time, right? Your parents did this for a reason. Your body gets into different routines. Bedtime is one of these routines. You need to go to bed around the same time each night so your body can adjust and make the most out of it’s sleep time.
3. Do you need a new mattress? Have you been sleeping on the same mattress for 10 years? 15 years? 20 years or more? If so, it is time to get a new mattress. Not only is your mattress probably worn out, but your body has shifted sleeping patterns. As you get older, your body requires more support and comfort. Spend a few extra dollars and make sure you get the sleep you deserve.
Stop falling asleep at work and make the most out of your work day. Examine your bedtime routine and make necessary changes. It may be time to get a new mattress (especially if you are sleeping on the same mattress from college). Set the stage for the perfect nights sleep. You’ll be glad you did (your boss will appreciate it too).
