Read MoreHealth Benefits of Getting Enough Sleep- Minutes with Jay
There are many health benefits of getting enough sleep. I hinted on how sleep can help you as well as tips on increasing happiness in my last post, you can check it here.
At different levels of sleep you will get different benefits. In the first level not much really happen besides eye twitching.
In the second level, your blood pressure drops and your heart rests which helps the cardiovascular system.
Later on you get the benefits of growth hormones being released and muscles being rebuilt. That means that if you are trying to get bigger biceps, traps, chesticles (aka chest muscles)…you gotta sleep. Also, for my ladies that are trying to lose weight or get cut, this is important for you too!
While we are on the subject of weight, sleep regulates your appetite. Ever stayed up too late and wanted to eat the house down or didn’t feel hungry at your normal time skipping breakfast maybe even lunch? This is due to a hiccup in your sleeping pattern.
Just something to think about!
Read MoreIncreasing Your Happiness- 2 Easy Ways- Minutes with Jay
Increasing your happiness does not have to be hard. There are easy ways to gain more energy and just be overall happier.
One way is through real meditation. I get into the definition on this in my video. I am not talking about sitting in a room humming for hours on end or chanting weird tribal bird sounds with a group of strangers.
The second way is to get more sleep. Sleep repairs a lot of what you lose or give out during the day.

Read MoreLearning through problems
Learning through problems is a tough assignment. Many situations we encounter help to sidetrack us from purpose.
Sometimes we just don’t understand our situations or feel that somehow this is only happening to us. BUT a lack of understanding should not stop your progress or growth.
Consider that whatever you are facing is making and will make you stronger. Cliche? Yes. Truth? Oh yea. Just like weights, the heavier your problems get, the stronger you become.
That strength will allow you to eventually pick up more/do more/help lift someone else up….if you let it.
You cannot be a resource to anyone if you are not strong yourself. There is so much we can learn from what happens to us.
Stay tuned for my post tomorrow that will discuss what we can actually learn. I’m thinking I will cover 3 or more points about the purpose of problems.
