We spend around 33 per cent of our lives sleeping, so it´s no surprise that getting quality rest is essential to our daily bodily and brain functions. Rest helps our brain to function, helps us with making important decisions, helps with memory retention and judgement, can improve productivity and even reduce the risk of heart disease.
With this in mind, the Euro Weekly News has put together this essential guide on where to buy luxury beds in Marbella, Costa del Sol, so that you can get the rest your body and mind deserve!
Given the vast information available about how important sleep and rest are, it´s no surprise that our sleeping equipment is very important. It must provide support, particularly for any ailments, but also be comfortable and not compromise on style. If you have slept well, you wake up feeling and looking better, with more energy and better brain function.
Spain is one of the countries in the world with the longest life expectancy and, according to data from the INE (National Statistics Institute), life expectancy in the elderly has increased over the last few decades. The INE’s projection is that in 2035 life expectancy will reach 90 years for women, and 85 years for men. We must ask ourselves: do we give our rest the importance it deserves? We should bear in mind that physical and mental rest is essential for us to really feel well and live longer.

The benefits of a quality night´s sleep are much more important than many people realise. In this technological age, many of us sit on our phones or watch television until late at night, disrupting our sleep patterns and leaving us feeling tired. Not only this, many of us place more importance on our working lives than on relaxing, de-stressing and making sure we get a night of proper sleep each night, disrupting our productivity during the day and, essentially, having the opposite effect by reducing our productivity, memory retention and concentration.
According to health studies, sleep and rest have a huge effect on our day-to-day lives, health and mood. But what are the main benefits of quality rest and sleep?
Sleep is important for various aspects of brain function, with cognition, concentration, productivity, and performance all negatively affected by sleep deprivation. Not getting enough sleep can have a negative effect on our decision-making processes, our mood, our concentration and our memory retention, essentially making it more difficult to carry out tasks at work and in daily life.
Sleep is also hugely important for developing brains, getting enough sleep can improve academic performance in children, adolescents, and young adults and has been shown to improve problem-solving skills and enhance memory performance in both children and adults.
One study found that people who slept fewer than 5 hours per night had a 61 per cent higher risk of developing high blood pressure than those who slept 7 hours and has been linked to a 13 per cent increase in heart disease. Another analysis found that compared with 7 hours of sleep, each 1-hour decrease in sleep was associated with a 6 per cent increased risk of all-cause mortality and heart disease.
Reduce the risk of depression
Mental health concerns, such as depression, are strongly linked to poor sleep quality and sleeping disorders. A study of 2,672 participants found that those with anxiety and depression were more likely to report poorer sleep scores than those without anxiety and depression and, in other studies, people with sleeping disorders like insomnia or obstructive sleep apnea also report higher rates of depression than those without.
Supports a healthy immune system
Lack of sleep has been shown to impair immune function and data even suggests that proper sleep may improve your body’s antibody responses to influenza vaccines. In one study, participants who slept less than 5 hours per night were 4.5 times more likely to develop a cold compared to those who slept more than 7 hours.
This is especially important for young and developing brains, however, sleep loss also reduces an adult’s ability to regulate emotions and interact socially. When we are deprived of sleep, we have a harder time controlling emotional outbursts and our behaviours in front of others. Tiredness may also affect our ability to respond to humour and show empathy. Those who are chronically sleep-deprived are more likely to withdraw from social events and experience loneliness.
Quality sleep may help you maintain or lose weight
Numerous studies have associated short sleep — defined as sleeping fewer than 7 hours per night — with a greater risk of weight gain and a higher body mass index (BMI). The effect of sleep on weight gain is believed to be affected by various factors, including hormones and motivation.
Sleep deprivation increases levels of ghrelin and decreases levels of leptin. Ghrelin is a hormone that makes us feel hungry while leptin makes us feel full. This may cause us to feel hungrier and eat more than necessary. This is supported by various studies that have shown that sleep-deprived individuals have a bigger appetite and tend to eat more calories.
What’s more, to compensate for lack of energy, sleep deprivation may make you crave foods that are higher in sugar and fat, due to their higher calorie content and feeling tired may also leave you feeling unmotivated to do any physical exercise.
Not getting enough sleep can be dangerous for yourself and others around you. When we’re tired, our ability to focus on tasks, reflexes, and reaction times decrease. In fact, being severely sleep-deprived is comparable to having consumed excess alcohol.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported that 1 in 25 people have fallen asleep at the wheel while driving and that those who slept less than 6 hours a day were most likely to fall asleep while driving. The CDC also reported that staying awake for more than 18 hours is comparable to having a blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.05 per cent. After 24 hours, this increases to 1.00 per cent, significantly affecting the brain, decisions and reflexes.
In addition to increased risks associated with driving, lack of sleep may also increase the risk of workplace injury and mistakes.
All in all, getting proper sleep and rest is important for everyone’s safety.
