36
lasts 5-10 minutes) 2 or 3 times so usually end up getting out of bed closer to
5.
27.2. Do you think it is enough? Why?
I think the minimum amount of sleep to be healthy is 6 hours a night. So yes, I
do sleep an acceptable amount of hours. But, to be honest, I think it’s unnatural
to get up before the sunrise; I think we need natural light. Although I sleep about
6 hours, I still feel sleepy throughout the day. I think getting up at 6 would feel
a lot more refreshing.
27.3. What do you do to improve sleeping quality?
With all the stressors that I face throughout the day, it’s important to take some
deep breaths at the end of the day. I downloaded
a meditation app called
HeadSpace a few months ago and have started doing some meditation before
sleep. Furthermore, I try to avoid looking at my phone at least 30 minutes before
bed because it stimulates my mind too much. I truly believe that meditation
leads to a much more restful sleep.
27.4. Do you like sleeping during the day? Why?
When I take a nap, I tend to keep pressing the snooze button and
end up (do
something without wanting or trying to) sleeping for at least an hour and a
half! Although it feels amazing to escape the heat with an afternoon nap in an
air
conditioned room, I try to avoid it because
I end up feeling more tired
afterwards. I think a 30-45 minute nap would be ideal.
27.5. Do you think elderly people need more or less sleep than young?
Why?
I imagine that an aging body
exerts (use) much more energy for simple tasks
that seem easy to a young, able body. Furthermore, they may be more sensitive
to extreme weather. With this said, I would say that the elderly require more
rest. I believe if they have more rest, they can keep healthier and perhaps live
a longer life.
