Another weekend has arrived, time flies by, the clock runs at its fastest speed when I was younger and did not have so many responsibilities, weekends were to sleep all day after a week of work, I only got up to eat anything and continue sleeping, when the children arrived, sleep became a luxury between housework and children if I slept a few hours I had to get up early for the day to yield me.

It was many years of getting up early, doctors recommend sleeping at least eight hours but so many years with the same routine your internal clock wakes you up, obviously sleep is a way to replenish energy and mood improves, after my children grew up I said finally I can sleep late on weekends I no longer have to get up early, but the blessed but is that although I try I look like an alarm clock at 5 am and I'm waking up on a weekend is crazy.

Many times I stay in bed to see if I go back to sleep until I fall asleep becomes a problem that changes my mood because not getting enough sleep affects my mood. I have even thought about buying sleeping pills, but I am trying other alternatives so that this does not become an addiction and the remedy is worse than the disease, yesterday I told my daughter that I urgently need to sleep longer, 4 hours is not enough.

There are times when I feel desperate to sleep but when Friday comes and I'm going to stay at home I take a bath with warm water I prepare some infusions of sweet dreams tea with chamomile I have two weekends applying this technique at least I sleep a little more for example today I woke up at 7 am that for me is an advance is better than 5 am, I would like to sleep more but the truth is that today I woke up more rested.

One of the reasons why you can stop sleeping is the use of technology, the excessive use of electronic equipment keep the brain active I am trying not to use them or leave them near the bed of course the different situations of life also take away your sleep, although my problem to sleep is not new I am correcting it for my physical and emotional health is very unpleasant to spend hours tossing and turning in bed while others sleep peacefully I do not want to resign myself to spend the days irritated by not sleeping.
