What a dichotomy with sleep we get
We sleep to remember and we sleep to forget…
*
In the throes of deep sleep are memories consolidated
That poor sleep is linked to dementia has been validated
In multiple studies, therefore in order to maintain
Brain function and memory, it is imperative to refrain
From sleeping late and using devices at night
We fight sleep now, later memory loss we would fight..
*
Sleep helps you remember events, but also lets you
Forget the emotional distress that you have gone through
You file away a memory but subtract the emotion
From the event, therefore the notion
Of sleeping over something that evokes emotion strong
Is a sound one, you cannot go wrong
By waiting to take a decision until after a good night’s sleep
You gain clarity, facts without emotions in your mind you keep
*
Sleep is powerful medicine, not given its due
It is the foundation of good health, we’re realizing it’s true
Passion...unbridled
