Getting enough sleep each night plays a large role in your health, as your brain does a lot of restorative work while you sleep. Whether you're staying at a hotel, staying at a friend's house, or in your own cozy bed, it's important to follow a normal nighttime routine and prioritize a good night's sleep. Here is how doing so can affect your health. 

3  Reasons to Make Sure You Get Enough Sleep

1. Improve Concentration and Productivity

When you're sleep deprived, you'll have trouble concentrating and being productive. Your body needs time to repair itself; otherwise, you won't physically have the energy the next day to tackle any tasks. You may have trouble absorbing what people are saying or doing, and you'll likely see a decrease in productivity. 

2. Reduce Stress

Each day comes with different issues that cause stress, and resting allows your body and mind to decompress and recharge. When you sleep, your cortisol levels are lower—this is a hormone that helps you stay alert during a stressful situation. However, you don't want excess cortisol when you're getting ready for bed. A lack of sleep means your cortisol levels will remain high, and you may have trouble relaxing and making decisions. 

3. Improve Memory

When you sleep, your brain is processing all the stimuli from the day and creating memories. When you're well rested, this will not only help with recalling memories, but it'll also allow your brain the capacity to process and learn new information. If you're too tired, your mind will feel foggy and have trouble making these connections.
