hey guys it's Lucy Fink and for the next
five days I'll be sleeping for ten hours
per night sleeps great pretty much doing
it right now
something that we always talk about in
the office is how little sleep we get
and how we always wish we had more did
you know that 40% of Americans get less
than the recommended amount of sleep per
night some of my co-workers only sleep
four hours per night a society is set up
right now we're constantly running from
place to place and it's really hard to
get a full night's sleep in we work very
hard and we do not sleep enough for the
email we work so this week I'm going to
flip the script on Society starting
right now Monday night and instead of
getting too little sleep I'm going to
kick back and get ten hours per night
and see how my body responds sleep
messes up my everything because I sleep
like covered in anti-aging creams like
retainers like every part of me is like
sealed and like working towards
perfection I feel so incredibly
well-rested right now I just came out of
a crazy weekend where I slept like four
hours a night so getting 10 hours last
night was a miracle dream I tracked my
sleep using an app called sleep cycle I
got 10 hours and 2 minutes to be exact
did you know that the average person
sleeps for about one third of their life
if you live to 75 you will have been
asleep for 25 years I'm really excited
to sleep 10 hours again tonight it's
night time and guess what I'm doing ding
ding ding ding ding ding ding going to
bed normally I would sacrifice a full
night's sleep for my social life but I
had to reject it
I literally drew that home from work
good next and in life
I haven't been able to fall asleep and I
tried every trick in the book I've been
on a sleep mask to block the light I
made myself a glass of warm milk I even
set up a noise machine in the corner of
my room my body just doesn't want sleep
I have to keep setting my alarm back so
that I get 10 hours of sleep being on my
computer is probably not helping so I'm
gonna go back and try again I love sleep
Scout one to ten like 8.2 say ten is
like yeah I enjoy being dead I was late
to work today that's just not something
that I can do on the Reg last night it
was like a quasi nightmare I was tossing
and turning and I don't even blame
myself because my body is just so not
used to getting that many hours of sleep
that I can't even imagine what's going
on in my brain right now my brain is
probably thinking what are you doing
I had my friend's birthday dinner
tonight that I just couldn't miss I
never said that I needed to get 10
consecutive hours of sleep I've decided
that I'm gonna get 9 hours of sleep
tonight I'm gonna be on time tomorrow
and then I'm gonna choose one hour out
of my day tomorrow probably my lunch
hour and I'm gonna take a nap yeah why
don't humans hibernate I feel like we
should take a note from nature or
something and sleep all winter
I think the Bears are on to something
did you know that humans are in the 15%
minority of mammals who have two
distinctive periods of the day one for
sleep one for being away all the other
mammals are sleeping intermittently
throughout the day taking naps I was
gonna do it in my office but it's a
little loud here I didn't really know
where would go so I left and I went to
yellow spa they put me in this room that
was changing color I was in the most
comfortable chair completely tilted
backwards with my feet lifted upwards
that's actually the way astronauts sleep
that's the natural form your body takes
what
zero gravity
and I'm really tired in a workday I have
some tips you should really listen to
like some really good empowering music
like Enya or Drake that'll really get
your blood pumping a bit love that's
like in the music video she and she's
wearing Jacmel which is just like some
fabulous coming into this week I felt
like I don't sleep enough I'm always
tired my coworkers are always talking
about how we don't get enough sleep but
what I came to learn is that getting 10
hours of sleep every night is not
conducive to my current lifestyle
all this week I kind of felt like I was
falling behind from my co-workers you
know everyone was up and Adam at work
early getting their stuff done and I
would roll in late because I was trying
to get my 10 hours in you know Thomas
Edison carried his lack of sleep as a
badge of honor and Martha Stewart built
her entire empire on just four hours of
sleep at night and that's a good thing
ten hours of sleep is to our shy from
sleeping half the day away ain't nobody
got time for that
