Sleep

“May every sunrise hold more promise and every sunset hold more peace.”

“Along with the physical changes that occur as we get older, changes to our sleep patterns are a part of the normal aging process. As people age they tend to have a harder time falling asleep and more trouble staying asleep than when they were younger.  It is a common misconception that sleep needs decline with age.  In fact, research demonstrates that our sleep needs remain constant throughout adulthood.”
