They were saying that REM sleep unpacks the day's angst but the slow wave sleep is what makes you feel rested.

Oh I see! So we need both ... it's always the same, we need balance and moderation.

That was good! I understood that .... I think.

Balance and moderation sounds like a plan.

Great news! 4 y o DS found DH's wedding ring on the garage floor.

A miracle!

Well done ds!

Well done ds!

I have been reading on this topic too, I read that early morning wakes up are your way of protecting yourself so you don't enter Into rem sleep again.

Best thing I read was that positive experiences increase serotonin levels whereas negative introspection reduces levels. I have been doing far too much of the latter.

Hope you have had a relaxing and enjoyable weekend shs.

Hi SHS

Sorry you're feeling a bit carp. I always find this time of year to be particularly tiring, my mum always says its to do with the lack of light etc.

Hope you are managing to get some rest but also time outdoors. It's so hard starting a new job where everything is done differently, but it will seem more natural in a few weeks.

Be kind to yourself:A

Cath I think we have been reading the same stuff.

Maybe it should be this week's target?

A big STOP! sign on negative thinking.

Thanks for your kind support, guys.

Trying to make a flicker book with DS...
