Okay, I'll go to sleep. Just stop staring at me like that.
If you’re having trouble sleeping and you go to the National Sleep Foundation’s Web site you will see a picture of this woman. She is a sleep expert. No one can sleep like this woman. At a moment’s notice, boom, she can just nod off. It’s amazing.
There is also a fascinating page on Restless Legs Syndrome. At the top of this page it asks “What is Restless Legs Syndrome?” Turns out, it involves your legs and restlessness.
The foundation has its own magazine that covers “hot sleep news” (that is a real quote).
The National Sleep Foundation conducted a poll. Most people, it found, sleep between seven and eight hours a night. A small sliver (6-percent) of the population, however, sleeps nine hours or more on average. The technical term for these people is “lazy.”
Another section gives you a long list of things to try if you’re having trouble sleeping. Then it asks “Are You Trying Too Hard?”
