SPPIDER’S DREAM

THE PINNACLE OF PURITY

Many of us never achieve true sleep. The kind of sleep that occurs at intervals during the night and is characterized by rapid eye movements, more dreaming and bodily movement, and faster pulse and breathing. Imagine for one second that you could achieve this deep sleep nearly every time. SPPIDER’S DREAM, made from Organically grown Colorado Hemp, brings you the magical combination of CBD+Melatonin combined. Living in a world that never sleeps we are often granted only a few hours of sleep each night. Why not be able to maximize the hours that you do have to feel more rested and be able to seize the day with focus upon awakening.

DREAM ON

Dreams are the stories the brain tells during sleep—collections of clips, images, feelings, and memories that involuntarily occur during the REM (rapid eye movement) stage of slumber. Humans typically have multiple dreams per night that grow longer as sleep draws to a close.

It’s hypothesized that everyone dreams, but a small subsection of the population reports that they never remember experiencing dreams.

Dreams typically involve elements from waking lives—known people or familiar locations—but often take on a fantastical feel. Dreams are frequently interesting, and can allow people to act out certain scenarios that would never be possible in real life.

Health Benefits of Dreaming

It doesn’t matter whether your dreams are meaningful or not – you can still benefit from them. Dreams are significant for staying healthy. Let’s see why and how.

Besides dreaming, REM sleep is also a phase when we process information and learnings from that day and begin to store them into long-term memory. We spend only around one-quarter of our total sleep time in REM. REM sleep is more concentrated in the latter half of the night. People who get less than seven hours of sleep per night don’t get enough REM sleep. Poor REM sleep will affect your cognitive abilities and performance, emotional stability and ability to maintain focus.

Emotional Benefits of Dreaming

REM sleep and dreaming is also beneficial for our emotional health. One study conducted in the 1960s shows that people who lack REM sleep or experience disturbed REM sleep have increased the risk of insomnia and anxiety. According to the research, REM aids the mind to address emotional issues while you catch those precious ZZZs. In 2016, another study confirmed the results of the previously mentioned research. The results of their study suggest that people who dream less experience higher rates of anxiety, depression, tension, lack of focus and even weight gain. Less dreaming also makes us more emotionally reactive.

Some researchers believe that dreaming helps our brain to solve problems, form new creative connections, and process emotions and experiences from the previous day. When you think about it, sleep really is a perfect time for our brain to process all the information we encountered during the day without any disruption, and determine which will be stored in long-term memory and what to get rid of.

Dreams and Creativity

Many artists and inventors attribute their best creative works to dreams. For example, the inventor of the sewing machine, Elias Howe, figured out how to make the needle work in his dreams, while Mary Shelley got the idea for her famous novel Frankenstein. We briefly mentioned that REM sleep and dreaming helps our brain to solve problems, especially if they are abstract. In dreams, our mind tosses random images and ideas in a way we probably wouldn’t think of during the day and when awake. Dreaming may help us to come up with a creative solution for our problem. The entire process is known as dream incubation. A Harvard researcher confirmed that dream incubation is a real thing. She encouraged subjects of the study to focus on a challenging problem as they were falling asleep. Half of them had a dream that was relevant to their issue, and one third claimed the dream helped them to come up with a solution when they woke up.

Generally speaking, our creativity and problem-solving skills improve when we get more REM sleep, which further confirms the benefits of dreaming for our mental and emotional wellbeing.

IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP

Why people need rest and what happens to the mind and body during sleep remain enduring mysteries. But humans have intuitively grasped a connection between sufficient sleep and good health and emotional functioning. A wave of findings over the past two decades has established just how crucial quality sleep is. We now know, for example, that the effects on the body of accumulating a large sleep debt—the difference between how much sleep we need and how much we get—mimic some hallmarks of aging and can increase the severity of conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. And new research has found that in people experiencing sleep deprivation pain hurts more: Our pain threshold falls about 15 percent after just one night of insufficient rest. As such awareness has grown, though, so has anxiety among those who fail to get enough sleep, a group that includes at least one in three adults in the United States, according to the National Sleep Foundation's 2018 Sleep in America Poll. And yet, only 10 percent report prioritizing sleep over other goals like exercise and nutrition. That needs to change. Fortunately, we have the ability to recover from many of the effects of poor sleep. It starts with both an honest reckoning of how we may sabotage our evenings and a commitment to adopt strategies proven in the nation's leading sleep labs. Sleep experts say we should get at least seven hours of slumber each night. But as many as one in three Americans routinely sleeps for less than six hours—a trend that can have serious health ramifications.

LACK OF TRUE SLEEP HEALTH HAZARDS

A single night of poor sleep can leave you feeling cranky and unmotivated. You may be too tired to work efficiently, to exercise, or to eat healthfully. There's even some evidence that insufficient sleep makes your more prone to the common cold if you're exposed to the cold virus. This is due to your immune system becoming weaker.

In rare cases, insufficient sleep can even more dangerous. A sleep shortfall can lead to daytime drowsiness and "microsleeps." Microsleeps are brief bouts of sleep that occur during the day that usually last just a few seconds. If you've ever briefly nodded off while sitting through a lecture, you've experienced a microsleep. They usually last just a few seconds but can go on for 10 or 15 seconds—and pose a grave danger if they happen while you're driving.

During a microsleep, your brain does not respond to noise or other sensory inputs, and you don't react to things happening around you. Because people are poor judges of when microsleeps will occur (and are equally poor at preventing them), they're a major factor in many motor vehicle accidents. One in 24 American drivers admitted to falling asleep while driving at least once in the previous month, according to a government report. The National Department of Transportation estimates that each year, drowsy driving is responsible for 1,550 fatalities and 40,000 nonfatal injuries in the United States.

So how do you combat insufficient sleep? SPPIDER’S DREAM melatonin soft gels are a great place to start. Accurate dosage makes it easy to gauge potency and anticipate desired effects. A great way to get initial non-interrupted REM sleep and combat interval sleeping that can prevent microsleep throughout the day. Obtaining sufficient sleep helps your brain in proper function. This is critical for without proper sleep the brain is unable to regenerate. While you are sleeping, your brain is preparing for the next day. It’s forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information. Studies demonstrate that a good night’s sleep can get you started to a fully charged day along with improved learning.
