Throughout the hustle and bustle of daily life, it’s quite easy to neglect getting enough sleep each night. After all, many of us have important responsibilities, exciting hobbies, or other things that eat into our daytime and nighttime schedules and ultimately cut into our rest—including even conditions such as sleep apnea! But few of us actually stop to consider the negative impact that inadequate rest can have on our bodies. While daytime fatigue and excessive sleepiness are often the first symptoms to manifest, did you know that sleep apnea can also inhibit your ability to block out unwanted thoughts? Here’s what you need to know.

Every night when your brain powers down and your body goes to sleep, there are actually quite a few different processes going on despite your idleness. Primarily, your brain must cycle through different stages of sleep, in order for you to receive all of the benefits that a night of rest has to offer. However, conditions such as sleep apnea don’t always make this easy and can prove detrimental to your well-being if left unchecked. Here’s a brief overview of the different stages of sleep and why each one is important for your body’s wellness.

At some point, you’re bound to have a rough night of rest. Occasional stress at work, kids or pets, or being on screens late into the night can leave you yawning the next day, but these infrequent days are just a normal part of life. Where can you turn if you consistently have bad sleep?
