Counting Sheep





November is associated with many things; Turkey, Thanksgiving, Football, and first snow falls.  I am sure if Family Feud had a survey, “Things associated with November,” sleep would not be mentioned as a part of contestant’s answers.

However, sleep is an integral part of November. We gain an hour of sleep on November 6th when we as a nation (Save Arizona and Hawaii) return to standard time. This in and of itself a miracle.  As an artist I am always, looking for extra time to catch a few zzzz’s after I spent several nights burning both ends of the candle painting. 

Sleep’s association with November does not stop there.  November is National Sleep Comfort Month.  Currently, the National Sleep Foundation has found the over 1/3 of people lose sleep worrying about money.

While such worries will not go away quickly, there are several things you can do to help yourself get a great night’s sleep.  I recommend taking the Dr. Oz Sleep Quiz and going from there!

Enjoy getting some Zzzz’s.
