- Many of us burn the candle at both ends, as we stay up late into the night to study, work or have fun. But going without adequate sleep carries short- and long-term health consequences. In this seminar, Harvard Medical School sleep experts illuminate the importance of getting a good night’s rest and demystify how much sleep is needed and why it’s so vital to keep our bodies at their best during every hour of the day.

I noticed every time my sleep is disturbed, my hypertension goes crazy, in spite of my meds, and my temper gets a lot worse. When I get enough sleep, my mood is a lot better and blood pressure is normal.
Fascinating, which drugs do you enjoy?

I get that way more from sexual frustration, which >drastically< affects my sleep. DON'T GET MARRIED, it screws up perfectly great relationships and ends in divorce 50% of the time. Lucky enough to get a divorce and not lose half your stuff? Don't let her boomerang under any circumstances. The renewed "attention" will NOT last long...
@@Johnconno None........do you enjoy taking meds that make you feel dizzy, or susceptible to the heat or sunlight? I don't, but a heart attack will be the result if I don't, and I've seen people getting taken down by one. It's an incredibly painful way to die.
Watching this at 4am, after being asleep since 4pm the day before, but still feel i can use another 12 hours of snooze time lol
😂😁
2 years on doing night duty knocked me. Took me two years to get back my normal sleep patterns. Now sleep 9 wonderful hours a night. Bliss
I can't even imagine even 4 straight hours. I've worked night shift and when I was younger it was great, but my heart goes out to all those that must do it.
Yeah, used to be able to do a solid 9 before taking a night job for 3 years. Even a decade on from jacking that in I feel fortunate if I can do a solid 4. Who needs it anyhoo, you’ll get enough of that when you be pushing up daisies.😭
I fell asleep to this lecture about how important sleep is at 1:00am last night. What irony and coincidence
It had the intended effect! 😂
That’s why Daylight Saving Time must end as people’s sleep patterns are interrupted twice a year because of a law passed by the politicians.
Each state determines daylight savings time. It’s not a national law. There are two states that do not participate. Arizona and I forget the other one. I think it might be Indiana. All you need to do is start a petition drive in your state. Get enough signatures and you can get a proposition vote at the next general election.
@@nedhill1242 Hawaii
@@jackhammer1021 so then there are three states. Actually I think a Y doesn’t really count because they’re in their own time zone several hours away. This only matters in the continental United States. When you’re as far away as Hawaii it doesn’t affect business in the continental United States because you know you’ve got a big time difference. But when you conduct business and you’re dealing with different time zones it makes a huge difference. In the lower 48 a.k.a. the continental United States I think it’s just Arizona and Indiana.
No one cares about Hawaii and Alaska. They don’t factor into much daily business activity for the average person. Nor the average business.
Also rates of heart attack and car crashes raise significantly during these bi yearly periods
Politicans are Dullards.
For some people the really deep stages of sleep come early in the morning. Hence the really good deep sleep up until noon. I like that he said getting too much sleep is a myth.
When I was a kid, I didn't like sleeping at all and just liked to stay up all day playing. But all of that has changed since I was about 14 15 years old. Since then, I have realized that sleep is very important, if I don't get enough sleep, I will not be able to stay awake to do anything, and I will always be tired. Now I love sleeping but because of work, I rarely get a good night's sleep
Have you considered Benzedrine?
wth dude
me i like to sleep but is a problem in my situation now 😔

I just had this conversation with my therapist today. As the second speaker said, I am fat, stupid, sick and unhappy. Literally. I was thinking about suicide last night, like many other nights. And my therapist quoted Jeff the Killer when he ended our session, he said, "Go to sleep." It's 2:40 am... and I am feeling sicker and lonelier than ever. So I just organized my time and I will do my best to go to sleep at 11 to wake up at 6. I just hope it's not too late.
I need more sleep 💤 😴
If you feel like taking your life, you are not alone in this crazy time. But it is never too late to care for your health and feel better. There is a wonderful article on JW.org that may encourage you. Type “suicide” into the search once there. Also helpful are the music videos on that website. I hope you feel better, please dont quit trying...
You need sunlight on your skin and fatty fish added to your diet. You may have to move to a better climate. I know I'll be moving to a warmer climate. Once I'm in the sun I don't need my antidepressants. Wow. Ain't that some 💩.

Grab a Bible
The tips are great. Also, try having a routine the last 30 minutes before going to sleep such as putting the phone down, turning off the computer and getting some water. Your routine can vary, but doing this every day will let your mind and body know it's time to fall asleep. It also helps to listen to some soothing music *HINT* *HINT* *WINK* WINK*.
Great tneory. But..practice is killing us
Anyone else watching this when they should be sleeping? 🙄

OMG YES
You know it

3am....can't sleep
I was scared to sleep most of my life due to problems around me...and then much more problems due to other things caused insomnia..how terrible damage now am nearly healed and so glad and want to help others
Next time anyone feels sleepy behind the wheel, if you can't pull over to sleep in your car, try singing along with something on the radio. Has kept me awake every time.
If you're tired, eyes heavy, don't risk it. Pull over somewhere safe. Take a couple hours nap. It's the right thing to do.

Good for insomniacs. I work nights and that comes with a slew of associative issues the least of which is sleep deprivation. HBP, bad diet, weight gain, slap apnea you name it. I actually passed out during a portion of this lecture. I haven’t slept in over 24 hours may be closer to 30 prior to starting this video.
So calm I struggle to stay awake
Wondering late at night, coming across this talk.. honest to god.. the irony of how it lets me sleep in 15 minutes.. This is my go-to video before I want to sleep.
Loved the lady saying to start school later. YESSSS!!!
I absolutely KNOW i would have done better in school if I'd had adequate sleep, but I had to work to help my family survive. I worked the swing shift all the way thru high school, getting home about midnight or 1:00 a.m.
If I could have just slept in in the morning, it would have helped SO much.
I might even have managed to graduate 🎓 😅
Getting up in the morning feels like being a pebble in a shoe.
Can't believe I'm watching this at 3:18AM , been binge-watching inspirational/educational videos all day...and night
Sleep makes you a safer driver. A study in the United States revealed that drivers aged 16 to 24 were “nearly twice as likely to be drowsy at the time of their crash” when compared with drivers aged 40 to 59.

One of my dreams when I was in Uganda was to study at great universities like Harvard. Thanks for sharing such crucial info here. I can't agree more that sleep is very important to me. My body reacts if I don't get enough sleep.
In my seep I was in Uganda swimming across the lake Victoria to Kenya, Tanzania and back to Uganda. Ha-ha
Daylight savings MUST END
Excellent speakers and fascinating info about the power of napping! I nap after lunch every day for about 30-45 mins and derive huge benefit from it. I often do my best academic work after a siesta...! Also, a problem in the morning seems to seem a lot less after a nap in the early afternoon.
Can't agree more than you... Me too...a nap after meals in a day times...
I sleeeep way too much. Now a study was done saying that I’m statistically destined to live a shorter life now. 🤦♀️
I guess balance is everything.
It’s just shorter because you probably slept through most of it.
Thank you so much All you giving ME information All about sleepi g habit
Before my sleep study, woke up 60+ times per hour (AHI 61.0), with a cpap, I may wake up 3 times per hour, huge difference in sleep, energy, not to mention weightloss efforts.
Even when I sleep well for a week straight and go just one night without it, I'm totally exhausted and depressed the entire next day.
Very nice and broad explanation about sleep. Yes a person who gets sound sleep can perform his best in the morning and during the day and I have experienced that if you don't get enough sleep at night, in the morning you feel you can't do some of the things that you usually do like driving.one day to make up for the lost sleep I slept for one hour in the morning and took tonics and after some time I felt I could drive with confidence.
I literally have two exams today and I got 6:30 sleep listening to this despite taking melatonin.
I always recommend 8 hours a day. Thanks for the video!
Simply too much

BRILLIANT! Thank you so much, Harvard Professors. 🙂 We appreciate your passion for your work!
On a certain level, we have sleep in our brain, the neurochemicals that show up in flow: so dopamine, norepinephrine, anandamide, endorphins, and serotonin. If you were to try to cocktail the street drug version of that, right, you're trying to blend like heroin and speed and coke and acid and weed- and point is, you can't do it. It turns out the brain can cocktail all of 'em at once, which is why people will prefer flow to almost any experience on Earth. It's our favorite experience. It's the most addictive experience on Earth. Why? 'Cause it cocktails five or six of the largest pleasure drugs the brain can produce. We're all capable of so much more than we know. That is a commonality across the board. And one of the big reasons is we're all hardwired for flow, and flow is a massive amplification of what's possible for ourselves.
2021: Economies of Scales:
“Siestas” ruled Europe lunch-hour, Banks/shops all closed until re-open or not to 5-7pm. Vacations for one whole month/July-to-August.
Business(9-2pm)reopen@4-7. In USA, 12Hrs. Between shifts.
People could afford to leave job & walk home @midday to eat with their family and take a NAP...(Siesta); No cars; bus. Kids return to late sessions of classes, too.

Excellent lecture. Thank you.
Okay, I’m playing this entire lecture. I mean to be more sound about sleep and this really helps me achieve that goal. Thanks Harvard.
In order to sleep, it has to be fun to sleep. So, if we are being creative in making things fun by using the theory of suggestion, a talk with the divine, massage various parts of the bodies while breathing deeply, drinking water to lower the temperature, etc.., then sleeping would be easy. In short, the body has to be cool, and we have to breathe deeply to bring more oxygen the cells, then we would just sleep. If it still does not work, then try to massage every parts of the body while breathing deeply, so the muscles could be relaxed. We have to tell ourselves that we would deal with things the next day, and if it is beyond our control, then let God do the worry while we sleep.)
Good advice 👍 and Amen
Urgh this us such great advice 👌🔥
That first gentleman was very knowledgeable about this. So was the second gentleman. Okay all of them. Thank you Harvard.
Professor Judy Owen was very knowledgeable as well imo. She used very interesting data and also translated them into action points for parents and schools.
@@mikayt7577 Yes she was excellent..I supported the start school later movement and totally agree with her too

@@jimmorrison4163 it is an incredible feeling, ESPECIALLY when your 17, 18. The major PROBLEM is the feeling of being TERRIFIED of being late. Simply because you couldn't be on time. You could end up "tall before the man". It's like court, but it's actually done by the Captain.

Okay let me just say that the last answer at the end by the doctor in the middle was brilliant.
32 years of Insomnia Sufferer here. I am a Insomniac. Not by choice here. I absolutely hate it. I always pray for sleep I have never not slept because of thinking on things . Or worrying about things. No. Absolutely Honest to God. I don't do that. I just don't. Sleep. Or rarely get sleep. Sleep is literally everything. It's vital. Our lives depend on it.
I once went for 3 days with no sleep. Z o l p i d e m has been a godsend.
Check hormones you are totally depleted
Suggest looking at You Tube with massage the Vagus nerve around the ear and neck area. This should have a relaxing and blood pressure lowering effect.
I would suggest making changes in diet. Some foods can actually induce sleep. And I know for me personally I have to make sure I'm getting enough exercise mentally as well as physically everyday or it's impossible for me to fall asleep. My biggest problem is just self discipline!! If I could just get myself to lay down, I always go straight to sleep. Just never wanna go to bed.
Thank you for the You Tube Link. I have fasted throughout my Adult Life . And when I was a Former Minister's Wife for 15 years I fasted alot during those years for myself & for Others when I " Fasted & Prayed for certain things for them or for myself. " Fasting is a Good Tool to have & use & do . I believe in Fasting.
Excellent. Thank you. "It - the body - is like a horse which carries the personality and spirit, and as such should be well cared for so it can do its work! You should certainly safeguard your nerves, and force yourself to take time, and not only for prayer and meditation, but for real rest and relaxation...." ~ Lights of Guidance, Baha'i Faith
Yes that is excellent advice

perfect to listen to while i fall asleep thanks!
I really love topics about sleep it has always fascinated me yet I always sleep late at 12:30 or 1
Well as long as you can wake up after 8:30 or 9, it should be fine. ;-)
medical school : Sleep is very important
The moment you graduate : You need to do night shifts and work 24 h without sleep
5mg during the day for relaxation and it completely removes my anxiety. Then 10 to 20mg before bed with a ashwagandha. Now that is the best sleep I’ve ever had. Wow
MG of what, please
Everyone knows why sleep “matters”. Insomniacs hate being reminded .
What a great class!❤️
Being a lifelong napper I have perked up to listen to any intelligent info about that. I'm encouraged to hear that naps are helpful with cognitive&memory issues. Don't remember the specialty but no doubt naps do not supply opportunity for some critical functions that cannot be caught up on with more sleep any time soon. Interesting topic. Enjoyed muchly.
Very helpful information. Thank you for posting this video.
The great resignation is an opportunity to balance workplace environments. It’s never pointed to and wasn’t covered in this lecture, but workplaces can be toxic and contribute to sleep issues.
Lean philosophy imo has been a major contributor to workplace stress.
Covid has given people time to think. And they may get it right by negotiation for better employer employee relations.
Having enough sleep is having a longer years of stay on this earth.
People be so worried that they are "wasting time" sleeping that they are literally shorting their lifespans

Suggestion that a key part of the need for sleep is the body's need to make serotonin, which it does in a symbiotic relationship with gut bacteria in the large intestine.
We sleep to first produce serotonin, then to draw it into the body through the extraction of water in the large intestine.
Though it can be synthesized, there seems to be a major difference in the health benefits from the micro made serotonin, and the artificially made serotonin.
Here's some notes on both how important serotonin is and how widespread it is in all living things.
Besides mammals, serotonin is found in all bilateral animals including worms and insects,[19] as well as in fungi and in plants.[20] Serotonin's presence in insect venoms and plant spines serves to cause pain, which is a side-effect of serotonin injection.[21][22] Serotonin is produced by pathogenic amoebae, and its effect in the human gut is diarrhea.[23] Its widespread presence in many seeds and fruits may serve to stimulate the digestive tract into expelling the seeds.[24]
Gut bacteria manufacture about 95 percent of the body's supply of serotonin, which influences both mood and GI activity.
Best medicine for insomnia.
Put on ANY Kevin Costner movie. Sit comfortably or lie in bed. They are so slow and lengthy and boring you will be snoozing in no time at all.
My favourite is “ Message in a Bottle”
It takes you to REM sleep in a flash. You won’t even be aware of all the long Tyrsome facial close ups of Kevin. Or even the lengthy periods without dialogue.
@Waterworld runs a close second.
Thanks for your excellent lectures.
A wonderful lecture! Quality sleep is so vital for good health.
I agree, especially as one gets older more and more is required. I remember in my 20's I was fine on 4 to 5 hours of sleep, but now in my 40's I needs 7 to 8 hours or more to feel fine.
I saw this title in my sidebar as I just finished coming off the cuff of pulling an all nighter for no good reason whatsoever

One night I was in a McDonald's fairly late to get some schoolwork done and a whole bunch of families were hanging out after church. The kids were tired, but the parents wouldn't leave. My kids had been in bed for an hour by this point.
I felt really sorry for those kids bc I had no idea when they'd get to sleep after eating McDonald's late at night.

I am 65 and have been living in Spain for just over a year now. I am curious as to why the speakers have not touched on the subject of siestas. Have they conducted any research on the pros and cons of effectively having twice as many days in a year. Albeit half days. Most animals nap at random times during the day so surely this must be hugely beneficial to humans as well.

It does in the UK
Maybe even 8:42? 😳
Or 10am school start would stop heavy traffic, gridlocks, and. Calm nerves! It’s crazy having everyone’s start time the same when scheduled for differing times could save lots of hassle and enough sleep for those that need more especially teens.
