How much sleep should we have
OLDER ADULT (over 65 years old) = 7 – 8 HOURS SLEEP ADULT (26-64years old) = 7 – 9 HOURS SLEEP YOUNG ADULT (18-25 years old) = 7 – 9 HOURS SLEEP TEENAGER (14-17 years old) = 8 – 10 HOURS SLEEP SCHOOLAGE (6-7 years old) = 9 – 11 HOURS SLEEP PRE-SCHOOL (3-5 years old) = 10 – 13 HOURS SLEEP TODDLER (1-2 years old) = 11 – 14 HOURS SLEEP Getting enough quality sleep at the right times can help protect your health; mental health, physical health, quality of life, and safety. Sleep helps your brain work properly. While you're sleeping, your brain is preparing for the next day. It's forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information. “The amount of sleep needed to function the next day varies from individual to individual, and is determined genetically and hereditarily" “There’s a strong relationship between sleep and health, that’s particularly true of heart conditions such as high blood pressure or heart attacks in the past”

Sleepwalking Sleepwalking effects 20% of children because they will sleepwalk at least once in their life. Sleepwalking usually happens within the first few hours of sleeping when your in a deep sleep. Most children that sleepwalk outgrow it by the time they start puberty. Why? There is no definite reason however there are triggers that can cause sleepwalking or make it worse: Deprivation of sleep Stress/Anxiety Being poorly Consuming to much alcohol Drugs

What happens when you sleepwalk:
Some people do simple things such as just sitting up however in extreme cases a person can even drive their car whilst in sleep. Most sleepwalking episodes can last less than 10 minutes. Usually they see straight though anyone they see or don’t recognise them. A sleepwalking person may cause harm to you if you make them jump.

Dreaming Why do we dream?
One theory is that we dream to sort through information we have collected and stored during the day. Your brain does this to decide what is important and needs to be remembered and what isn’t as important. It may also be thought that we have dreams to form memories; within dreams we can possibly arrange long-term and short-term memories. Another theory is that dreams reflect our emotions, because during the day our brains make so many different connections. Because everything slows down at night, we aren’t focussed on anything, so something that may have affected us during the day could be weighing on our minds, causing us to dream about it.

Dreaming is stories or images that our mind creates during our sleep.
What is dreaming? Dreaming is stories or images that our mind creates during our sleep. What do certain dreams mean? Being lost or trapped – It can mean you’re trapped in real life or unable to make the right choice, or a reaction to conflict in our sleep. Failing a test – It may mean you are unprepared or are feeling tested some way in your life. Ill or dying – This can mean you are emotionally hurt or are afraid of this happening. It can also mean you are afraid of losing a certain person, or want them to go away.
