In addition to traveling during the
National Day holiday, there is no “restriction” on working hours. It is also a true portrayal of many people to make up for their sleep and wake up naturally. However, it is necessary to return to normal after the holidays. Experts warn that sleep during the holidays should be as consistent as possible. If it is really difficult to do so, when the holidays are coming to an end, sleep time should also be adjusted to normal work rhythm as far as possible in order to adapt to the upcoming post-holiday life. Switching
from busy work mode to holiday relaxation mode is a rare enjoyment for many people. This relaxation also helps to improve people’s sleep. Su Changjun, academic secretary of the Sleep Group of the Neurology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, pointed out that there is no work pressure during the holidays. Compared with the relatively tense state at ordinary times, the relaxed state during the holidays will also be reflected in people’s sleep. Usually, people’s sleep quality will be better than usual.
That being the case, it should be possible to “willfully” sleep during the holidays, right? Su Changjun said, “If conditions permit, sleep during the holidays should also try to maintain regularity.” In theory, even on holidays, it is still recommended that people keep their sleep time and sleep duration as consistent as usual, and at the same time, they should be regular, which can also make people adapt to work as soon as possible after the festival.
It should be noted that sleep, like fingerprints, can not be generalized. Genes, lifestyle, health and age determine what kind of sleep a person needs to be in the best condition the next day. Some people may wake up energetic after a short sleep time, which is only an individual phenomenon, less than 1% of the population, the vast majority of adults need 7-8 hours of sleep.
In general, quality sleep includes the following key factors: adequate sleep time; faster time to fall asleep; fewer times to wake up during sleep, generally no more than 2 times, no more than 5 minutes each time. After waking up the next day, you can feel refreshed, energetic, efficient and in good mood during the day.
Many people think that holidays are not like going to work, sleeping late the next day can “make up” for the first day’s sleep, so sleeping late or even staying up late during holidays is not a big problem. But this is not scientific. Su Changjun said that strictly speaking, sleep can not be “made up” back. Sleeping late and staying up late are a kind of “deprivation” of normal sleep. These behaviors themselves have affected the body’s biological clock and damaged the body. If such “irregularity” lasts for a long time, it may cause elevated blood pressure and affect the level of stress hormones in the brain. These injuries can not be improved by making up for sleep. People can only supplement part of their sleep time by making up sleep, but the harm of sleeping late and staying up late to the human body can not be “made up”.
