🤔 Questions that keep us awake… Is there a scientific term for talking in your sleep?
(Answer at the end of the issue.)
Actionable wisdom:
“Dealing with sleep disturbances when you’re feeling depressed can seem like a vicious circle. The more depressed you feel, the harder it is to sleep. And the more exhausted you feel, the harder it is to fight depression.”
😔 If you suffer depression, whether chronic or temporary, there’s an 80% chance that it’s impacting your sleep. You may be unable to get to sleep or stay asleep at night, or you may be sleeping too much. Verywell Mind shares the health risks this poses and offers some vital coping strategies.
This week’s cool thing:
🥘 You haven’t hit the grocery store this week, and your pantry and fridge show it. You don’t want to shell out for delivery again, so what’s for dinner? Time to call on Supercook.
Simply check-mark your available supplies, and you’ll be given a list of recipes that include only those ingredients. (Though if you’re down to a Hot Pocket, orange juice and a half-bowl of Wheaties, you may be on your own.)
Side note:
🐵 If you think a scalp massage is relaxing, check out how much this baby monkey enjoys his! Just watching the video made us feel cozy and ready for a nap. (And a pet monkey to snuggle with.)
💡Answer: You know it! The scientific terminology for talking in your sleep is somniloquy, and it’s experienced at least occasionally by 50% of children and 5% of adults. We think that “somniloquist” also adds a poetic flair to the Special Talents section of any resume.
