It happens that people who do not get enough sleep can have a very negative impact on their brain functions. Their health also suffers considerably.
Despite the great pleasure and the immense need for sleep, we cannot spend as much time in our beds as we would like. People need to go out to work or study and perform throughout the day.
If you have not slept enough and are tired during the day, you may experience physical discomfort, bad mood, or health problems due to lack of energy. Sometimes your body tries to create a new sleep cycle and you end up falling asleep at your desk or on the bus.
RESTFUL SLEEP, DEEP SLEEP
Dreaming consists of several phases of more or less equal duration. The main phase is known as rapid eye movements (REM). During the REM phase, the body enters a deep sleep and we experience a restful sleep. During this phase, certain neurotransmitters are inhibited to avoid the muscular movements that would make us run away before a nightmare. Therefore, the famous drooling occurs when you get into deep sleep.
WHEN YOU DROOL WHEN YOU SLEEP IS IT BECAUSE YOU SLEPT LIKE A BABY?
According to Dr. Jorge Abel Salinas, “The adult is completely disconnected, where their brain functions are turned off to achieve rest and repair. It stops swallowing and passes saliva, then begins to eliminate saliva and gives the famous drooling. Hence, when you sleep well, your body relaxes completely and that makes your mouth open and you end up drooling. Far from being something negative, this means that all the processes of your dream are occurring normally.
NOW, WHAT IF YOU NEVER DROOL?
This may be because your dream habits are affected throughout the night and you are not getting sufficient rest. Due to this, your neurons are not recovering at all.
DROOLING IS A GOOD SIGN
So, if you fall asleep and drool, you are achieving the quality of sleep, something that is very positive for your health.
“One should not be ashamed to drool because it is a natural fact. We just have to be sure that we are breathing correctly and that sleep apnea does not occur (interruption of breathing), “says Salinas.
Therefore, it is important to take care of the hygiene of the sleep, programming well our schedule to sleep giving the necessary time. The objective is always to make the dream a good one so that your neurons recover.
