Your brain was never designed to multitask.

Most of us think of aging as something that happens entirely inside the body—our cells wear out, our systems slow down, and disease gradually takes hold.

There’s the sympathetic nervous system that puts the body in high alert mode—raises body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, blood sugar, respiration, the works—and primes us for action. And then the parasympathetic system cools everything down, letting the body reset and repair. Together they make up our “autonom

I like to think of sleep as the essential “backstage” human function.
