When I was a kid, my dad used to say, “Early to bed and early to rise, makes you healthy, wealthy, and wise.” Now, I don’t know if it’s entirely true, but it does appear as though it is partially correct, at least according to a study I came across recently.
What part is correct? Well, it turns out that the earlier you go to sleep every night, the less likely you are to worry—which can be a real boost to your overall health, especially during the busy holiday season.
It’s not uncommon for people who fall asleep later to spend time worrying. I know there have been nights when I’ve been laying in bed, stressing about work, finances, or other personal matters. There have also been times when I find myself going to bed later because I’ve been up late working or trying to relax in front of the television, delaying my bedtime as I hold on to see what will happen at the end of the show.
