Sleep is indeed a fascinating topic to read about. In our modern world, it is so common for people to lead such packed lives. In fact, vast numbers of people pack their lives too full. Something must give, and often times the extra hours that are so badly needed to get through the day are stolen from sleep.

Before there were nine-to-five jobs and even before there were schools to attend, and of course prior to the invention of electricity, people slept entirely based on the rhythms of their bodies. And, because there was no such thing as "processed foods' people ate much better as well.

Since the early 1800's humans have come light years in terms of progress. Scientists have been discovered and been able to accomplish and achieve so much in terms of our health and overall well-being. However, in part because of that progress we seem to have gone backward where sleep is concerned.
