Snooze Labs

👋🎓 Hey students!!

Have you ever wondered whether external factors may be affecting your academic performance? 🤔💭

Well, our team conducted a survey on the sleeping habits of 30 students here in the Ateneo 🏫📊 and discovered that the majority of us do not get enough sleep. 😴📉

Just remember, this can significantly impact one's academic performance, so before pulling that all-nighter 🌃☕, remember that cramming might not just tank the GPA of one subject… but all of them together. 😱📚

🥳🎉 "What's up, partygoers!

Even in the most superb celebrations, one must sleep to prepare their mind and body, a necessary mise en place." 😴🛏️

Even God rested on the seventh day! 🌅✨ According to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, "about one in five adults fail to get enough sleep," 😲💤 and Blackwelder from the CDC further reiterates how there is an "association between inadequate sleep and frequent mental distress," 🧠😥 and that sleep deprivation is linked with "poor biological measures," and chronic diseases that are life changing. ⚠️🩺

If you snooze, you lose (your sleep cycle) 😴

Sleeping, as our parents said when we were little, is good for you. Despite being busy with school and life, we must make enough time for a restful sleep at night.

Several studies indicate negative effects over short- and long- term sleep deprivation and instead of reading those lengthy texts, we summarized it for you in the poster ⬇️ below ⬇️

What are you waiting for? Read it now and be aware of the consequences of not-sleeping 👀

Hopefully this gives everyone a wake-up call to sleep well every night 🤭🌃

😴💤 Sleep is not a luxury, but a necessity! 🛏️🌟

Sleep deprivation is a condition that occurs if you don't get enough sleep, or it could be if you sleep at the wrong time of the day. ⏰🌙

With so much to do and so little time, many people find themselves sacrificing their sleep to get ahead. 🏃‍♂️📚

As we delve deeper into this topic, we made a poster explaining its causes, effects, and ways on how to identify if someone is sleep deprived. 📊🔍

It's time to prioritize sleep and give your body and mind the rest they deserve! 💆‍♀️🌈

Remember, a well-rested you is a healthier and happier you. 😊💪
