Tips for a good sleep

Image
"Sleep to remember & remember to sleep!" šŸ˜“ Who doesn't love to sleep? But think, you went to bed after having your dinner, struggled to sleep, but sleep wasn't coming! Oh no, it's as same as a nightmare! So, how you can sleep efficiently? Before that, let's see some tips which you have to remember before sleeping. 1. The 90 Minute Rule Sleep is not uniform. Rather, over the course of the night, the total sleep is made up of several sleep cycles, which are composed of four individual stages. On a typical night, a person goes through four to six sleep cycles. Not all sleep cycles are the same length, but on average they last about 90 minutes each. Your night dream begins in the fourth stage i.e. Rapid Eye Movement or REM stage when the body is paralyzed.

How to memorize anything?

Image
  Memorizing! It's really a difficult job. You study all time, the syllabus has been completed, but when the exam comes, hey I can't memorize anything! It's the human brain. It's just like computer storage. But not actually. Because the human brain has a capacity of ~2500 TBs. Yeah, ~2.5 million GBs or ~256 Crore MBs or 2621 Billion KBs. That's a huge number. According to hopkinsmedicine.org, when we learn somethingā€”even as simple as someone's nameā€”we form connections between neurons in the brain. These synapses create new circuits between nerve cells, essentially remapping the brain. On the other hand, the brain simmers with activity. Different groups of neurons (nerve cells), responsible for different thoughts or perceptions, drift in and out of action. According to Queensland Brain Institute, memory is the reactivation of a specific group of neurons, formed from persistent changes in the strength of connections between neurons. So, how to memorize?

Musics are of different kinds, like rock, jazz, blues, disco, relaxing. Or it can be a song with a voice. The music which you like might not be favorable to me. It varies according to personality. So, if you play your favorite music near a person who doesn't like it at all, it might sound irritable or may cause a headache to that person. So, firstly, the person should like the music that the person is listening to. There you go! Even if the music is favorite to a person, listening to music might not be useful in some cases.

Novel Coronavirus: Be careful!

Image
  Novel Coronavirus Disease has become a worldwide pandemic. But, how does it affect the human body? Let's find out the answer! A virus infects your  body  by entering healthy cells. There, the invader makes copies of itself and multiplies throughout your  body . The new  coronavirus  latches its spiky surface proteins to receptors on healthy cells, especially those in your lungs. Although for most people COVID-19 causes only mild illness, it can make some people very ill. Even, the disease can be fatal. Older people and those with pre-existing medical conditions (such as high blood pressure, heart problems, or diabetes) appear to be more vulnerable.   As COVID is a communicable disease, it's spreading among hundreds of people by just one. A vaccine can protect you from this disease but coronavirus is changing its character. So, you should always beware of it even after complete vaccination.
