in the arms of morpheus by camilla eustance

S

ommeil, sueño, forty winks, slumber, shut-eye – sleep!

The Arms of Morpheus, God of Dreams, save us from the duress of the day. In Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, sleep is positioned alongside food and water and it is no wonder; a lack of sleep can have serious short and long-term health effects. If sleep is so important, then what happens when we don’t get enough?

Sleep deprivation definitely happens, and it happens more often than we admit. Based on experience and observation of my fellows, here are the primary reasons I have gathered for how and why: 1. Exams. Essays. Lab reports. Group projects (in which you are seemingly the sole provider of labour) 2. The endless anxieties of being a university student 3. Late-night raucousness as a coping mechanism 4. Most depressingly, your flatmate’s love-life.

We don’t want these things – apart from occasional raucousness.

They are, however, normal and mostly unavoidable. The result is disruption to the circadian clock. This lovely-phrased thing controls all of our body’s natural rhythms and functions. If it is disrupted, we do not sleep properly. We suffer through the next day, week or month, with slow, confused clouds lurking inside our fuzzed-up brains and bodies.

That fuzz is the frontal lobe and thalamus being slow. These two guys are the key players in alertness, attentiveness and decisionmaking. Advanced imaging technology, as explained by Harvard University, shows us that a lack of sleep inordinately decreases energy in these parts. So, despite the lecturer’s call for focus on an obtuse snippet of Heidegger, your attention will be shunted downwards to the newsfeed held in your hand. Despite the angry smoke leaking out from the oven, it may take you nine minutes longer to notice that your crumble is now a miserable Pyrex-dish full of black rubble. Despite the glorious variety of sushi rolls in front of you, you may test the patience of the kind attendant through debilitating indecision.

Lack of sleep does not just affect you psychologically, however.

The effects are also physical. Have you ever noticed that when you’re tired, you are colder or hungrier than usual? That’s because the circadian clock also regulates blood pressure, digestive enzymes, body temperature and a medley of hormones. A University of Chicago study tracked a group of students who voluntarily slept for four hours a night, six consecutive nights, and found that they developed higher levels of cortisol (the stress hormone) and increased blood pressure. The students were also found to produce just half of the expected number of antibodies when given a flu vaccine. These results alone suggest that chronic sleep deprivation increases the risk of diabetes, heart disease, obesity and stroke.

So do you sleep enough? And how much is enough? Professor

42 / Farrago 2015 / edition five

Horne from Loughborough University in the U.K. proposes that 7 to 7.5 hours sleep per night is the key for living a healthy, productive adult life. This conflicts with the “Personally, I need at least ten hours a night” and the “I slept from 4-7am last night, 3-7am the night before” – among various responses heard around campus. The test for whether you are sleeping enough, according to Horne, is “whether or not you are sleepy during the day.”

If so, good news: it is possible to repay your sleep debt. However, you do not need to repay the exact amount of lost sleep. This is a popular misconception. An article from sleepdex.org suggests that even following severe sleep deprivation, only two or three nights of solid sleep is necessary before routine settles in. Whatever you do, try to sleep before midnight – as hard as this may be. The hours of the most important mental and physical repair during the night are between 12 and 6am.

Dr Epstein, from the Harvard-affiliated Sleep Health Centres, suggests that sleep should not be regarded as a luxury, but as an essential part of health – as important as a balanced diet or exercise.

Epstein advises that a short-term debt may be repaid by sleeping three or four hours extra on the weekend and in the subsequent week. A long-term debt may demand a short holiday with a modest itinerary, which will entail turning off the alarm and sleeping until you awaken naturally each morning. To maintain your amended sleep cycle, sleeping and waking at the same time each evening and morning should be a priority.

But what if you find it difficult to fall asleep in the first place? Here are some strategies that have worked for me and others I know: • Before sleeping, write a couple of pages of blurted thoughts, stream-of-consciousness style. This helps because it tires out your brain and I find I nearly always end up with my eyes closed, my pen writing psycho-automatic nonsense dangerously close to the edge of the page and onto my blanket.

• Try boxed breathing: Inhale for four seconds, exhale for four, hold for eight. Repeat for 60 sets. You should be asleep long before.

• While lying in bed, imagine, in detail, animals in bizarre colours and textures – an ultramarine giraffe made from marble, for example. This works because it is cognitively demanding.

• Enjoy a tablespoon of honey before bed. It boosts the blood sugar your brain needs for physical restoration and wakes you up feeling refreshed.

• Avoid screens an hour before sleeping. The light disrupts the melatonin that helps you fall asleep. Try installing the free application Flux, which adapts your computer’s light display to the time of day (or night).

Best of luck with your journey to the land of nod tonight. Let’s hope Morpheus is waiting with open arms!
