Sleep is very important to having a positive mind and healthy body. Health professionals recommend adults to sleep 7 to 9 hours, although some people may need as few as 6 hours or as many as 10 hours of sleep each day. If you're a teenager (ages 14-17), you need about 8-10 hours of sleep each day. Children need more hours of rest, and much more is needed for babies. I aim to have at least 7 hours of sleep every night, however, I have to admit that I'm not consistent on this. I've succeeded 85 times and today, July 10, 2019 is the 170th day of the year.

You're putting out fires fueled by personality clashes in a non-profit organization you're leading that's suppose to promote inner peace. Phone calls and emails get thrown at you from your business partners and vendors, telling you everything that's going wrong. Payments aren't coming in from your clients while your attorney defending you for your driving under the influence case is needing his payment. Oh, and for that driving under influence case, the court threw the book at you for not being a good role model as a politician so you're facing five days...
We know what you want. It's what the great majority of us want, to be happy! Happiness is not a destination but a way of life. You must work on your positive practices to attain and maintain it. With practices such as compassion, empathy, mindfulness, gratitude, meditation, self-reflection, journaling, goal-setting, reading and writing for personal growth, sleep, exercise, nutrition, being around positive people, sensory therapy, psychological therapy, and such, you can be happy a vast majority of the time!
