Crossing Road

今天在網路上讀到一篇關於3/21的文章
世界真是無奇不有，睡眠也可以當成一個紀念日啦～

為喚起全民對睡眠重要性的認識，2001年，國際精神衛生和神經科學基金會主辦的全球睡眠和健康計劃發起了一項全球性的活動，將每年初春的第一天—3月21日定為「世界睡眠日」。

此項活動的重點在於引起人們對睡眠重要性和睡眠質量的關注。 2003年中國睡眠研究會把「世界睡眠日」 正式引入中國。

原文如下：
The World Sleep Day is an annual event organized by the World Sleep Day Committee of the World Association of Sleep Medicine (WASM). It is aimed to celebrate the benefits of good and healthy sleep and to draw society attention to the burden of sleep problems and their medicine, education and social aspects; to promote sleep disorders prevention and management. Through the World Sleep Day the WASM tries to raise awareness of sleep disorders and their better understanding and preventability, and to reduce the burden of sleep problems on society that constitute a global epidemic and threaten health and quality of life for as much as 45% of the world's population.

Bla Bla…看到想睡的話，直接摘錄的重點如下：
有兩派說法表示可以幫助現代人的睡眠跟壓力問題──

1. 回籠覺：unprotected sleep
字面上理解是無保護的睡眠或風險睡眠，指的是turning off your alarm clock and immediately going back to sleep; risking not waking up for a job, class, or other daily task. 冒著工作遲到的風險關掉鬧鐘睡回籠覺，這是不是很多人每天生活的真實寫照？

現學現賣造句：
I'm lucky that I can still rush to work on time after 30 min of unprotected sleep. 我真走運，睡了30分鐘的回籠覺還能及時趕到公司。(不過現實生活從沒發生這種事…)

2. 自然醒：wake up naturally without alarm clock
有研究表明早上被鬧鐘吵醒容易造成神經衰弱現象(舉手)
可是試問現在有哪個人早上不是被鬧鐘吵醒的？當然也有鬧鐘吵不醒的睡美人。(畢竟英俊的王子只有一個嘛！)跟自己的鬧鐘分手是需要很大勇氣的！

The second school says you should listen to your body's needs and go to bed when you're tired and get up when you naturally wake up.
另外一種觀點認為你應該按照你身體的需求，累了之後就睡覺，一覺睡到自然醒。

這篇文章應該轉發給所有老闆、主管、教授…
See, 睡到自然醒是重要的，回籠覺是被鼓勵的，by 世界組織！
