Do you play with your phone before bedtime? According to a US study, looking at screens at night can cause us to sleep not well.
In the evening, our brains make melatonin. Melatonin helps us feel sleepy and relaxed. It's an important part of our sleep cycle. Our electronic screens stop that cycle from working normally.
Why? Phones, computers and TVs make blue light. Blue light stops our bodies from making melatonin. Even just a little bit of blue light can have an effect. Eight minutes of blue light can keep your brain "awake" for another hour, according to the study. Even when you are sleeping, you may have lots of dreams. Your brain won't have a good rest.
It's even worse if you play an exciting game before bed. Games make our hearts beat faster, so we have a harder time falling asleep. Then, when we are sleeping, we don't get enough "deep sleep".
Will you play with your phone before sleep now?
I have a new baby this year, so I buy a "new" car which is much bigger for my family. It is actually a used car. I spend around $6,000 on it. My old car is still in good condition. A dealership would take it for $1,500.
I have a co-worker. He works so hard for his big family but life is still not easy for him. He is looking for used cars for a long time. So I ask him how much he wants to pay for a car. He says he wants to spend $300 to $500. So I tell him I will sell him my old one for $300.
My mom, who I work with, asks if I have any luck selling my car. I tells her I plan to sell it to my co-worker for $300.
She starts crying. She tells me how happy and proud is she that her kid can help someone out so much. She asks me if I can give it to him for free and then she will pay me $1,500. I am surprised at what she says and of course I don't take her money either. I want to help more people like my kind mom does.
