How to use "Sleeping" in context?
When we sleep, our minds and bodies relax and rejuvenate. Our brains produce natural sleep chemicals to help us relax and overcome obstacles during dreaming. When we sleep, our heart rate and blood pressure slow, allowing our bodies to rest and restore. Our muscles and connective tissues rest and repair. And our skin rejuvenates, shedding old cells and replacing them with new ones.
Of course, not all sleep is the same. There are various stages of sleep and each one offers different benefits. For example, Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep is when our eyes move around and we dream.
