The Secret to Better Sleep (#Infographic)

My daughter is a pretty good sleeper. She made it through the night around three months, and she takes a fairly long nap every afternoon. Well...most afternoons. Today, she didn't want anything to do with her nap so we got in a little more playtime than usual. And right now, she's enjoying some milk before she hits the hay until about 7:00AM tomorrow morning.

My husband and I are pretty good sleepers, too. When we're not stressed or sick, that is. Usually we go down and we're out...although it's not until 11:00PM on a typical night, but that still gets us at least six hours of snoozing on average. More if we can put our books down or tear ourselves away from the Internet. (Or if I don't have to wake up for early classes and clients.)

We are a house full of great sleepers.

And this, of course, is a very good thing. Sleep does wonders for the body, mind and soul. It really does. But it's also one of those things that can take second fiddle to so many other things like sickness, activities and time. Such is life, right?

Here's a great infographic for you. It's all about sleep, why you need it and how to make it better. Because let's face it, even if we sleep great, the idea of sleeping better is still appealing. Find me someone who doesn't praise an awesome snoozefest and I'll never nap again in my life. Enjoy:
