full moon

<div>Tonight a full moon will grace the sky. And, according to new <a href=http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960982213007549 target=_blank>research</a>, a werewolf spotting is really the least of your worries. By measuring the brain's activity using <a href=http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/eeg/MY00296 target=_blank>electroencephalograms</a> (EEGs), Swiss researchers found that a full moon decreases the beneficial effects of a deep sleep, or REM cycle, by 30 percent. Study subjects took 5 minutes longer to fall asleep, and overall sleep duration was reduced by 20 minutes. The relationship between the lunar cycle and our sleep cycle is still unclear, but may we suggest turning off the TV and slipping on a sleep mask? You'll be less nightmarish in the morning.</div>To help you get a better night's sleep:<a href=http://q.equinox.com/articles/2013/04/valerian-root target=_blank>A Natural Sleep Aid</a><a href=http://q.equinox.com/articles/2013/07/jeffrey-alan-marks target=_blank>Get a Chic Night's Sleep</a>And for tomorrow:<a href=http://q.equinox.com/articles/2012/12/coffee-tasting target=_blank>The Coffee Club</a><a href=http://q.equinox.com/articles/2012/12/art-of-napping target=_blank>The Art of Napping</a>
