“The more we let God take us over, the more truly ourselves we become - because He made us. He invented us. He invented all the different people that you and I were intended to be. . .It is when I turn to Christ, when I give up myself to His personality, that I first begin to have a real personality of my own.”
― C.S. Lewis

“If you’ve noticed that you’re hungrier and crave unhealthy foods when you don’t get enough sleep, chalk it up to hormones. Studies show that when you sleep only four or five hours a night, the hunger hormone ghrelin spikes—so you feel really hungry the next day. Plus, when you’re sleep deprived, your body releases cortisol. When cortisol goes up, it tells your liver to release its stored glucose. But it also limits insulin. So, your blood sugar levels soar, making you crave foods, usually sugary carbs. Still other research has linked sleep deprivation to depression and anxiety, both prevalent in mid-life, as well as insulin resistance, which is a trigger for high blood pressure, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.”
