Do You Get Enough Sleep?

Sleep is something our bodies need to do; a basic human need, it is not an option. During sleep many of the body’s major organ and regulatory systems continue to work actively. Some parts of the brain actually increase their activity dramatically and the body produces more of certain hormones. Sleepiness due to chronic lack of sleep is
a big problem in the United States.

FREE! Registration is required online at danburylibrary.org, click on “View Calendar” or call 203.797.4505, ext. option 3.
