Listen up Interns - Get 8 hours of Sleep!

I know what you're thinking... This is my SUMMER! I want to be out late every night and living up the club scene. But if you think your performance at work will be the same if you get back from Marquee at 4am rather than going to sleep at a decent hour, you're wrong. You NEED sleep if you want to perform well. But of course if you have an internship with a family friend and you don't give a crap about your job or if messing up making copies then go out and have fun!

A technique recommended by the Wellness Blogger Cohen Family Wellness to help you fall asleep is called "4 x 4 breathing". My patients who perform this exercise are getting longer hours of sleep, better quality of sleep, increased energy the next day, and many other health benefits. Here is a step by step guide to perform the exercise.

1) Breathe in for 4 seconds.
2) Hold breath in for 4 seconds.
3) Breathe our for 4 seconds.
4) Hold breath out for 4 seconds.
