Just like a caterpillar transforms into a butterfly we also go through transformation phases of life from an infant to a child, into an adolescent, and then an adult. As we grow older we think we can combat sleep and go on working both physically and mentally.
We are over confident that sleep is not a primary need of the body and so we can go without it for long, but life has something else in store for us. Even if the brain tends to work harder and longer the accomplishments are far less than expected.
Only the brain knows what happened the previous night, because sleep deprivation triggers different chemical reactions that impede the normal functioning of the brain. To know more about the correlation between sleep and the brain please click here.
