Keep the body's defenses strong + capable. During rest, you create protective antibodies + cytokines, which combat illness. You also build up your energy so you can fight bugs and stay healthy.

Sleep quality, quantity, and satisfaction impact how energized you feel for the day. Increased sleep satisfaction = stronger feelings of energy + positive emotions.

When you are well rested, you are better able to recognize emotions in other people. Getting good sleep sustains your emotional empathy, so get some rest and emote!
