Do you often stay up late too? At 1 a.m., you’re still replying to messages, scrolling through videos, or binge-watching shows, telling yourself, “Just five more minutes.” But those five minutes turn into half an hour, and half an hour stretches into 3 a.m. The next day, you’re battling dark circles, surviving on coffee, with a foggy head and explosive emotions. Have you ever wondered if we’re throwing away our most natural source of recovery with our own hands? We’ve noticed that some of our friends on the isle are often still awake late at night… So, how are you sleeping? Poor sleep doesn’t just affect your mental state. *Why We Sleep*, the bestselling book by Matthew Walker—winner of the 2020 Carl Sagan Prize for Science Popularization—was a *New York Times* No. 1 bestseller, with over a million copies sold worldwide and translations into 34 languages! Why do we need sleep? What happens when we don’t get enough? How can we sleep better? All the answers lie within this book.
The book explains that sleep deprivation isn’t just about feeling “tired.” It impacts your focus, learning ability, and emotional regulation, while also increasing the risk of depression, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s. Sound scary? It’s not meant to frighten you—it’s science. Bill Gates started taking sleep seriously because of this book. What about you? Have you ever considered that a good night’s sleep might be the best self-improvement investment you could make?
Sleep isn’t a waste of time—it’s life’s repair system. We often think sleep “wastes time,” but *Why We Sleep* shows us it’s the key to staying young, sharp, and creative. Your ability to learn, emotional stability, and even weight loss are all tied to sleep quality. Have you ever woken up from a good sleep bursting with ideas? Or felt completely off after a restless night? That’s not a coincidence—it’s biology. Join us to rediscover sleep. At this offline event, we’ll dive into the book’s scientific insights, share our own sleep stories, and offer a “sleep quality self-check quiz” to help you understand your sleep patterns. More importantly, we hope this event transforms sleep from something you passively accept into an intentional lifestyle choice. When was the last time you woke up naturally in the morning feeling refreshed? Do you remember the last time you had a dream? Are you willing to give yourself a chance to reclaim a truly soul-nourishing night of sleep?
This Sunday afternoon, join us at the Isle Book Club. Let’s have a conversation about “awakening” and commit to sleeping well. “Sleep is nature’s best defense against death.” Come on—stop staying up late. You deserve a good night’s rest.
