9.Reduces pain sensitivity

降低疼痛敏感度

Extending participants' sleep time during the night or with midday naps, a 2019 study found, restored their pain sensitivity to normal levels in comparison to sleep-deprived individuals, who had a lower threshold for pain.

2019年的一项研究发现，延长参与者夜间或午休的睡眠时间使他们的疼痛敏感度恢复到正常水平，相比之下，被剥夺睡眠的人痛阈值更低。

How this happens would have to be in the realm of perception, Kryger said, which ultimately traces back to the brain. "The brain is where sleep is," he explained.

这是如何发生的则涉及感知领域，最终要追溯到大脑，克鲁格（Kryger）说。“大脑调节睡眠，”他解释到。

10.Increase your likelihood for overall success
