    Naptime By Mccarthy Summary

    In “Naptime” by Matt McCarthy, he discusses with us the importance of sleep and how sleep affects our everyday lives. McCarthy starts by introducing us to Major League Baseball player Mike Napoli. Napoli has been struggling with Sleep Apnea since his early twenties. Napoli informs us on how he would wake up fifty to one hundred times a night while trying to sleep because of his difficulty with breathing. This began to have an affect on Napoli, making him exhausted because he was not able to get a full night of rest. Napoli was able to repair this breathing problem through a surgery called Maxillomandibular Advancement. This surgery took up to seven hours and was able to help get Napoli a full night of sleep. During this surgery, Napoli’s doctor,…

    Night During The Day Book Report

    “I became A-7713. After that I had no other name” (Wiesel). Imagine living in a place where you were called a number instead of your name. In Night, by Elie Wiesel, he writes that this is an everyday occurrence in his memoir about living in concentration camps. This novel tells readers exactly how it was living in a concentration camp at every hour of the day. Wiesel explains his journey from days before he was taken, all the way to the day the war ended and he was able to get out of the concentration camp. Originally, Elie wrote an 800 page story in Yiddish, but one of his kin edited it making it into the story it is today. Overall, I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the Holocaust or curious about what it was like.…

    Night Book Essay Example

    What was my reaction to Elie Wiesel's book Night? The only way I can express my reaction is disbelief. I could not believe how much pain was inflicted on the Jews. I could not believe how the world stood by as this extermination happened. I especially could not believe how Elie Wiesel survived to tell this tragic story. It told of a side to the holocaust that I never even knew existed. All the detailed descriptions of the beatings and circumstances the Jews went through was unbelievable. Elies story seems too inhumane to be real.…

    Trouble Sleeping Research Paper

    If your mind is racing and you are having difficulty falling asleep, a few minutes of simple but effective breathing exercises can help calm your nervous system on a chemical level and lead to greater success in hitting the sack. The awareness and control of breath has been a central component of yoga, martial arts and Taoism for thousands of years. There are dozens of different methods and exercises you can explore through a good teacher or book. The practice of breath control in yoga is called pranayama. I'll detail a simple pranayama exercise here that is particularly effective for falling asleep called alternate nostril breathing (that's "nadi shodana" for the Sanskrit posse out there).…

    Sleep Reflection Paper

    My survey had eight questions that pertained to sleep. The results I gathered gave me answers to the average night’s sleep on a week day, the importance of sleep to people, if people feel they are getting enough sleep, and the factors that prevent sleep. When I first created the survey, I expected the answers to reflect that most people sleep a healthy amount of time (despite busy schedules). What I found out through my survey of thirty people was the majority of people were in fact getting enough sleep. Eighteen people were getting seven to eight hours of sleep on a week day which is a healthy amount. Around ten people were averaging about six hours of sleep, which is not considered a healthy amount, and only two people surveyed said they averaged four and a half to five hours of sleep (very unhealthy). Another interesting fact I found was the importance of sleep to people compared to other tasks such as work or school. I figured that everyone would rate it a five, especially the people who got less sleep because they lack it. But shockingly most people rated it a three compared to other tasks. Still, there was also many who rated it four and five but I was shocked that the majority was not four or five. The funniest statistic that I found was that people were perfectly even on if they felt they were getting enough sleep. I also asked if people took naps and most people said yes or sometimes which means at least some people are compensating for their lack of a good night of sleep.…

    Night Memoir Paper

    Night Memoir Paper

    I choose the memoir Night by Elie Wiesel. It is a book about his experience, and also his family’s experiences throughout the holocaust. This book follows Elie and some of his family and friends from shortly before the holocaust all the way to his first moments being a free man. It describes his memories, his hopes, and his dreams. At certain points he almost gave up but he continued, survived, and got his horrifying message out to the world so people can look back on one of the worst parts of human history. The memoir genre feels like the author is just talking to you normally and telling you a story about a certain memory in his life. He really wants you to connect with the people he talks about and especially his family. This book is easily understandable if you have any idea of what the holocaust was. The way he writes this memoir, it is easy for you to get into the book and really start to see what he was seeing at the time. He has a couple main themes like his relationship with his father and darkness. However unlike a normal book, I feel he didn’t focus on the themes as much as he did as just getting the story out naturally. Books that usually are the memoir genre are about a big event in someone else’s life like a million little pieces, or about an event that affected everyone’s life like Night and the holocaust. I personally like memoirs over biography’s because they are more concise and have a narrower target audience. When I go to a library and pick up a memoir, I can usually tell if I’m going to like it or not because it tells you exactly what the author is going to talk about. If I read a biography, I could like the part of it that was interesting but not liked the parts I didn’t want to read about. An example is if I would want to read about the holocaust. I would rather read a memoir about the holocaust specifically than a biography that talk about the person’s life more before and after the event. I was fairly familiar with this genre before reading…
