Sleep plays a vital role in restoring physical strength, regulating hormones, protecting cardiovascular health, and maintaining mental well-being. Lack of sleep can trigger psychological issues like anxiety, depression, and irritability, which in turn worsen sleep, forming a harmful cycle that weakens immunity. Quality sleep improves memory, emotional balance, brain function, and even skin regeneration. Sleep needs vary with age—newborns require 16–20 hours, infants 9–12, children 9–10, adults 7–8, and elderly individuals around 5 hours. To achieve optimal sleep, one should stick to consistent sleep and wake times, avoid stimulants like caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco before bed, and refrain from eating too much—or too little—before sleeping. Calm, relaxing routines signal the body it's time to rest. This book offers practical advice to help overcome sleep difficulties and promote restful sleep naturally, making it a valuable guide for people of all ages seeking better health and daily productivity.
