Sleep Health

Sleep Health refers to the overall quality and patterns of sleep that contribute to physical, mental, and emotional well-being. It encompasses various aspects such as the duration, depth, and timing of sleep, as well as individuals’ ability to fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up feeling rested. Good sleep health is characterized by adequate sleep duration for the individual’s age and lifestyle, the maintenance of a regular sleep schedule, and the absence of sleep disorders such as insomnia or sleep apnea. Sleep health is vital for cognitive functioning, mood regulation, immune system functionality, and metabolic health. It also plays a crucial role in reducing the risk of chronic conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Promoting sleep health involves practices like maintaining a consistent sleep routine, creating a conducive sleep environment, managing stress, and limiting exposure to screens before bedtime.
