According to survey it is believed thirty three percentages of people suffer from sleep which indirectly effect mental health and well-being and Psychiatric conditions like depression, anxiety, type2 diabetes and depression. Poor sleep makes it more difficult for coping up to minor stress and daily hassles can turn in to major form of frustration. Sleep has an important restorative function in ‘recharging’ the brain at the end of each day, just like we need to charge a mobile phone battery after prolonged use. Maintaining a regular sleep-wake cycle allows the natural rhythm of the body to be reset every day and therefore optimizes brain functioning.
