Sleep Well: Strategies for a Deep Sleep
A good night's sleep is not a luxury, but a biological necessity. During sleep, our body repairs tissues and memories are stored.
What disrupts our sleep?
Many modern habits stand in the way of good sleep:
- Blue light: Screens inhibit the production of melatonin, our sleep hormone.
- Caffeine and alcohol: Caffeine stays in your system for up to 8 hours.
- Stress: A worrying brain keeps the body alert.
