We spend almost a third of our lives sleeping – or at least we should be.
A lot goes on behind closed eyes – our bodies are actually quite busy when we’re not awake.
Throughout a night’s sleep the body performs key functions related to growth, development, hormone balance, cardiovascular system repair, emotional and cognitive brain functioning, and regulating the immune system’s ability to respond to foreign invaders. Sleep is one of our body’s essential natural rhythms, and cultivating healthy slumber is just as important as cultivating your health habits during waking hours.
