Why Sleep Matters: The Science Behind a Restful Night
Sleep is more than just catching some Zzz’s. During sleep, our bodies and minds undergo a complex restorative process:
Circadian Rhythm: Our internal clock, influenced by light exposure, regulates sleep-wake cycles.
Sleep Stages: We cycle through various sleep stages, including deep sleep (essential for physical repair) and REM sleep (important for memory and learning).
Hormones: Sleep is vital for hormone regulation. Melatonin promotes sleepiness, while growth hormone aids in cell repair.
