People have investigated a lot about other things such as hunger, emotions, and things like reproduction but not many have tried to investigate the purpose of sleeping. A few decades earlier there was a notion that sleeping happens to be a useless activity so people started trying to remain awake for a longer period of time in order to enhance their productivity level but it didn’t give any positive results. Here the director of the Sleep and Neuroimaging Lab i.e Matthew Walker has come up with all the answers. He has proved through this book that sleeping is the most essential part of our life.
Sleeping improves our memory and it gives the mind enough power to show creative behavior. The immune system of the body gets strong during the sleeping hours that’s why a person rests more and more if he is feeling sick or tired. Dreams also bring creative thoughts to mind as they blend our past and present without our instructions.
Lack of sleep causes issues like tension and anxiety. Most of the time diseases like diabetes also result when you are not getting proper sleep. Proper tension-free sleep provides you with good mental and physical health, it also ensures a long life too.
