“Tired minds don’t plan well. Sleep first, plan later.” – Walter Reisch

We live in a world where we are so proud of being busy, having no time for our health and above all, sometimes we even boast about working overtime to get our work done. We are so preoccupied with the thought of what we want to be as a professional that we have completely forgotten the importance of a healthy lifestyle. Our current hard-pressed schedules intrinsically promote a poor lifestyle which in turn causes many health problems in a longer run. And, sleep being an important part of our health gets affected the most by our unhealthy lifestyle.

And, only if you knew how beneficial a good night’s sleep could be for your overall health, you would sleep like a baby every day. So, let’s discuss some benefits of having a good night sleep to get a clearer perspective.
