In Ayurveda, sleep has been called natural at night. Natural sleep at night is essential for the balance of body and mind. When we sleep on time and get deep sleep, our body repairs itself.

There are many reasons which do not allow complete sleep. In this, your staying awake till late at night, sleeping untimely or sleeping for a long time during the day, all these habits harm your sleep. For this, you should sleep in a calm, comfortable environment at night and avoid oversleeping during the day. Apart from this, the best time to sleep for good sleep is 2-3 hours after sunset. At that time the body naturally starts going into a state of rest. Before sleeping, one should stay away from mobile, TV or bright lights so that the mind can calm down. Things like light music, an aroma lamp or meditation also help deepen sleep.
