The importance of a good night's sleep
Up to one third of the population may suffer from insomnia (lack of sleep or poor quality sleep) or other sleep problems.
Sleep is essential – good sleep means good health.
Getting enough good quality sleep each night is as important for our bodies as eating, drinking and breathing.
Poor sleep or not enough sleep is linked to physical problems like a weak immune system as well as mental health issues such as anxiety and depression.
More reasons why good sleep is important:
- Improved concentration / enhances cognitive function
- Boosts metabolism
- Helps stabilise moods
Sleep in total darkness with Magic Blackout Blinds as seen on Dragons’ Den
Did you know that any light in your bedroom affects your sleep? Even light from outside shining through your window can disrupt your sleep.
When it gets dark our bodies produce melatonin which is the hormone that makes us feel sleepy.
Even the slightest ray of sunlight or artificial light inhibits the secretion of melatonin making it difficult to fall or stay asleep. Melatonin has been linked to preventing disease like Alzheimer’s and fibromyalgia as well as chronic fatigue so sleeping in darkness can help to protect our health.
