Good sleep is not a waste of time, but a biological necessity. While we rest, our body performs vital maintenance: tissues are repaired, memories are consolidated, and toxic metabolic products are flushed from the brain. Without sufficient sleep, not only does our concentration suffer, but also our immune system and emotional stability.
However, in our modern world, healthy sleep is often in short supply. Blue light from screens, stress, and irregular routines throw our internal clock—the circadian rhythm—out of sync. The result: we lie awake even though we are tired. Fortunately, sleep research offers effective tools to resynchronize this rhythm.

The key lies in the routine. Regular bedtimes help the body prepare for the rest phase. A cool room temperature (about 18°C) and absolute darkness promote the production of the sleep hormone melatonin.
Avoid caffeine in the afternoon and integrate a relaxation routine before bed—be it reading, meditation, or a warm bath. Morning light exposure is also crucial: bright daylight right after waking signals the body 'Start' and firmly anchors the wake-sleep cycle. Small changes with a big impact on your quality of life.
