Abstract : Sleep is essential for our well being and occupies about one third of our lifespan. Sleep affects how we await, feel and perform on a daily basis, which have a major shock on our overall quality of liveliness. Getting enough quality sleep at the right times can protect our physical and mental health, quality of life, and safety. The way we feel while we are awake depends in part on what happens while we were sleeping. The constructive effects of natural sleep have been very deeply considered and interpreted by both Ayurvedic classics and innovative researches. Certain people had considered sleep as a mere 'break down" time when our brain takes a rest. But recent researches show a very clear connection between proper sleep and well being of a person. Some of the medical conditions like diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular disease, etc. develop over long periods of time due to sleep loss. The present article is aimed to highlight the significance of proper sleep and effect of sleep deprivation on health in the view of Ayurveda and contemporary science.
