Sound sleep can do wonders to your overall health and the best way to reset and detoxify your system. Ayurveda considers sound sleep as one of the three pillars of health and it not only helps manage certain health conditions like blood pressure and diabetes, it can also play a big role in detoxifying your liver and improving metabolism and even fertility.
Many of us stay awake till late in the night glued to our gadgets, not able to relax the overactive mind and unable to get the recuperative benefits of early sleep.
