Sixteenth-century British dramatist Thomas Dekker said,” Sleep is that golden chain that ties health and our bodies together,” while the Dalai Lama said, “Sleep is the best meditation.”
It is no longer a debate as to whether getting a good night’s sleep can help people regain their energy and refresh their minds. In fact, one-third of a person’s daily life is composed of resting on a bed. Therefore, it is crucial to sleep comfortably because it affects your health.
