Valuing Sleep Without Stress

Focusing on sleep quality begins with recognizing its importance while avoiding excessive stress about achieving it. Establishing a regular sleep schedule, such as going to bed by 11 PM and waking up at 7 AM, helps create routine, but it's also essential to accept that occasional sleeplessness is normal. Simply resting in bed can be restorative even if one does not fall asleep immediately. This perspective promotes a healthier relationship with sleep, emphasizing rest's value over mere sleep quantity.
