Components of Healthy Sleep

Healthy sleep involves the correct duration, timely alignment with one's body clock, regularity, and high quality. Adequate sleep duration typically ranges between seven to nine hours for most adults, with outliers who need significantly less being rare. Consistency in sleep timing assists in training circadian rhythms, with flexibility recommended to prevent stress. Sleeping in sync with one's body clock at night enhances overall daytime functioning, impacting academic, emotional, and physical health.
