Abstract
Abstract: Nidra (sleep) is one of the most important components of a healthy and satisfying life, according to Ayurveda. It is one of the three big subsidiary pillars (trayopastambhas) on which a person's health is firmly balanced. Acharya Vagbhata claims that 'Happiness and sadness, nourishment (perfect body) and abnormalities, strength and debility, sexual prowess and impotence, wisdom and ignorance, life and death - all depend on sleep'. Improper or excessive sleep, or sleep at an inappropriate time, vitiates all three doshas. Vitiated vata dosha causes giddiness, stiffness all over the body, restlessness, lack of concentration and decision-making power, excessive yawning, headache, etc. while vitiated pitta dosha mainly causes digestion-related problems. When the Kapha dosha is vitiated, it causes dullness and heaviness throughout the body, as well as tiredness. Getting enough good sleep at the right times can help you maintain your mental and physical health, as well as your quality of life and safety. In order to detach a tired mind from the senses, it is necessary to get the right amount and good quality of sleep. The quality of sleep can be harmed by partial disconnection of mind. Although most people are aware of the benefits of a healthy diet and regular exercise, they usually neglect the importance of sleep, which can have serious health effects
Proper sleep, at the right time, is crucial for maintaining mental and physical health, as well as promoting happiness, sadness, nourishment, strength, sexual prowess, wisdom, and knowledge.
