Sleep is one of the important act {kriya} in ayurveda. More emphasis is given to sleeping in ayurveda. Sleeping is important for a healthy and disease free body. Individuals who sleep and awake on right time have a healthy mind and soul. This is because sleeping on right time gives enough time for the body to process the food we ate. But if we do not sleep on right time food is not churned well in the stomach leading to the cause of several diseases such as indigestion , acidity and uneasiness.
So what are the rules of sleeping according to Ayurveda:
- Having a deep sleep from 10 pm. to 4 am. helps cure most health problems.
- For a healthy mind and body at least sleep for 6 hours and maximum of 7 n 1/2 hours.
- It is recommended to wake up and bath before sunrise. This helps in healthy mind and body.
- Never leave the bed as soon as you wake up. Instead we must close our eyes sit straight and meditate for at least 1-2 minute. While meditating take your lord's name. This will result in positive energy in ourself and also you will have a good start of your day.
- If you face less sleeping problems then wash your feet with lukewarm water and dry it completely.
