World Sleep Day is an annual event, intended to bring attention to sleep and all sleep related issues.
On Friday, the globe will unite for World Sleep Day to host activities incorporating the slogan, ‘Sleep Soundly, Nurture Life.’
The focus is purposefully broad in meaning, surrounding the message that quality of life with a sleep disorder can be improved, but recognition of sleep’s importance for overall health and well-being must come first. Though most sleep disorders are preventable or treatable, less than one-third of sufferers seek professional help.
Using collaborative efforts energised by sleep professionals all over the world, the focus of World Sleep Day is to bring cognisance to the many burdens of sleep problems. World Sleep Day publicly displays efforts being taken toward prevention and management of sleep disorders.
