Abstract | Sleep is a vital biological process essential for physical health and cognitive functioning, characterized by distinct stages including rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM sleep. This research paper delves into the complexities of sleep anatomy, the prevalence and types of sleep disorders such as insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, and sleep-related breathing issues, and the multifaceted impacts these disorders have on daily functioning. Emphasizing the role of melatonin—a hormone critical for regulating sleep-wake cycles—the paper examines its physiological mechanisms, pharmacological properties, and therapeutic applications in treating sleep disorders. Additionally, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is discussed as an effective treatment modality for insomnia, focusing on altering detrimental sleep-related thought patterns and behaviors. Practical recommendations for fostering better sleep hygiene are presented, underscoring the importance of consistent sleep schedules and a conducive sleep environment. Overall, the study highlights the intricate interplay between sleep physiology, psychological factors, and therapeutic interventions, advocating for a comprehensive approach to sleep health management to enhance overall well-being. |
