Sleep & Recovery
Quality sleep is essential for physical repair, immune function, memory consolidation, and emotional regulation. Most adults need 7–9 hours of sleep per night. Poor sleep is linked to increased risk of obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and depression. Establishing a consistent sleep schedule, creating a dark and cool sleep environment, limiting screen time before bed, and avoiding caffeine in the afternoon can dramatically improve sleep quality and overall health.
