New Delhi, Jan 04 (IANSlife): As 2023 transitions to 2024, resolutions emerge. Individuals often make resolutions to exercise more, eat healthier, or learn a new skill. Yet, one crucial aspect of their well-being often slips through the cracks of their commitment – sleep.

In 2024, prioritise self-care, embracing life's simpler, meaningful facets. Reflect, engage, and commit to self-love through the serene beauty of restful sleep. Hence, a promise to self transcends a mere resolution; it's a pledge to commit to eight hours of sleep, a warm commitment to nurturing well-being through the enchantment of quality sleep.

Quality sleep positively impacts physical and mental health, productivity, and overall life quality. It's a universal need, pertinent across age groups. The Sleep Foundation reports that while 90% aspire to enhance sleep, only 48% succeed, with 56% rarely or never crafting sleep-focused resolutions.
