In this program we'll learn about the importance of a good night's sleep, sleep disorders and the treatment options for insomnia. We spend about one-third of our time asleep and more than 75% of Americans between the ages of 20 and 59 report having difficulty sleeping on a regular basis. People over 60 may not sleep as deeply as those of a younger age. Sleep is just as important as diet and exercise and the amount of sleep you need depends on your age, health and lifestyle. Most adults need 7 to 8 hours of sleep each night. However, many people do not allow enough time to rest and get enough sleep. Lack of sleep can have a negative impact on your mood, concentration and energy as well as an effect on your overall health and quality of life.
