This Friday, March 17 is not just about celebrating St Patrick’s Day it also marks a global awareness campaign geared at highlighting how important sleep is to general health.
Over 70 countries will participate in this event by organizing local, regional, and national activities to promote sleep health.
The 2023 Theme: Sleep Is Essential for Health
The World Sleep Day wesbite notes: “Just like eating well and exercising, sleep is a behavior that is foundational to one’s physical, mental, and social well-being. However, sleep is not yet commonly considered an essential behavior for good health. World Sleep Day is an opportunity to promote sleep health alongside thousands of other sleep health professionals and advocates. When we all promote sleep health and #WorldSleepDay together, our combined effort is greater than the sum of its parts. Spread the word about sleep health on World Sleep Day, and help elevate the conversation around sleep!”
