Minka Fuhs, director of the Holistic Learning Institute in Vienna, Austria, says: “Sleeplessness is a serious problem. Nearly 40 per cent of all people over 40 years of age suffer from sleeping disorders and even the number of children sufferers rise constantly. A body that does not relax properly is endangered because of increased potential of elevated blood pressure and heart attack. Insomniacs may endanger others because of the lack of concentration that can precipitate accidents. If we sleep right, it helps us to stay healthy and recover from our daily challenges”.
