Curing a diseased person and reshaping his health status is also an aim of Ayurved. The concept of prevention was explained for the very first time in Ayurved and it is now a very basic health aspect of society.

To stay healthy one must understand the routine changes occurring in body according to the biological clock as well as seasonal changes. Ayurved advocates to understand the importance of following proper lifestyle as described. Dincharya, Ratricharya and Ritucharya are key important factors to adjust the routine environmental changes. The lifestyle changes in the recent times have led to a huge number of disorders like hypertension, obesity, Diabetes Mellitus, polycystic ovary disease (PCOD), depression, metabolic syndromes, cirrhosis and other diseases of liver and lack of proper sleep or Nidra plays an important role in all of them.

Here we explain the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda about the importance of ideal Nidra or sleep, Nidranash and role of proper Nidra in various lifestyle disorders.
