Sleep is very important for the rebuilding and repair of the body and for the restoration of a healthy and balanced mental state. Life’s joys are less obvious in the absence of periods of deep and refreshing sleep.

So what exactly happens in sleep that allows a person to wake up feeling refreshed and how is sleep naturally induced?

Our natural sleep cycle begins with the start of darkness. Special photosensitive receptor cells in the eyes signal the brain when light levels diminish to convert the brain chemical “seratonin” (the chemical of wakefulness and activity) into “melatonin” (the brain chemical of sleep and restoration). Receptor cells within the stomach also trigger a similar response after the ingestion of food.

How can a sleep mask assist?
Sleep masks work by fooling the body into the production of melatonin by simulating the onset of darkness. This is significantly important for people who find themselves in situations that are in opposition to the body’s own natural sleep state, such as night-shift workers or airline travelers.
