The Importance of a Great Night’s Sleep

After a long day, there’s nothing better than pulling back your fresh linen sheets and jumping into bed. This is your time to relax and unwind, allowing the world to melt away as you settle into a great night’s sleep. But, are you aware of just how important sleep really is? It’s one of - if not the - most important bodily functions, so it’s essential to make sure you’re getting a minimum of eight hours of sleep every night. Why? Here we discuss the benefits of having a great night’s sleep.

Sleep reduces stress

 

Life has never been so busy and full of distractions; from jam-packed work schedules to more entertainment options than ever before, it can often feel like we’re overloaded with information on a day-to-day basis. As a result of such busy lifestyles, our bodies produce increased levels of stress hormones - especially when we don’t get enough sleep. A good night’s sleep can help to reduce this spike in cortisol, helping us to stay calm and relaxed even during our busiest days.

Sleep reduces blood pressure

 

By regulating the levels of stress hormones your body releases, good quality sleep can also help to reduce your blood pressure. In turn, reduced blood pressure can reduce your risk of developing heart problems and can have an overall positive effect on your health.

Sleep improves your mood

 

Not only does great sleep quality improve your health, but it can also have a hugely positive effect on your mood. When you’re deprived of sleep, you are much more likely to spend the day in a bad mood and become unusually frustrated and irritable. However, when you wake up after a blissful night of uninterrupted sleep, you are much more likely to remain calm and happy throughout the day.

 

There’s no denying the pleasure that comes with having a good night’s sleep, and as a hotel owner, this is something you should aim to give your guests when they stay in your establishment. There are many great ways to do this, but the most important is making sure your hotel beds are fitted with the finest linen possible.
