Dr. Sarkar said, “It should not happen that a person sleeps at 9 pm, the next day at 3 am and the next day at 5 am. There should be a fixed bedtime. If a person sleeps at midnight every day, he should try to sleep at the same time every day. When a person sleeps at the same time and even if he gets only seven hours of sleep instead of eight hours every day, it is enough for him.
How to sleep well?
