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. Ayurved suggests a balance in the functioning of <em>Dosh</em>, <em>Dhatu</em> and <em>Mala</em> as well as <em>Agni</em> and <em>Ojas</em> along with pleasant status of <em>Atma</em>, <em>Indriya</em> and <em>Manas </em>are the basic requirements to be called as <em>Swasth</em>. 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. <em>Dincharya</em>, <em>Ratricharya</em> and <em>Ritucharya</em> 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 <em>Nidra</em> plays an important role in all of them. <em>Acharyas</em> have explained <em>Nidra</em>, its importance, its relation with <em>Prakriti</em>, <em>Vikriti</em>, its relation with different <em>Ritus</em> methods of proper sleep, consequences of improper <em>Nidra</em> and its management in detail. Here we explain the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda about the importance of ideal <em>Nidra</em> or sleep, <em>Nidranash</em> and role of proper <em>Nidra</em> in various lifestyle disorders.</p&gt;}, number={4}, journal={International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharma Research}, author={Dhingra Harsh}, year={2020}, month={May}, pages={83-86} }
