Behind Closed Thoughts Of Why We Sleep

When I first reflected on Why We Sleep, I thought mostly about rest, energy, and physical health. But the deeper I looked into it, the more I realized sleep is tied to far more than simply feeling tired or refreshed. Behind sleep exists an entire hidden world of emotional processing, memory, mental recovery, dreams, fear, stress, healing, and the quiet restoration of the mind itself.

What unsettled me most was realizing how much happens internally while we are unconscious-how the brain continues working through thoughts, emotions, and experiences long after the outside world goes silent. This book comes from reflecting on those hidden realities.
