World Sleep Day 2023 is an annual event observed on the Friday before the Spring Vernal Equinox to raise awareness about the significance of sleep. This year, it falls on March 17, 2023. The day aims to reduce the burden of sleep disorders on society by promoting better prevention and management. The World Sleep Committee of the World Sleep Society, founded by World Association of Sleep Medicine (WASM) and World Sleep Federation (WSF), organizes this day. Just as exercising and consuming healthy food is essential for the body, sleep is also crucial for maintaining good health. While we sleep, our brains recharge and our bodies heal. Recognizing the importance of sleep can help address the issue of sleep disorders.

The World Sleep Society has announced the theme for this year’s Sleep Day as ‘Sleep is Essential for Health’. The purpose of this theme is to emphasize the importance of good sleep for overall physical, mental, and social well-being, just as a healthy diet and exercise are essential for good health.
In today’s fast-paced world, people’s lifestyles have become increasingly busy and stressful due to factors such as longer working hours and increased commuting time. However, in recent years, the importance of getting good sleep has been emphasized to ensure consistent performance, leading to the rise in initiatives like World Sleep Day.
The World Sleep Society views World Sleep Day as an opportunity to promote sleep health alongside thousands of other sleep health professionals and advocates. They believe that by promoting sleep health and raising awareness about it, we can work together to achieve a greater impact than the sum of our individual efforts. The society encourages everyone to spread the word about sleep health on World Sleep Day and help elevate the conversation around it.
World Sleep Day was first observed on March 14, 2008, as an initiative of the World Sleep Society. The annual event is aimed at raising awareness about the importance of sleep and the impact that sleep disorders can have on an individual’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being. The day was created as a way to bring together sleep experts, researchers, and healthcare professionals from around the world to discuss sleep-related issues and promote healthy sleep habits. Since then, World Sleep Day has been observed on the Friday before the Spring Vernal Equinox each year, with a new theme chosen to focus on a specific aspect of sleep health.
