EditorialDearreaders,
Sleep psychologist Prof. Günther W. AmannJennson confirms that most people suffer from chronic sleep deprivation and explains what we can do about it.
And sleep is not only relevant to the field of science, but also makes its way into the work of artists, literary figures, and philosophers. You'll find several beautiful examples a little later in this magazine.
Happy reading!
These works go hand in hand with the HANRO philosophy, which pays tribute to a sophisticated sleep culture marked by premium feel-good

It's true what they say, a good night's sleep is worth its weight in gold! Nothing is quite so important to our health, quality of life, and wellbeing. And yet, more and more people find it difficult to sleep. We therefore decided to create a magazine dedicated to sleep. True to its title "the art of sleep," this magazine approaches sleep from a variety of perspectives to inform, surprise, entertain, and inspire its readers.

HOW DID YOU SLEEP?
Wow, is it morning already? We all know what it's like to wake up after a night of little or no sleep.
Sleep tight
Sleep is an extremely fickle thing that can come and go for any number of reasons. It's therefore not always easy to pinpoint why you can't sleep. However, given that around 90% of people today don't get enough shut-eye, it's high time we take a closer look at the nature of sleep.
According to experts, your bedroom should therefore be as minimalist as possible: a comfortable bed with a breathable mattress, a small table, a lamp, absolute darkness, a temperature of 16 to 18 °C, and the perfect nightwear are the ingredients for the kind of sleep we all crave but rarely get.
FACTS
First of all, regularity and good timing are essential to proper sleep. It's not for nothing that the rising sun is our signal to get up and about, or that the hormone melatonin is released in our bodies at night to help us fall asleep and (preferably!) stay asleep the whole night through. And since our bodies - like any living thing - follow cycles and rhythms, you're better off giving in to this instinct and establishing a consistent time for going to bed and getting up in the morning.
An absolute no-no is a "digitalized bedroom," especially in today's world where we tend to use our laptops and smartphones until our eyes close. The radiation and blue light from digital devices have been shown to interfere with the process of falling (and staying) asleep. And by the time we've finally laid our phones down to charge - in flight mode, please!our brains are no longer able to recharge fully because they have been flooded with images right up until the time we close our eyes and try to sleep.

center between short and long-term memory. It has enough space for a day's worth of thoughts, impressions, and sensations that are relayed by synapses in the brain. When these synapses are overloaded (usually at the end of the day), your brain feels exhausted because its hippocampus has run out of space. At night, while we sleep, our brains "recharge," which is another way of saying they process our impressions from the day.
How do you "shut off" your mind?
According to Dr. Michael Nehls, author of the book "The Exhausted Brain," the "charging station" that serves this purpose is located in the hippocampus, which is found in the middle of the brain and named after a seahorse because of its shape. The hippocampus is where are memories are formed, and serves as the control
BIOLOGY
When it comes to sleep needs, everyone is different. Some people wake up nice and refreshed after six hours, while others need
Brains that fail to recharge fully during sleep are unable to think positively and perform vital life-affirming processes. At full power, our brains can properly reflect on our experiences and think creatively and out-of-the-box, allowing us to be empathetic and make smart decisions. But all this requires energy, which is eventually exhausted and must be recharged, like a battery.

ten hours to start the day on the right foot. Most experts recommend an average of seven to eight hours of sleep per night.
In fact, night after night we get a little wiser. Dreams and their accompanying cognitive processes are not just important to our recharges, but also fundamental to our mental and emotional maturity. You may also experience a pleasant side effect: our brains consider everything we thought about before falling
The right nightwear is vital to your overall sleeping comfort. High-quality, natural materials are pleasant on the skin and breathable to prevent sweating and freezing.
Sleep lets your mind run free
Finally, a positive mindset anchored in deep faith or conviction or a greater purpose in life can help you fall asleep more relaxed.
To allow your digestive organs to detoxify overnight, try to refrain from consuming fatty foods, caffeine, or alcohol for up to three hours before going to sleep. Instead, nibble on a few nuts.
Exercise improves sleep: Outdoor activities are ideal, for the more sunlight the body absorbs, the faster the natural sleep aid melatonin is released in the evening.

Can you think of another exciting thing that happens while we recharge? That's right, we dream! Concretely speaking, dreams occur when the brain processes all the significant thoughts and experiences from the previous day and interweaves them with memories or existing knowledge.
We also differ when it comes to when we go to bed at night and get up in the morning. These preferences are determined by our biological clocks and have an impact on the times of the day we are most efficient. In other words, at certain points in your life you're an owl, at others a lark. As babies, we get up early, while during our teenage years we sleep the morning away and want to stay up late at night. With age, we once again become early risers or larks.

Socks create heat by improving the flow of blood in your feet. This causes your body temperature to drop, which in turn provides your brain with the impulse to induce sleep.

SLEEP CULTURE BY HANRO
HANRO has been celebrating the culture of sleep since 1927long before it became fashionable to get a perfect night of sleep. Our legendary archive in Liestal (Basel, Switzerland) features one-of-a-kind nightwear that caused a sensation back then and is still cult to this day.

sleep while you can Albert Einstein was not only passionate about physics, but also sleep! He was said to have indulged in 12 hours of shut-eye a day, which in no way prevented him from becoming the most famous physicist of the 20th century. In fact, this exorbitant amount of time spent in the horizontal position actually fueled his mental activity. Rumor has it Einstein came up with his legendary formula "e=mc²" while he was just hanging around and unwinding.

short & sweet sleep!
Hurray for the power nap! But beware – if you nap for too long, you're likely to feel sluggish later in the day. Take Salvador Dali, who was an avid midday napper. Dali would plop down on an armchair with a spoon in his hand. As soon as his sleep became deeper, the spoon would come loose between his fingers and fall to the floor. Dali awoke, and feeling refreshed, resumed his work.

"It seems that we humans sleep a reverse sleep: our brain sleeps while our body is awake. The body fidgets tirelessly while the brain is paralyzed by an overabundance of similar yet contradictory information absorbed in far too short a time. Things change so quickly that any possible reactions to them are doomed to the past in advance without ever reaching the present."

In 2019, sleep - or rather the film noir classic "The Big Sleep" by Howard Hawks, based on a novel by Raymond Chandler - was the title and contextual element of the 4th Artists' Biennale at the Haus der Kunst in Munich. "The Big Sleep" is often understood in literature as a symbol for the unconscious. This parallels the persistent state of stress that characterizes our society today. 32 artists presented their own personal ideas on the topic of sleep, which has become more and more relevant over the past three years.

Nothing beats a night of deep and peaceful sleep. But let's face it, we don't always get the rest we need or deserve. In the summer, the heat makes us toss and turn for hours, while in the winter, we often shiver in bed despite our thick blankets.

'Woolen Sleep' shirts and pants - a line for women and men, made of wool and TENCELTM Lyocell fibers
MERINO WOOL
Nightwear made from a blend of wool and TENCELTM Lyocell is incredibly innovative. These "smart" materials are both warming and breathable. Wool offers excellent heat retention by design. TENCELTM Lyocell fibers are extremely soft and wick moisture away from the skin.
Our premium merino wool comes from South African farms that guarantee the welfare of their animals and refrain from using the controversial mulesing procedure. Merino wool is lightweight, odorless, insulating, and anti-static. It wicks away moisture, maintains its shape, rarely pills, and does not scratch.

You've already written a few books. Can you tell us a little bit about them?
people improve their circadian rhythms. In simple terms, the idea was to significantly improve sleep. My second idea was a lot more imaginative. I wanted to provide therapy to people during their sleep. 40 years ago, people just shook their heads and asked, "How can you give therapy to a person who is asleep?" Today, at SAMINA, we offer a range of passive therapies. Incidentally, the right nightwear is also a type of passive treatment.

I ran a psychological practice in Feldkirch in the 1980s. Within the first few years, I noticed that patients with mental, psychological, and health problems had one common denominator: poor sleep. This was my starting point in the world of sleep. 40 years ago, sleep problems weren't really an issue. Even today, sleep rarely gets the attention it deserves from the medical field – only lately have we seen things starting to change. Nevertheless, studies now show that 80 to 90% of all people have trouble sleeping.
A holistic view, sensitivity, reflection, and expertise: For more than 40 years, Prof. Günther W. Amann Jennson has approached the highly complex topic of sleep from a number of different levels. We sat down with the sleep psychologist to discover everything you need to know to have sweet dreams and enjoy better all-around sleep.
One of the best tools is music. Research on the effects of music studies the extent to which music improves our wellbeing, health, and sleep. Our online magazine simplyhealthysleep.com also covers all the interesting aspects of sleep, and the things that help with sleep problems and disorders.
Why do so many people have difficulty sleeping?
Sleep comes, but you need to prepare for it –or be perfectly equipped, so to speak.
A number of factors must be reunited in order for you to sleep - and these factors have changed dramatically
The right nightwear is also a type of passive treatment. Because once we're asleep, we can no longer change anything. This is something people must understand.
Why has sleep become such an important topic in recent years?
the art of sleep 35
Sleep recharges us physical ly, mentally, and emotionally. It balances out the energy we expended throughout the day. Sleep is also vital to a properly functioning im mune system. While in deep sleep, our brains rid them selves of harmful toxins which (among other things) can cause dementia. This is a highly complex process. In order for it to work, you must get enough sleep.
At night, we constantly toss and turn, regulating our body temperature without knowing it. The right nightdress or pajamas can help keep us at the ideal temperature.
breathing slow down and your muscles become less tense. Your hormone levels also change. Sleep blocks us off from reality. The moment you fall asleep, you are more or less disconnected from the outside world. You are no longer conscious - at best, your subconscious and super conscious remain active.
Why is sleep so important?
Simply put, because we are no longer able to sleep. Society has become more aware of the importance of sleep. Health-conscious people -
in the past 40 years. In today's world, getting a good night's sleep is a form of art. Sleep no longer comes automatically - you have to plan it. This is the only way to combat stress, or the biggest adversary of sleep. Stress releases hormones that make it difficult for people to fall asleep. Beyond a certain level, stress induces a "fight or flight" response that is impossible to ward off. We then find ourselves in a permanent
such as biohackers who strive to measure and improve their body functions - are now "awake." These functions in clude sleep and heart rate variability, which is used to determine how well our bod ies recover. An ECG is taken, which monitors the intervals between two heartbeats. New technologies allow for variability to be measured extremely accurately. The higher the variability, the better your body functions. These findings are helping to shine the spotlight on the importance of sleep.
The second pertinent aspect of sleep is that it is revers ible. No matter how deeply someone is sleeping, you can always wake them up.
What contributes to healthy sleep?
What role does nightwear play in a good night's sleep?
The rule is quite simple: for every two hours awake, we need one hour of sleep. This is a law of nature. From a purely statistical point of view, people who get 7 to 8 hours of sleep per night are the healthiest and live the longest. In my opinion, this is the perfect amount of sleep. But we also need to think about the quality of sleep. It's no use sleeping 8 hours if it's the wrong kind of sleep.
Healthy sleep depends on a number of key factors. In particular, the conditions of your sleeping place (i.e., your bedroom) are of the utmost importance. Your sleeping place must be optimized if you wish to get a good night of sleep. Rule of thumb for better sleep: Go to bed at the same time, and get up at the same time. Ideally, your bedroom should also be quiet and dark. 90% of people have far too much light in their bedrooms at night, which may disrupt their sleep. In addition, your sleeping place should have plenty of fresh air (without pollution). We generate many air pollutants ourselves by keeping synthetic and chemical materials in our bedrooms.
Go to bed at the same time, and get up at the same time.
sleep stage, and the dream (REM) stage. Each stage is compared with the other to determine whether sleep is good or poor. I've been measuring sleep for more than 20 years and I rarely come across someone who sleeps really well. Our latest innovation is called the "SAMINA Sound Light Sleep System."
For every two hours awake, we need one hour of sleep.
And finally, your bed itself plays the most important role in ensuring you get restful, restorative, and bioenergetic sleep.

How can I improve the quality of my sleep?
and above all - on our sleep. We all suffer from chronic sleep deprivation.
It is a combination of music and colored light therapy. Music and light are the ideal mediums for controlling "fight or flight" responses. Fortunately, today we no longer have to fight or flee, but the response continues to be activeit's simply part of our biological makeups.
Sleep occurs in stages. There's the falling asleep stage, the light sleep stage, the deep
Our body temperature changes during sleep. This is the main reason why we use nightwear (instead of sleeping naked). 70-80% of people today experience pain in their back, muscles, or joints. Sleep is vital for reinforcing these areas. In other words, for repairing joints, re building muscle tissue, and eliminating things that we no longer need. In this way, sleep is the ultimate detoxifier. If you use nightwear made of a material that can absorb the half or whole liter of sweat that the body secretes overnight, then the conditions of your sleep are complete

ly different. The "climate" of your bed is actually vital to the proper functioning of your body, including its detoxifica tion process and the regeneration of its organs.
Which materials do you recommend?
Natural fibers are best, as they "communicate" naturally with the body. In fact, the more natu ral the fibers, the more they resonate with our bodies. Another important factor when choos ing materials is the ability to regulate body temperature and moisture. One of the primary functions of nightwear is to absorb moisture, or the film of moisture that forms on the skin. Sleeping naked is not a good idea on hot and humid nights as you've probably opened a window or set up a fan, which subsequently

The closer something is to your body, the more it affects your sleep. Your underwear is your second skin, your night wear is your third skin, and your bed is your fourth skin. Ideally, these layers will interact with each other.

HANRO: You're a mother of three and always on the road. How do you get enough sleep?
Despite her success, Viky Rader has remained incredibly down-to-earth. And in spite of her many event trips, photo shoots, and VIP appearances, she still makes her family her priority. Since so much is going on all the time, getting enough sleep is an absolute necessity.
VIKY RADER : It's not easy! But since my boys starting sharing a bedroom, they sleep a lot better and I have more time to care for my daughter Athena, who's still an infant. I'm also really grateful for the people who help out while I'm traveling or during other super intense times, as they allow me to get at least six or seven hours of sleep per night. When I'm on the road, I can usually make do with little sleep for the first three days. After that it becomes difficult. I rarely have time for power naps, but a workout (yoga & endurance exercises) followed by a massage is the perfect way to unwind and compensate for a lack of sleep. This restores the balance between my body and soul! Another must while traveling is my "calming tea" before bed, as well as a pillow spray or oil.
