Sleep is a naturally recurring state of mind and body.  Characterized by altered consciousness, relatively inhibited sensory activity, inhibition of nearly all voluntary muscles, and reduced interactions with surroundings. It is distinguished from wakefulness by a decreased ability to react to stimuli, but more reactive than coma or disorders of consciousness, sleep displaying very different and active brain patterns.

During sleep, most of the body's systems are in an anabolic state, which helping to restore the immune system, nervous, skeletal, and muscular systems; these are the vital processes that maintain mood, memory, and cognitive function, and play a large role in the function of the endocrine and immune systems. The internal circadian clock promotes sleep daily at night. The diverse purposes and mechanisms of sleep are the subject of substantial ongoing research.

Humans may suffer from various sleep disorders, including dyssomnias such as insomniahypersomnianarcolepsy, and sleep apneaparasomnias which is sleepwalking and REM behavior disorder; bruxism; and circadian rhythm sleep disorders. The advent of artificial light has substantially altered sleep timing in industrialized countries
