A recent survey states that people who decline proper sleeping are highly prone to deadly diseases such as hypertension, Insomnia and so on.
On the other hand, implementing the practice of mind developing such as reading and solving puzzles and so on is equally significant as it slows down the blood flow to the brain and reduces its temperature.
