Slept 8 hours and still feel tired?
At bedtime, our mission is to help people develop the best sleeping habits possible. For many of us who struggle with sleep, simply getting in bed and falling asleep is 90% of the struggle. A smaller, yet significant, challenge is also evaluating our sleeping habits, especially given how inconsistent we can feel after a night of “great sleep”.
Researcher suggests that one cause of these inconsistencies may be how much time we set aside for ourselves to sleep. Studies show that healthy sleepers spend 90% of the time they are in bed asleep. Which is leading researchers to recommend that sleepers budget between 7.5 and 9 hours a night in bed in order to achieve the recommended 7–8 hours of actual sleep.
So tonight, try gifting yourself a little more time to sleep and see if you feel more refreshed tomorrow. Try our app to help you fall asleep faster as you do so.
