How much sleep should I get daily?

Sleep is absolutely essential for your health. Although most men and women need about 7 to 8 hours of sleep per night, their sleep patterns are generally different. some people may need as few as 6 hours or as many as 10 hours of sleep each day. I usually sleep at least 6,5 hours and I'm trying to reach 7,5 - 8 hours. It's very important because sleep is necessary to help regulate hormones and body processes. Without enough sleep, your physical and emotional health can suffer. Sleep allows your body to rejuvenate from a day of abuse like working and stress.

This answer is different for everyone as it depends on your age, and the general length of your sleep cycles. It is usually recommended to NOT wake up in the middle of one of your sleep cycles so that you feel the most rested when you first wake up in the morning. One method that I used to determine this was to sleep for a different amount of time for an entire week and I logged when I felt the best when waking up. That helped me determine how long I should sleep before waking up to prevent waking up in the middle of a sleep cycle.

The ideal amount of daily sleep is between 7 to 9 hours. The right amount differs from person to person but most find that in order to function optimally, they need at least 7 hours. If a person has trouble falling asleep they should work on sleep hygiene. Good sleep hygiene includes shutting off all phones and tablets an hour before bed. Blue light will disrupt the sleep wake cycle. Try to relax and decompress from stress that has accumulated from the day. Also, getting in bed and waking up at roughly the same time everyday will help your body clock establish regular sleeping hours.

Will depending on your age if you are between 6 through 13 years old the recommended amount of sleep is 9 through 11 hours but what is appropriate for the age limit is seven up to 12 hours. Teenagers 14 through 17 years old the recommended amount of sleep is 8 to 10 hours. but what may also be appropriate is anywhere between 7 to 11 hours. another one which is for young adults 18 through 25 the recommended amount of sleep is 79 hours. But what is also acceptable is 6 to 11 hours of sleep. in older adults from 26 to 6479 hours of sleep is recommended. But it may be appropriate for them to get anywhere between 6 to 10 hours of sleep.

I would imagine the hours of sleep needed could be dependent upon your age as one of the factors. Teens need more sleep hours than adults. But everyone is different. If you googled this information, you might still want to proceed with caution and just really use it as a "rule of thumb" a little guide line. If you feel you are more tired than usual and are concerned or sleeping less, these are great things to bring up to your primary care physician/medical doctor. I think they would get a better understanding of your age, activity level, life style, etc and could be a great source to help with something like this.

It depends on the person, especially the age, and what you do during your day. There's a small minority of people who can live normally while sleeping only 3-4 hours, but sadly most of us need more sleep than that. Babies need a lot of sleep, children do as well. Teenagers often sleep less than they should and stay awake at night when they shouldn't. It's just hormones :). The official recommendation for adults is 7-8 hours but as i mentioned, you may sleep for as much as 10 hours, or as little as 4. *If you are worried your sleep patterns are abnormal, talk to a doctor or a psychologist!*

Based on age and daily activity the amount of time a person should get sleep differs. What I have learned is to set a time for when to go to bed, start a regimen. I where a Fitbit tracker that records my sleep patterns, this has helped me to see how much sleep I am getting every night, how often I am waking up and if I am restless. What I have noticed is that if I eat dinner earlier in the evening and have a glass of tea before bed I have been able to fall asleep faster. Every person differs, so there is no one direct answer to as how much sleep we should get.

How much sleep you need depends on you. I know someone who feel nice and fresh from merely 5 hours of sleep everyday. The average person apparently needs about 8 hours daily. If I get any sleep less than 10 hours, I feel sleep deprived. To determine how much sleep you need, try sleeping without an alarm clock. Get out of bed when you feel you can't fall asleep again. Record when you went to bed and when you woke up. The interval between when you slept and woke up is about how much sleep you need daily. Make sure you pay off your sleep debt before doing this experiment, because if you do this experiment when sleep deprived, your calculated daily sleep requirements will be higher than normal.

It is good practice to get 8 hours sleep. This helps performance in mental and physical activities. Sleep is a chance for your body to repair itself mentally and physically. Sleep is a necessary part of life, not a necessary evil. Let's help ourselves and those we love by encouraging more sleep. Sleep is something to do every day and is a chance to wind down from the stress of daily activity. Sleep is a time to enjoy the consideration of what you have done with your day. So make sure you get enough sleep.

You should aim for at least 7 hours. It’s alarming how many people neglect their sleeping schedule and think how that’s not really an important part in their journey to success (or anything, for that matter). It’s crucial to get at least 7 hours of sleep as sleep is when we recharge and regain majority (if not all) of our energy we expended throughout the day. Our brain works nonstop and sleep deprivation wouldn’t help it, now, would it? I truly hope everyone can squeeze 7 hours into their sleeping schedule. There are no excuses. It WILL change your life!
