One Way To Find Out How Much Sleep You Actually Need (animated)

One of the problems in today's society is that we're purposely getting less sleep than our bodies need. Usually it's because we have to go to work, or go to school. And this is bad, as we're sacrificing our health in return.

Because of that, getting enough sleep can be a huge hidden advantage for you. Imagine having your brain function more efficiently than of those around you. That's what the right amount of sleep will get you. Better mood, better focus, ability to think clearly etc.
But getting sufficient sleep for just one night isn't enough. You need to get enough sleep every single night to reap these benefits.

Now you might be wondering, exactly how much sleep should you be getting.
The standard prescription is 7-9 hours, but how do you know where exactly you personally fall in that range?

First you need to understand that you, as an individual, are completely unique.
And the amount of sleep your body requires also depends on many different external factors.
That means there isn't an exact amount of sleep you should be getting, as the amount actually changes from day to day.

In this video I'll explain how to find out, how much sleep YOU PERSONALLY need.

Tried it. Was late for work. Got fired.

[smmusicplus]

If I slept 12 hours a day, I wouldn't have a job.

[CaffeinatedCutie]

I either get 3 hours or 13 hours

There is no in-between.

Who else wakes up early when they have a free day but can't get out of bed if they have to go to school, work, etc.?

If you have to set an alarm to get up at a certain time, get a timer for a bedside lamp. Being awakened by light is gentler than being awakened by an alarm clock. If you are in deep sleep when the lamp comes on, it probably won't wake you up. So set an alarm clock to go off 10 minutes later. That, of course, will wake you up, but thanks to the lamp, you probably won't be in deep sleep when the alarm clock goes off.

I love the irony that I'm watching this at 12 a.m. and have to wake up at 4:45 a.m.

[dossantosfilipe]

How do i tell my boss that i can’t work cuz i need more sleep ? 😂😂😂

[yelwinaung]

"You're not lazy if you sleep more"
Well...my mom thinks i am.

To do this, we need to go to bed EARLIER, so that we're awake BEFORE the alarm (safeguard) goes off.

[minminspace]

For anyone willing to try this: start on weekends and notice when you wake up naturally, and then on first weekday set an emergency alarm at the latest possible time, prepare ahead of time for work ( prep breakfast, bag, work, outfit, plan whatever you need) for the fastest bed to office/class. If you wake up before your alarm, then get up right away. If you don’t, that means you need to sleep earlier. Make sure you don’t do this on days you went out of your routine (example: hanging out till late, revenge procrastination, deadline work or study). Eventually you’ll start getting sleepy at a regular time if you maintain a regular wake up time. Include exercise or physical activity in your day as well.

I just got 2 hours of sleep I'm here watching this while getting ready for school.

[gerson]

School: 6 hours, take it or leave it.

[quaffie]

my experience on waking up without an alarm so far:
night 1: 12h
night 2: 5h
night 3: 12h
night 4: 3h

I got an ad about how much sleep to have before the video 😂

[flawmore]

I go up at 06:00, work starts at 07:00, so if I slept 10h that would mean I'd have to go to bed at 8 in the Just doesn't work in real life.
I typically sleep 6-7h, and yes I'm tired in the morning but what's the alternative? I refuse to only work and sleep. I need to live too.
