We make time table for studies as we can follow it and can complete our studies but we have never made a time table for our sleep. Infact we really do not know how much should we sleep everyday?
Sleep is something that we need everyday but really speaking we have to be very careful to monitor our sleep.
Even excess of sleep can be dangerous and the same with shorter sleep.
A person's major sleep episode is relatively inefficient and inadequate when it occurs at the "wrong" time of day; one should be asleep at least six hours before the lowest body temperature.
A University of California, San Diego psychiatry study of more than one million adults found that people who live the longest self-report sleeping for six to seven hours each night.
Researchers at the University of Warwick and University College London have found that lack of sleep can more than double the risk of death from cardiovascular disease, but that too much sleep can also be associated with a doubling of the risk of death, though not primarily from cardiovascular disease.
A person who performs yoga regularly should get a sleep of 5-6 hrs a day.
In this busy world, there are people who gets a sleep of 3-4 hrs a day and then there are students who are preparing for exam having the whole day off sleep almost 8-10 hrs a day which is seen as a big risk.
Sleep has to be a sound sleep of 5-6 hrs a day which leaves you around 17 hrs a day and therby allowing you to study for 10 hrs everyday.
Sleeping for 8-10 hrs leaves you a very less time for your studies.
So how much do you sleep?
