How Much Sleep Do You Get/Need a Night?

    Right now I am averaging between 5 and 7 hours a night....prob getting 6 hours more nights than not though..... I want to start getting more and higher quality
    sleep.

    Any ideas or tips on consistently getting 8 or more hours every night? I wake up alot during the night as well. I try not to have any electronics turned on and to

    make sure my room is cool and dark but still my mind keeps thinking when i should be sleeping.

    Its amazing how different of a person I am on a full nights sleep compared to a bad night sleep. I really think we underrate sleep here in the USA...

    Whats your opinion?

    I think the best sleeping duration is at least 8 hours. You should not be nervous or distraught at the time you go to sleep. Just be relax and release all the worries and strains.

    I get 5 hours of sleep on most nights, sometimes less. Now it's not because I have a lot to do or anything, it's simply because. Have a very hyperactive mind that refuses to rest. Haha.
    But I agree...getting a good night sleep can definitely increase your productivity the next day.

    Maybe you should listen to relaxing music before sleeping, for me it depends, sometimes I sleep just 6 hours, sometimes 12, but average about 7 hours. It's very important to sleep enough (at least 7-8 hrs).

    I've been averaging about 4.5 -5 hours a night for the past 25 years, and am quite healthy for it. Actually, if I could, I'd completely avoid wasting 30 plus hours a week to sleep, but at the moment this isn't possible.

    You should try drinking some warm milk before going to bed. :)
    I sleep for around 6 to 8 hours daily. ;)

    If I'm in a dark, cool and quiet environment I'm good for 9 hours. When I'm trying to get to sleep but my mind is racing I listen to quietness (if that makes sense lol) and if the chatter is really bad I follow that with meditation.
