Don’t make it too complicated.

National Sleep Foundation guidelines1 advise that healthy adults need
between 7 and 9 hours of sleep per night. Babies, young children, and teens
need even more sleep to enable their growth and development. People over 65
should also get 7 to 8 hours per night.

Knowing the general recommendations for how much sleep you need is a first
step. Then It’s important to reflect on your individual needs based on
factors like your activity level and overall health. And finally, of
course, it’s necessary to apply healthy sleep tips

you can actually get the full night’s sleep that’s recommended.
