It is known that Napoleon slept only 4 hours a day. This time was enough for him to rest and recuperate.
Each person has his own, purely individual norm of sleep. Six hours are enough for someone, and ten will be enough for someone.
To determine the optimal duration of your sleep, you need to conduct the following experiment. Within a few days, go to bed an hour and a half earlier than usual and sleep until you wake up without an alarm clock. If, on waking up, you feel awake and rested, it means that you have managed to establish your sleep rate.
There are times when we generally can not fall asleep. Occasionally, this happens in completely healthy people with overwork. But if insomnia began to be protracted, and those small intervals of sleep that occur during it are accompanied by nightmares or, conversely, too vivid dreams, it is worth sounding the alarm.
