On average, an adult needs 8 hours of sleep to rest and start the day fresh. However, research has revealed that women need more sleep than men. Sleeping at night is a natural remedy for human beings to deal with stress and depression. Let us dive straight into the topic of why women need more sleep than men. What Did Jim Horne Say About the Sleeping Patterns of Both Genders? Jim Horne, the director of the Sleep Research Centre at Loughborough University in London, explained that women tend to multitask more often than men on a daily basis. Women engage in many errands at a time, which requires much concentration. The more you use your brain, the more rest you need. Therefore, a tranquil sleep of more than eight hours at night for women is necessary for brain recovery. It would be wrong to categorize it as laziness. Jim Horne’s Book: Sleepfaring Jim Horne also wrote a book titled Sleepfaring: A Journey Through the Science of Sleep. In it, he discusses significant topics such as sleep deprivation, REM sleep, and brain psychology. In an interview with Daily Mail, he said, “The more of your brain you use during the day, the more of it that needs to recover, and consequently, the more sleep you need.” How Much More Sleep Do Women Need? According to Horne, women need an average of 20 minutes more sleep than men, in addition to the standard eight hours. Do We Really Need More Sleep as Adults? Studies show that adults usually sleep fewer hours each night. About one-third of adults sleep less than seven hours per night regularly. The best way to know if you’ve had enough sleep is if you wake up feeling refreshed and peaceful. Walking and minimal exercise each day can help alleviate sleep deprivation issues. for more updates follow ANN MEDIA on facebook , X , Instagram and Linkedin
