About This Week
The first week is an exploration of your need for sleep. While this may sound simple, finding out your optimal sleeping duration and rhythm requires a bit of experimenting. Most of us do not actually know how much sleep we need, we just sleep when we can. Usually, that’s not nearly enough. For most people, the required amount of sleep falls between 7–9 hours. Before you can master your sleeping habits, you should know a few basic things about sleep.
