The media is obsessed with telling us that we need eight hours of sleep. In fact, very few of us actually need eight hours of sleep — and most healthy sleepers don't get eight hours of sleep.

Learning that we can't control how long we sleep and that there is no "one-size-fits-all" sleep duration is a key part of the sleep education component of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I).

Having a better understanding of sleep and knowing exactly what 'normal' sleep really is can help reduce any inappropriate or incorrect sleep thoughts you may have — and this can really help improve your sleep over the long-term.
