Both oversleeping and undersleeping can harm us in their own ways. Obviously, we can’t all get the perfect amount of sleep every night. But it’s when either one of these turns into a pattern that we can sometimes be in trouble. When we get the right amount of sleep, our bodies can function in an optimum way. Unfortunately, that can mean the reverse is true if we aren’t getting in the ballpark of 8 hours per night. So, what’s the deal with over and under sleeping?

While the amount of sleep people need can vary from person to person, most adults need 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night according to the National Sleep Foundation. Children and teenagers need even more sleep to support their bodies as they grow and develop, and older people may only require 7-8 hours. Getting the sleep you need is a necessary part of leading a healthy, happy life. Sleeping well can boost your immune system, help prevent weight gain, increase productivity, and put you in a better mood.

There are a multitude of reasons why someone might be getting more or less sleep than their body needs. Occasionally, the same reason (something like stress) might cause one person to oversleep and another to undersleep. By oversleeping, we can miss out on a lot of the experiences that make life wonderful. By undersleeping, we lose our ability to enjoy those experiences, even if we are present for them.

Having a great mattress is a necessary step in the right direction when it comes to getting the rest your body and mind craves. Whether it’s oversleeping or undersleeping that you’re experiencing issues with, having a comfortable, long-lasting mattress that helps you meet your sleep goals is going to help. With four different Milton mattresses to choose from, you can find the perfect fit for your life. As you work on removing the barriers to rest that go on during the day, make sure you’ve got a cozy and comfortable place to lay down when night rolls around.

But if you’re anything like us, becoming a part-time detective just to furnish your home isn’t cutting it.
