Researchers from Pennsylvania State University recently released a study that helps people determine their sleep type and what it means for their overall health.
According To A New Study, There Are 4 Different Sleep Types — What Does Your Sleep Type Say About You?
More than half of the study participants fell into the “suboptimal” napper or insomnia-sleeper categories. Throughout the 10-year study period, participants’ sleep type largely stayed the same. Sleep “gives the brain a chance to rejuvenate,” Lee said. “And so it helps wash away ... a lot of kind of the things that your brain needs to clear out.”
People who catch up on sleep on the weekends or their days off should think about their rest habits, too. “Try to avoid anything in bed that is not sleeping or intimacy,” Lee said. “That would include things such as doing work, being on your phone, watching TV, reading, because the more time you spend in bed not sleeping, the more your body gets used to that ... and that’s one of the associations that we want to really try to remove.”
