The Truth About Sleep

Sleep is a hot topic in the Mum’s the Word household. Husband is an insomniac and Sausage displays some remarkably zzz-averse traits at times too. I, on the other hand, am like a hibernating bear and am always in search of that extra nap here and there!

That’s why I found this infographic from Ibis so interesting.

I’m definitely a ‘free fall’…! I was surprised to see that so many of us get more than 9 hours a night and even more surprised to see that almonds can help us to get a good nights sleep.

Do any of the results surprise you too? Are you more soldier that starfish? What’s your magic number for hours per night?

    I’m a freefall too, about 6 and a half to 7 is good for me, but on average I get 4-5. I have cyclical insomnia linked to my cycle, i actually have no problem with it, apart from the fact that i am expected to do stuff the following day!

    Broccoli is also supposed to be sleep inducing. I think some of those foods have high magnesium content in common. Anyway happy napping!
