It used to be that waking up on the wrong side of the bed meant you felt a little tired or groggy due to a bad night's sleep. These days research shows us that simply getting 7 to 8 hours of sleep per night isn't enough. What's important is getting 7 to 8 hours of good sleep. For example, studies on the health benefits of nourishing sleep show us that people getting less than 7 hours of good sleep per night are 3 times more likely to get sick from exposure to a cold virus.
Good sleep - it's just what the doctor ordered!
