Sleep and rest are not the same thing but they are related.
When doctors say that 7-9hours of sleep is recommended for adults, you will need to adjust for your personal circumstance. Most of this sleep should happen at night and you may need to supplement with naps.
You probably need more sleep and naps if
- You’re ill
- You have young children or other family members needing late night, early morning or overnight care
- Your work or lifestyle is physically demanding
- You are stressed
- You are sleep deprived for any other reason
Are you getting enough sleep for you?
