The benefits of a good night’s sleep can’t be overstated. New perspectives, improved moods, and a slew of health benefits have all been linked to sleep hygiene. Now a new study has found powerful evidence that the quality of our sleep can affect the length of our lifespan.
We don’t need science to understand the importance of sleep. We can feel the effect of poor sleep across every aspect of our lives. However, as science progresses, we’re better able to understand why and how sleep is so essential. If you weren’t already a sleep enthusiast, this new study from the University of Rochester provides yet another reason to prioritize sleep.
