But there are people who do not need 8 hrs. I have never in my life needed 8 hours, past the age of 14. 8 hours makes me groggy. 6 hrs works best for me. But when I only get 5 hours, naps work. Winston Churchill slept a total of only 4 hrs/day, including 20 minute power naps. Other research shows that men over 45 don't need as much sleep. So 8 hrs is not a period that applies to everyone.
