According to Kacper Postawski, a sleep science researcher and author of Powerful Sleep, there are 3 shocking myths about sleep that you don't know
about - which are depriving you of your life energy.
MYTH #1 ) “If you sleep longer, you'll be more awake and have more energy in your life”
TRUTH: Sleeping Longer ROBS You of Energy and Damages your Sleeping System.
There are several reasons why sleeping longer damages your sleep system. What most people don't know is that there is a very important element of your inner sleep clock which is prior wakefulness. When you sleep longer you limit your prior wakefulness which puts stress on a number of other factors such us your melatonin hormone levels, your exposure to sunlight, and your body temperature rhythm.
Getting longer sleep or "catching up on sleep" only weakens your sleep system, which in turn can even lower your immune system. The common belief that trying to sleep less makes you tired and low on energy is simply because people don't understand how the bio-temperature rhythms work.
