What should I do if I have implemented nearly all the sleep recommendations from Dr. Huberman in the episodes and still wake up after 4 or 5 hours and can't fall back asleep, even with yoga nidra or NSDR?
Is there a difference between me sleeping 7.5 hours and 8 hours if I go to bed around 11:45 PM and wake up at 7:15 AM without an alarm? I've been waking up consistently around 7:15 AM for the past 7 days, and I feel awake. I've read Matthew Walker's book, and he suggests always getting 8 hours of sleep. I'm concerned about whether I really need that much sleep or if 7.5 hours is sufficient, especially since I also follow the QQRT rules and do 10 minutes of meditation and 10 minutes of NSDR every day.
