Have you ever felt that you slept on time, woke up on time in the morning and still felt like never slept?  Often we experience fatigue and dizziness throughout the day despite having a sound sleep in the night. This fatigue leads to low concentration, weak short term memory and most of the times it affects your skill level in professional field as well as during routine tasks.  You start forgetting things on table or skipping some words what the person sitting next to you is saying since the past five minutes. According to studies conducted over effects of less sleep by researchers across the world and various forerunners healthcare complaints of weak memory and low concentration begin right from the sleeping problems. Medical fraternity suggests that there are five sleep cycles that we complete during eight hours sleep. In initial cycle, our body feels dizziness, in second and third cycle we experience deep sleep. In fourth and fifth cycle we often see dreams as our unconscious mind become super active during those hours and stimulates our sub conscious mind to become active gradually.

Sometimes when we are tired and take a nap in after noon that gives more satisfaction than the nighttime sleep. The reason is that we complete first three cycles of sleep in those hours. According to researchers, psychologists and studies conducted by several forerunners healthcare complaints of headaches and low concentration arise when we don’t complete these three important cycles of sleep.  According to scientists, the human body has been made such that it gets recharged after a few hours of sleep and this is not true that if we won’t have eight hours of sleep, our health will be deteriorated. Various science institutes and psychological institutes agree with the point but simultaneously opine that though hours of sleep don’t matter but still the three cycles of sleep are necessary to be completed.  Supporting this argument, suggest various health institutes, psychologists and independent forerunners healthcare complaints of fatigue after sleep are experienced only because the body clock of every human being is different than others and it depends on our body clock when we feel need to recharge our body the most. Thus our sleeping needs vary according to the degree that in how many hours we complete those important three cycles of sleep.

Though these scientific studies are enough to burst the whim of eight hours mandatory sleep but still we can change our body clock by making our body habitual to recharge in less than eight hours.  In this matter a half hour nap in the afternoon can refresh you up if you could not sleep well due to some party or over work last night.
