A study has found that early death can be caused by regularly sleeping less than six hours each night, according to The Guardian

The study also found that too much sleep could cause health problems, however sleeping for six to eight hours each night is optimal for good health.

Conducted by academics in the UK and Italy, the research found absolute evidence that abnormal sleep patterns can potentially harm health.

People looking to get their full eight hours in order to optimise the health benefits of a good night's sleep should consult a hypnotherapist if they find it hard to get a healthy amount of sleep.

People who slept for under six hours each night were 12% more likely to die prematurely over 25 years than those who slept for six to eight hours.

People who slept more than nine hours each night are also more likely to die early, but that was because oversleeping is a potential indicator of underlying ill health, rather than being a risk.

Professor Francesco Cappuccio, who led the study and is head of the Sleep, Health and Society programme at the University of Warwick, said: "Whilst short sleep may represent a cause of ill health, long sleep is believed to represent more an indicator of ill health... the deterioration of our health status is often accompanied by an extension of our sleeping time.

Insomniacs should consult a hypnotherapy register if they want to find a professional who can cure their inability to sleep. Hypnotherapy in itself is relaxing, which could be enough to help yousleep. It will help you learn to relax - physically and mentally. Some people even see a hypnotherapist for another ailment and find that it helps them sleep better anyway.

Hypnotherapy for insomnia works by re-programming your unconsciousmind so you can relax and slip offto sleep, reaching the goal of a good six to eight hour sleep each night.


Good Evening ;-)
