I often wondered about sleep recommendations that focus on the amount of time. I realize that if you try to sleep for seven hours instead of six you are likely to get more sleep. But my problem is that not every person is getting the same quality of sleep in that period of time. If I sleep seven hours I may be getting as much rest as another person who sleeps six or a person who sleeps eight or nine hours.

Sleep is another of those things that is not one-size-fits-all and I guess having a sleep study done is the only way to find out for sure what you need individually.

There are some products out there that attempt to measure sleep quality via leaving your phone on the bed, or wearing a bracelet. I'm not sure of the accuracy, though.

I hope these will get even better (maybe a non-intrusive headpiece that can measure brainwaves?) in the future.

I have the Sleep Bot app and it measures movement and sleeping time and graphs the data. It doesn't give any analysis, however.

Do you have advice for a better analysis of my sleep each night?
