While most people stick to the standard 8-hour sleep recommendation, new neuroscience research says women should aim higher. Why? Because women’s brains are more active and complex, requiring extra downtime to properly recharge, restore skin cells, and regulate hormones.
This explains why many women feel drained even after “enough” sleep. The findings suggest that adding just 30–60 more minutes can significantly boost cognitive function, reduce stress, and even improve skin texture.
💡 If you’ve been waking up tired or moody—your body might be begging for more sleep. The science doesn’t lie.
