22% globally and up to 41% in Australia, they chose to “live with” weak sleep.
45% do not follow their sleep, lacking valuable prospects that could improve the quality of sleep.

Almost half (47%) of the job of the job questioned believes that the health of their sleep is not a priority for their employers, presenting an opportunity for employers’ initiatives to encourage healthy sleep habits.

Blues bed: Relationships with impact on sleep

Survey answers suggest that sleep can play an important role in the health of our relationships:

18% of couples are constantly opting for a “sleep divorce”, choosing to sleep because of snoring and restlessness.
Among those who sleep separately, 31% reported improved relationships, while 30% think they have worsened.
Separation of sleep also affects intimacy – 28% say that their sexual life has improved, while 22% report the opposite.

Sleep quality is not equal between sexes

Women experience a weaker sleep quality than men:

Women report less quality nights than men (3.83 nights vs. 4.13 nights) per week.
38% of women strive to fall asleep, compared to 29% of men.
Hormonal changes-especially menopause are a significant factor, but often overlooked that affect sleep, 44% of menopause women who report asleep at least three times a week, compared to 33% of women who are not menopause.

Take measures on sleep health

“The weak chronic sleep affects our relationships, the productivity at work and increases the risk of cognitive decline, mood disorders and serious health conditions, such as heart failure and stroke,” added Dr. Nunez. The risks are even higher. That is why it is important to talk to a doctor about dealing with disturbed sleep. “
