Why 5 Hours of Sleep Can Feel Better Than 8 | Mindful Patterns

Most people believe more sleep always means better sleep.
But if you’ve ever slept 8 hours and still felt exhausted, or slept 5 hours and somehow felt clearer, there’s a scientific reason behind it.

This video explains why sleep quality matters more than sleep quantity, and how certain sleep cycles can leave you groggy, unfocused, or emotionally drained — even if you spent more time in bed.

You will learn:
• Why 5 hours can sometimes feel more refreshing than 8
• The role of deep sleep vs. light sleep
• How sleep cycles actually work
• Why waking up at the “wrong time” creates brain fog
• The hidden habits that silently ruin your rest
• And how to build a sleep rhythm that keeps your mind sharp and your mood stable

This is not a recommendation to sleep less — it’s an invitation to understand how your brain restores itself and why timing, rhythm, and sleep depth matter far more than the number of hours.
