Can You Pay Off Sleep Debt?

Sleep debt is a way to describe how your body feels when you don't get enough sleep.

It's like a pressure that builds up and makes you feel tired.

When you finally get a chance to sleep more, your body tries to make up for it by sleeping longer and deeper for a few nights.

But it's not like a financial debt where you have to pay back every hour you missed.

Your body is smart and can handle short periods of not enough sleep.

Sleep trackers try to measure how much sleep you need and how much you get, but it's not always exact.

The most important thing is to listen to your body and give it the rest it needs.
