with the full moon is sleeping worse. A study published in the Journal of Sleep Research, conducted by researchers at the Department of Social and Preventive Medicine, University of Bern (Switzerland), it appears that the Moon really affect our behavior, especially in our sleep. We slept worse and less with the Full Moon, and the hours of sleep would increase with the New Moon. Scholars enrolled for a sample of their research subjects, some healthy, others with sleep problems already exist. Under the direction of Matthias Egger, have asked their volunteers to score for six weeks (the period when they fell two Full Moons) the duration of their sleep, in addition to what had been calm after each night, as they felt tired or chilled in the morning follows.
result was that the sample slept an average of 6 hours and 49 minutes, extending the period during the weekend. Then compare the hours of sleep with the various phases of the moon is shown that the duration of that varied with the lunar cycles: on average less than the full moon and more with the new moon. In addition also the feeling of fatigue in the morning was associated with the lunar phases: everyone felt more tired after nights of full moon.
Although this shows a possible effect of lunar phases on our sleep, which also affects the researchers have refrained from giving an explanation, certainly need further research, they concluded the same, to validate these initial results. And we expect curious!
