Too much sleep? are you kidding? There's no such thing these days is there? With today's fast paced lifestyle there's barely enough time to grab enough sleep let alone too much.

However if you sleep eight hours a night or more and still awake less than refreshed, chances are you're getting too much sleep. What you need is not more sleep it's quality sleep.
