The Sleepy Reason: Why Our Nights Turn into a Nightmare

Doctors told us how to get rid of terrible dreams and what they are related to.

Residents of Chechnya have 5 hours and 51 minutes of free time per day. The population of Ingushetia, North Ossetia, Dagestan and Karachay-Cherkessia has also been resting for a relatively long time. Residents of these regions have from 5 hours 36 minutes to 4 hours 48 minutes of free time. At the same time, on average, Russians can allocate only 4 hours and 7 minutes to rest. These figures do not include the time spent sleeping.

Residents of the North Caucasus allocate more free time than other Russians due to the peculiarities of their value system, said Lyudmila Ryazantseva, a teacher-psychologist at the Moscow Art and Industrial Institute.
