The more we start to understand about our sleep, the more we realize how vital it is to our physical and mental health. In some cases, it can even prematurely age our brains and shorten our lives. But getting a good night's sleep isn't easy if your bed isn't up to the job, and that's why choosing a big, comfy one is always a good idea. Don't just take our word for it, though. A recent CNET survey found that six in 10 US adults would consider investing money to get better sleep, with 46% leaning

In brief: Remember during and immediately after the lockdowns, when so many companies promised a new era of work-life balance and flexibility? According to new research from Microsoft, the opposite is now true, with most people working an "infinite workday" that lasts more than 12 hours and bleeds into weekends.

It is no secret how valuable sleep is to our wellbeing. Not getting enough sleep can affect our mental health, prematurely age our brains and even affect how long we live.

The saying goes that a dog is a man’s best friend, but an archaeological excavation in Norway proves that women care about their four-legged companions just as much as men do, even 1,100 years ago. Archaeologists from the Arctic University Museum of Norway have revealed a 10th-century Viking boat grave on the Norwegian island of Senja.
