How much rest and relaxation does a person need?

Answer by  bubbyboy (9929)

It depends on the individual. It's like sleep; some people require more than others. Most places of employment give at least two weeks off a year and you work five days a week. That is pretty much the average. It might depend also on the kind of work you do meaning hard physical labor takes longer to rest up.

A person needs rest and relaxation directly proportionate to how much work and/or stress they have to deal with in their daily lives. I think everyone should get a minimum eight hours a night of sleep, and should take at least one vacation a year. I think this would help people not feel overwhelmed.

If you ask me it depends on how much and how hard they work . 8 hours a day is standerd for the body however studys show you mind only need to have two to three hous a night to be ready for action. Age can also play a part in how much rest is needed
