New research from the University of Michigan finds that it’s actually more beneficial for couples to sleep apart than together, if a disruption-free eight hours is the goal.

Called a “sleep divorce,” one in three Americans are keeping the sheets to themselves for improved health — and for sake of their relationships, a recent survey by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine found. That correlates directly to the number of U.S. citizens not getting enough sleep, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
