Hi,
Your sleep duration is satisfactory if you awake fresh and if you do not have abnormal daytime sleepiness.
A 6 hours good quality sleep is ideal and do not affect health adversely.
Rather it's giving you more time to enjoy life and for creative work.
The tea spoonful honey is immaterial I mean no harm/no benefit if you are not a diabetic.
In diabetics it can be harmful by raising blood sugar levels acutely.
I think the advise would clear your doubts.
