I want to start off with don’t worry, I didn’t quit my Uberman sleep schedule. However, as I have no readers right now, no one would be worrying, and anyone who ever reads this will know whether I quit or not already. So, I guess putting that there would be pointless putting that there. There’s a perk of not having readers. I don’t have to create suspense. Haha. Does that make this my whiny journal, or diary? Great….
Anyway, on to personal stuff. So, my mom literally thinks that this sleep system is unhealthy, and I am insane for trying it. I guess I’ll find out if it is crazy, or not, first hand. I had my house to myself yesterday. That’s how I was able to do that insane workout so late at night. Ususally, I am secluded to my room past about 9pm to be nice and let her sleep. Lame, I know, but I might as well stay in good terms with someone who I will be mooching off of for the next couple of years. Anyways, now to the actual sleep and clinical part.
Day Five: To start off, and why I was late with the last two posts. I overslept majorly. I slept from 4 to 9:30. I was really bummed out. The worst part, I was groggy as hell afterwards too. Past then, not much to report. My naps are now officially 20 minutes, because I figured out how I am going to get to sleep. Since, I cannot just jump in bed and fall asleep in 2 minutes, I have decided to do the following: I get in bed 10 minutes before a tv show ends. I turn on my alarm for 30 min at that point in case I fall asleep early. Then, I spend 10 minutes relaxing, gradually getting myself closer and closer to sleep, but not actively trying to go to sleep. As soon as the next show starts, I am already close to sleep. So, getting to sleep is fairly easy. If you are trying the Uberman sleep and are having troubles getting to sleep, then try this. Just remember, that I am not advocating Polyphasic sleeping and you choosing to do so is your own prerogative, and any illness or blah blah is your own responsibility, blah blah blah not mine. Blah blah blah, I’m a blogger, not a scientist, blah blah no suiting me blah blah.
On a side note: I am not getting tired at all by the time for my next nap. So, I am thinking about switching to the Tesla sleep schedule. I might try that this coming week, or so. Idk. (For those of you who do not know what the Tesla schedule is, it is as followed: Only taking 20 minute naps 4 times a day, instead of 6. Cutting sleep time to 1 hr 20 min from 2 hr)
Thanks for reading
