Last night the Seattle library informed me that the "Why We Sleep" audiobook was available for me to borrow and listen to. So today I have downloaded it and started listening to it. It's already pretty good, Stephan.
It also is inspiring me to repeat some experiments I have tried in the past.
Rather, one experiment. Other things make me want to do other experiments in parallel. This book makes me want to not drink caffeine for some long period of time (let's say a month). I also want to try to switch to one meal a day again. And lastly to stay awake whenever it is I wake-up first after falling asleep.
The last one is something I did for a few months in 2014 to great success. I ended up waking up at 0400 every morning from Feburary 2014 to June 2014. It was extremely fragile and the schedule died when I went on vacation.
I've had a few instances of doig this in the last year, but interestingly enough, I was actually tired enough several hours into the day to need to go back to bed. I want to see how consistent this tiredness is and also if forcing longer wakefulness between interuptions to my sleep will teach my body to sleep better. There's a lot of lingering after wake-up laying in bed that I do, wherein I feel like I'm falling in and out of sleep, and I just wonder how valuable that part of my routine is.
