Sleep Restriction: Day 4
Only day four and I'm feeling rebellious about this whole program. I keep reminding myself of the stats: sources vary but it's generally reported that 60-75% of people who complete this program become normal sleepers (my expectations are not quite that high) and 85-100% of people reported improvement in their sleep patterns (I haven't read any of the papers themselves, so I don't know how significant the improvement was). And if my numbers are a bit off, blame it on lack of sleep. (That statement might not seem ironically funny to you, but in my current state I think it's a riot!)
Total hours slept: 5.5 out of 6 (Getting closer! Once I'm sleeping for six hours straight, I get to increase my time spent in bed. Interestingly, I couldn't bear the whole yoga/warm bath routine last night and decided to skip it. Will go back to it tonight to see if numbers go up, down or stay the same before drawing conclusions.)
