I can’t make up my mind whether polyphasic sleeping is worth the hassle or not. I’m tired, and I feel like I get NOTHING done, but when I look back on it from my monophasic self, I got soooooo much more done then! What a pain. I think I did more house cleaning just because [...]
I’ve hypnotized myself to wake up without my alarm at 4:30am. I can stay awake with no problem. Then I take my first nap. and I don’t wake up! Hypnosis is proving to be the most effective way to make Everyman work for me. I’ve cut back to 3 naps of 15 minutes, except for [...]
Alright ladies. Yes. Keeping the schedule during this time is damned difficult! I backed off because it was making my cramps so much worse. And my sugar craving was off the chart! I double-dosed my magnesium, which cut both problems back to a minimal inconvenience, but I’m still eating and sleeping way too much. Eating [...]

We were doing so well! One full day of the schedule and coming up on our second. But then I decided to take a pill from a box that said allergy in pink. Little did I know that it was benadryl. I had been having problems with my asthma and even on a normal sleep schedule I [...]
I am a Sagittarius. This means that if it is work related, I can do it. I have decided to make polyphasic sleep part of my job description as High Priestess of Pagan House. I have found that this simple mental trick makes it easier for me to stick to the schedule! This morning, I [...]
We’ve been having a rough experiment. Sorry for the gap in these reports but we’ve both gotten a little frazzled. Waking up is the hardest part. If we get up we have no problems. We have the most problem waking up from the core nap. I wonder if uberman isn’t actually easier to adjust to. [...]
After reading about everyman from www.stevepavlina.com/forums/health-fitness/7453-everyman-sleep-schedule.html I think I like his schedule. We need to move everything back two hours though so our schedule will look like this: My schedule: 1:30-4:30 — 10:00-10:20 — 3:00-3:20 — 8:00-8:20 –> 5.5 hrs 5hrs 5hrs 5.5 hrs Share this:ShareFacebookStumbleUponRedditDiggPrintEmail
So we’ve been struggling along with the Everyman schedule. We noticed that we had a huge 7 hour gap between sleep periods. We tinkered with the schedule and we missed a bunch of assigned nap times. and so tonight when we meant to take our 20 minute nap at 9pm we woke up at 2am. [...]
So the dymaxion sleep schedule got modified quite a bit. I got sick, though I don’t think it was from the sleep schedule. There was a really bad flu going around. So any way my wife has decided to join me in my quest to gain more hours in the day. So we have decided [...]
