As a therapist I know how fundamental sleep is to wellbeing, and that modern life makes getting it harder. This blog is a record of my own efforts to get a good night's sleep.

A satisfactory sleep in which I was unusually aware of cycling between the stages. Also unusual was that the calmest part of the sleep was the final third, usually the most restless.
I've noticed how unique every sleep pattern is, but this one is on the more typical side - a first half where most of the deep sleep happens, a restless hour in the middle, then a second half where most of the REM sleep happens. A satisfactory well-balanced sleep achieving the critical minimum.
Though substandard, this sleep wasn't as disastrous as I imagined, getting within an hour of the critical minimum. Going to bed late was my fault, although the long restless period wasn't in my conscious control. It's a case of shrug shoulders and move on.
