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.

With my slow recovery getting me down a bit, I was in "not give a shit" and "me time" mode, I went to bed at a record late time. Fortunately, I could afford to - Missus is suffering the same slow recovery, and the resulting libido crash means she doesn't require me in the morning, meaning I could just wake up naturally when I wanted. Nevertheless I still fell a little short of the critical minimum 6 hours. Interestingly, the restless second half, which normally kicks in around 03:00 was correspondingly delayed to around 05:00 as a result of my late bedtime.
This was an unexpectedly long dense sleep with most of the restlessness compressed into one hour. However REM and Deep Sleep were unusually low. There was the usual cycling between stages, but never staying long outside Light Sleep.
