I’ve been thinking for a while about trying a rather radical change.

I suppose you could say I’m from the school of thought of ‘if it isn’t broken, try breaking it’.

It’s the sort of thing most people will just dismiss as another crazy idea, but that’s never stood in my way before,

It is a thing called Polyphasic Sleep.

Whereas most people sleep for 8ish hours a night in one go, that actually isn’t the only way

In fact, sleeping multiple times a day for shorter periods is actually more efficient.

It’s possible to get by on only 2 hours sleep a day as long as you don’t mind sleeping for 20min every 4 hours.

I’ve always wanted to try it… sleep just seems so inefficient.

I broached the topic with S1 about a month ago and we are currently considering if it would be possible for me to do it without getting in the way of too much.

It looks as though the Everyman cycle may actually have a chance of fitting my current daily routine.

It involves a 3 hour core nap followed by three 20min naps.

Now would actually be a good time to give it a go as it would work well with my job (there is no such thing as jetlag)

But I’m rather apprehensive about the thought of actually trying it

Only time will tell if I actually ever end up giving it a go…
