Polyphasic Sleep Day 2e

7.26am, major breakthrough. This is my second clean night and for sure very alert one. For once I didn’t feel sleepy or tired after my 4am nap. I still feel very good and it’s only 30min before my nap. I wonder how I will feel today and of course tonight will be a big test. This night was the first one, where I didn’t do any pottering around the house. I was alert enough for the whole night to read, write and listen to some lectures. Amazing.
I had some doubts earlier as if to carry on this experiment but now I’m fully convinced that I’m on the right path. I will carry on.
I had a nap at 8am and woke up 15-20min later very awake and alert. I was lying in bed wondering how this could be. I let myself fell asleep again but was in control and woke up again after 15min very refreshed. I was astonished. No trace of tiredness, fully awake.
I went to town this morning and came back in time for my midday nap. I allowed myself double nap again, which was a little bit naughty as I developed a slight headache. It’s 2.15pm now and I know it will shift soon. I might go outside to breathe for a while.
By the way I did some yoga at 6am and this time I wasn’t waking up as I was going through it but instead I was full of energy from the start.
The headache disappeared after 4pm nap with no trace. It wasn't really a headache but more like a grogginess.

Hello! I'm also from poly-phasers. Just wanted to know you have some readers now.

Congratulations on the breakthrough. A lot of poly-phasers refer to headaches or 'pressure' to nap, usually when they put off a nap.

Good luck!
