I thought that day two would be worst then day 1 but it was the opposite. I felt really good during the day. I had a 6am nap and drove to work at 7am. I must admit I was struggling a bit but the journey was safe. I was more alert at work and even did some challenging tasks I thought I wouldn’t be able to do until this adaptation phase will be over. Strangely enough when I went for my noon nap I was not able to fell asleep so I just rested. This was quite a surprise for me but on the other hand I wasn’t that tired in the first place. My next nap was at 6pm at home and driving back from work wasn’t an issue anymore. My journey is about 40min. long each way.
Again I had a lovely relaxing evening and settled for bed at 11pm. Just before I went to sleep I felt a headache coming on, nothing major but it was there. I was wondering if it was to do with my sleep pattern or just dehydration. Three hours later I woke up and it’s still lingering there.
I had some dreams but still can’t remember them very well. I usually recall dreams with no problems but because the sleeping period shrank so much I’m naturally a little bit out of sink. I also noticed for the first time that I had a dream at my 6pm nap too. That’s good news, hopefully soon I will be able to tap into my dreams and even become lucid.
Overall I’d say that my day was better than my night. I really struggled with getting up last night from my core sleep at 2am. Tonight was easier and straight after awakening I decided to do yoga, which helped. My next nap will be at 6am and then I will try again for the noon nap. Maybe I don’t need I anymore? The core sleep and the two naps at 6am and 6pm give me 4hours of sleep in total. Maybe that’s just fine? I know that the polyphasic sleep is about quality not the quantity. However I’m not doing the classic version on this sleeping pattern but I’m close enough so I’m waiting for the benefits…?
