Eric has been taliking about sleep in another thread. I thought it was important enough to merit a thread of its own.
In one of my other lives I teach adults A level psychology.
Many of you will be aware that our sleep seems to be in different stages or phases. (1,2,3,4 & REM)
I seem to remember some presenter on the telly carrying out an experiment in Polyphasic Sleep.
I can't remember how it turned out, nor can any of my students.
(probably fell asleep /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif). (As they do in my class /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif )
There seems to be different variants of this; the most extreme being the Uberman Cycle which consists of six 20 - 25 minute sleeps spread throuought the day.
Obviously this is useful for us. Anybody tried it?
