8 Hours Sleep #3 - The Slow Home Experiment
After a very chilly camping trip we’re back to regular sleep patterns, and in today’s episode Ben and I talk about pre-sleep rituals, whether it’s possible to gain back sleep debt and how our camping experience impacted on our night’s rest.
Ben’s noticed that he and I have very different needs when it comes to pre-sleep rituals so today I talk a little about what I do before bed, as opposed to what he does. HINT: Ben’s process is much simpler and shorter than mine!
In general though I’m really enjoying the re-prioritisation of sleep, though I’m not entirely convinced I need the full 8 hours I’ve been trying for. Plus, I’ve been told I look tired more than any other recent period of time, so I’m not sure it’s even having a positive impact!
I’d love to hear how your experiment is going, so don't forget to tag your social media posts with #slowhomeexperiment and share your experiences.
Enjoy!
