Polynap Day 37

I’m going to be annoying and brief in this post as well. Apologies, but I have to run out.
Yesterday I had guests over, and enjoyed myself a lot. However when coming back inside after opening the gate, I slipped on some mud and caused some sort of injury to my knee.
Now, I was getting knee […]

Meditation on ‘purpose’

( Personal Development )

After reading a lot of personal development articles today on Steve Pavlina’s site, I have quite a bit to meditate on.
As it turns out, my purpose and his purpose are more similar than I initially considered.
Other than wanting to do some hands-on, local, community work, there isn’t a lot different.
However after some meditation I might […]

Polynap Day 36

( Polyphasic Sleep )

Today was yet another one that had core sleep involved. 4 hours this time.
I’m working on a number of things that will help me. If any work, I’ll be sure to blog it.
The 20 minute mp3 did help me somewhat, I don’t wake up as groggy as before. My problem is really that I wake […]

Polynap Day 35

( Polyphasic Sleep )

Through some advice on the uberman yahoo group, I’ve decided to drop my naps from 26 minutes to 20 minutes.
I will be updating the mp3 link on the left with the new versions soon, compliments of Eric Mueller on the group.
Despite all this, I still had problems last night, and I’m hoping that it’s something […]

Polynap Day 34

( Polyphasic Sleep )

I struggled again last night, but kept it down to 2 hours of oversleeping. Call it core sleep again
I can’t pinpoint the problem, it might be a cumulative effect of sleeping the wrong way, causing it to get rockier and rockier.
One thing I’m trying to do is organise my priorities and projects, as I’m […]

Polynap Day 33

( Polyphasic Sleep )

I can’t figure out what it is, but I got ‘core sleep’ last night again (ie. I f**-ed up)
It might be the bad diet I’m being subjected to, in which case I’m going to have to put my foot down
Cottage pie and cake is NOT happening. At least not for me.
I’m seriously missing the […]

Polynap Day 32

( Polyphasic Sleep )

Everything went along uneventfully. I did however have some chocolate and cake.
At 3am, I had some trouble forcing myself up, so I chain-napped (generally Bad ™
After waking sleepy again, I reckoned that since I have no more issues switching back and forth between mono- and poly-phasic, I may as well have some proper core […]

Polynap 3 Day 16 (Total=31)

( Polyphasic Sleep )

I had absolutely no problem getting right back into polyphasic sleep last night. I’m really happy about that, as it means I can take a break when the need arises.
This also means I won’t break this season into a new one… it remains ‘run #3′
Lately I’ve been sticking more and more to the Abs diet, […]

Help someone today with a tiny loan!

( Uncategorized )

Reading the blogs this morning, I noticed I missed this : Person-to-person microloans on Something Epic
Now, I’m not normally into giving money to help people, but what’s noteworthy is this isn’t giving. It’s loaning small amounts for a cause that you can choose, and monitor.
I think it’s an awesome idea, and I encourage you all […]

Polynap 3 Day 15 (a month since starting)

( Polyphasic Sleep )

Yesterday my wife spend some time to convince me that I should try KFC again, now that I have this trick with exercise + pure lemon/orange juice and since I’m better adapted to polyphasic sleep.
Oh boy.
I had exactly the same thing as what caused me to crash on my second run (2 pieces, small chips, […]
