Most of us are used to going to bed at about 10 pm and getting up at 7 am. But there are people who break these stereotypes.
In this article we will talk about the know-how of modern civilized society - polyphasic sleep. There are several techniques for polyphasic sleep.
Consider one of the techniques, the polyphasic sleep technique called Siesta. In general, polyphasic sleep is a sleep in several approaches. Most of us are used to sleeping strictly at night, going to bed at ten in the evening and getting up at seven in the morning. After all, from time immemorial it has been so customary that a person got up before dark in order to have time to redo all the affairs and works before sunset, since human vision is absolutely not adapted to darkness.
Until electricity and other benefits of the modern world were invented, it was necessary to obey the conditions of nature and the daylight hours that she controlled. Now that we have everything we need to disobey her rules as we love, can we change our sleep patterns? Everything is in our hands, if we remember that sleep is still necessary.
Our body needs not so much rest as our brain needs to reboot all thought processes and a stable emotional state. If you break sleep into two approaches in the "Siesta" plan, it turns out that the need for sleep is reduced to a night's sleep lasting several hours, and sleep for an hour and a half in the afternoon, you can, for example, sleep after work.
Sleeping after a day's work will relieve the stress accumulated during the day, allow the brain and body to unload. The main night's sleep will allow the brain at the genetic level to perform all regenerative processes, including for the body, will give the main charge of vigor. Many of the great minds of our planet have practiced and continue to practice various polyphasic sleep techniques.
And the separately taken "Siesta" technique, in my opinion, is the easiest to use and is suitable for different types of people, be they "owls" or "larks". If your sleep schedule is disrupted and disturbed, you are irritable and it is difficult for you to concentrate on the course of your thoughts, then try to structure your rest using one of the polyphasic sleep techniques. Try to start with an experiment, and you will be pleasantly surprised from where you will have enough strength and energy for everything.
