Nowadays you would think I could sleep as late as I want however I am up now usually by 3 AM and unable to fall back asleep so I am still trying to get to bed by 9:30 PM but not having much success in sleeping more than 4 hours a night. Hoping to resolve this issue soon. I would love to be able to go to sleep at 11PM and stay asleep till 7AM. That feels much more civilized to me and in an ideal world that would be my preference.
It's amazing how much better one feels after a good night's sleep!

Missy - I've been having some trouble sleeping lately too. I've been trying some meditations to help me fall back asleep. I'm not sure that I've found the ideal meditations for me, but I have found some that are better than others. I was trying to find some on youtube, but was disturbed by a lot of the odd background music. I will look up the link for one that I found on my phone, which I keep by my bed, and can just play very quietly next to me. http://www.meditationoasis.com/podcast/listen-to-podcast/ I don't even have the app . . . I just go to the website on my phone and click on a meditation. Hope this helps.
b/t 1:30-2:30 am, but some days I'll be up by 6:30 am when the stock market opens then I'll take a 2 hr nap from 9-11 am before I go to lunch at noon with friends. A nice long sleep for me would be from 2:00 am-11:00 am..texaskj|1407470391|3728338 said:Waaaaaaaiiit a minute, what about you DF?
