Day9 (nap7)

Sunday, September 20, 2009

9:55 PM

This nap was somewhat restful. I believe it was something similar to what Puredoxyk has described about some her sleeping habits while adapting to uberman. Essentially, I not quite asleep, but my body was technically "asleep." It was similar to having a foot fall asleep due to improper positioning, but the effect was through my entire body. The whole thing started fairly slowly, centering around my legs. Since I had an idea of what might be happening, I tried a couple different things. At first, I tried consciously trying to have it expand down to my feet. That made the effect seem to dissipate from my legs, so I calmed down and let it resettle. Then, I decided to go with the opposite method. I tried to calm my body even further, slowing everything down. After I did that, I tried just "coaxing" the feeling further around my body, which worked wonderfully. This was an interesting twenty-ish minutes that didn't involve any actual sleep, but that was restful nonetheless. Oh, and as for the whole mp3 thing… well, I guess we're just going to wait and see if it works when I actually do fall asleep on one of these next naps. PSA:
