On: WakeMates are ready

[awakeasleep]

Do you wear the WakeMate all day?

I loved sleep activity graphs in Brain&Behavior bio in college, wish I had heard about this earlier.

Also, have you identified anything that benefits your sleep schedule? The site hints at things like exercise to benefit and alcohol to disrupt, but do you have any anecdotes for me?

And one more: Can you identify different phases of sleep on your nightly graph?

Thanks!

You only wear the wakemate when you're sleeping.

You can identify different phases of sleep (REM, etc.)

And the tagging is indeed the sweetest thing IMO, but you probably need a lot of the data before making a good conclusions. I found that I actually sleep really well when I'm sick or when I'm sleeping on the left side of the bed. Weird stuff like that.

I add tags before I go to bed. Based on these, my sleep score is highest when I go to bed stressed, tired (duh), have a snack in the evening, or sleep in a hotel. It's lowest when I go to bed early, fall asleep hungry, or go to bed with my wife (huh?)
