How long have you been participating in the Clock Your Sleep project?:

1-2 weeks

Has your sleep changed since you started tracking it?:

Yes, I'm getting more sleep

How your sleep has changed:

My habit has been that when I wake up in the night ( which I do most nights) to turn to my ipad and read the NY Times or some other on line magazine. Without my ipad in the bedroom, I have been turning over and going back to sleep more quickly.

What did you learn about your sleep patterns once you started tracking them?:

My natural wake up time is about 5:30. I have been getting out of bed when I awake early and not trying to sleep more.

Have you tried to change any of your behavior as a result of this study?:

I have been able to go to sleep earlier. Since I have not been checking my emails in bed, i go to sleep more quickly.
