Yes, I'm getting more sleep

added about an hour to sleep by not getting involved in TV shows that begin at 10. I watch them the next day on demand.

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

I was forcing myself to stay awake to watch some of my favorite TV programs that began at 10. Was waking up 2 or 3 times to go to the bathroom and sometimes could not got back to sleep.

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

Instead of watching TV I have a cup of Bedtime tea about 10 and read until I get sleepy. Tried wearing a sleep mask but this didn't help much.
