How to Adopt a Polyphasic Sleep Schedule

Steps

1. Around 3 AM, sleep for 4 hours until 7 AM. This is your core sleep.
2. If you feel tired at 9 AM, take a 20 minute nap, if not, leave it.
3. Take a nap at 1 PM for 20 minutes.
4. Take a nap at 6 PM for 20 minutes.
5. Repeat every day.
6. The Full Blown polyphasic sleep schedule, which gives you about 6 hours extra time in a day:
7. Take a nap at 8 AM
8. Take a nap at 4 PM
9. Take a nap at midnight
10. Take a nap at 4 AM
11. Repeat every day.

Tips

• With polyphasic sleep, the first few days to weeks your brain will struggle to fit in, but when it does, you will theoretically get the necessary aspects of sleep in the naps, leaving you feeling refreshed.
• Only take step number 2 of the mini schedule if you feel tired.

Warnings

• There is little scientific research into polyphasic sleep and most information about it comes from independent researchers without peer review.
• DO NOT OVERSLEEP, as it will fatigue you for at least the duration of 2 naps.
• Do not skip naps, as it will also tire you.
• Do not ingest caffiene.
• DO NOT attempt this method if you have any type of a diagnosed epileptic disorder. Insufficient rest may cause discomfort/attacks.
• It is not fully known if there are physical or psychological risks involved with this procedure. However, there are books written on the subject that state that it is not unhealthy, if it is done for 6 months, which is as far as the experiments go. If you perform this procedure for more than 6 months, you are moving into uncharted waters.
