I'm naturally inclined to #biphasicsleep with my optimal scheduled being: asleep 10pm-2am, awake 2am-6am asleep 6am-10am. #LateStageCapitalism says fuck that.

As a result, every 4-5 months, for about a month; I end up staying up till 6am, sleeping 2-3 hours then being a dragon the rest of the day.

Right. Slept about 3¾ hours. Felt wide awake. Not watching that ceiling any more, so time for that "medieval sleep" experiment. I am now out of bed, downstairs, and will probably read or stream something for about two hours, then try to sleep some more hours. 🤷🏼‍♂️ #BiphasicSleep #OneAM #WeWillSee

Sleeping twice a day? For some people, that’s not crazy—it’s biphasic sleep.
Our guide covers how this pattern works, when it might benefit you, and when to stick with one long sleep.

The 8-Hour Sleep RULE: Science's Biggest MYTH? You drag yourself to bed, chase those sacred eight hours, and still wake up feeling like a zombie. Sound familiar? For decades, we've been told the 8-Hour Sleep Rule is the unbreakable law of health. But what if it’s the biggest myth we've ever been sold? In this mind-bending episode, we’re putting the world's most famous health rule on trial. We'll unpack the alarming sleep science showing how chronic sleep deprivation—less than six hours a night—can lead to measurable brain damage and serious health risks. We’ll look at what top experts from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine actually say about how much sleep you need. Then, we'll flip the script and reveal the forgotten history of human rest. Discover how our ancestors thrived on biphasic sleep (sleeping in two chunks!) and how the single 8-hour block is a surprisingly recent, man-made invention. And for the grand finale, we investigate the "natural short sleeper" gene—a rare genetic superpower that lets some people feel perfectly rested on just 4-6 hours of sleep. Do you have it? This episode isn't just about sleep tips; it's about decoding your own unique biology. Are you genuinely suffering from sleep restriction, or are you just not built for the modern 8-hour cycle? The answer could change the way you rest forever. If this episode made you look at your alarm clock differently, SHARE it with every tired person you know—they’ll thank you for it! Make sure you SUBSCRIBE for more episodes that debunk the health myths we all live by. We’re dying to know: Are you a solid 8-hour believer, or are you a secret biphasic sleeper? Let us know your theory in the comments!

I am so sick of #biphasicsleep and #chronicfatigue and can not wait to go back on my adhd meds and a regular schedule next week. It is so hard to explain to people that I am only 47 but I sundown at 5 pm like an 80 year old. #dysautonomia

Mediaeval sleep patterns ... #BiphasicSleep

For the best part of 10 years or so I've had a split sleep pattern. The oh so common #4amClub.

My habit became to get up, have cereal, then go back to bed after an hour's #FamilyTree research or […]
