Tintinet, do you take melatonin nightly, or just occasionally? Dose?
Every night for many years. Now usually 3 to 9 mg regular and 6 to 9 mg time release types/night.

Agree- there seems to be a wide variation in individual to individual sleep requirements. I sleep about 5 hours/night, although I likely would sleep 7 or so, perhaps, with a different lifestyle. I have a colleague who sleeps as little as 2 hours a night on a regular basis. He often holds 3 jobs at a time, and exercises in the middle of the night. Another colleague claims she needs at least 8 hours a night of sleep or feels exhausted....
I don't understand how anyone could go off of 2 hours of sleep a night. I know that I am on the opposite side of the spectrum, but that's not much sleep. Hopefully the guy is ok with that as it would be foolish to work 3 jobs and sacrifice one's health.

Is that a polyphasic or a monophasic schedule?Oddly, he seems to thrive on this lifestyle and schedule. An amazing person, seemingly tireless, almost always in terrifically jovial spirits with a biting and ever ready sense of humor. I've never known him to get bothered or upset at anything, and I've worked with him for years.

I heard claims that Yoga Nidra can improve sleep, but I don't know if there were any theory or actual studies confirming that.Yoga Nidra
