Well, folks, I am once again on the old night shift! I have heard that when you sleep during the day, like taking a nap, it is like getting more sleep than if you slept during the night. For every 15 minuets of sleep during the day, it equals 1 hour of sleep at night.
Since I am on nights again. I try to go to sleep around 9.30am and get up around 3.45-4.00pm. SO on average with the few phone calls during the day, I usually get about 6.5 hours of sleep.
I have noticed that during the day, I dream a tremendous amount more than I do at night. I can remember my dreams and I am also aware that I am dreaming more times than not. That is called Lucid Dreaming.
I will be doing a series of BLOG entries about this as I find more information about it.
Here is some information, it is not what I am truly looking for, but it is a start!
Sleep
Shift workers, on average, get less sleep during the week (6 hours and 30 minutes) compared to regular day workers (6 hours and 54 minutes). (National Sleep Foundation 2000 Sleep in America Poll)
68% of shift workers report sleep problems, compared to 56% of regular day shift workers. (National Sleep Foundation 2000 Sleep in America Poll)
53% of shift workers do not keep a regular sleep schedule, compared to 26% of those who work regular day hours. (National Sleep Foundation 1999 Sleep in America Poll)
Societal pressures to work more and at odd hours-evenings, weekends, the night shift, round-the-clock-have reduced Americans sleep time over the past century by about 20%. ("The Promise of Sleep" by William Dement and Christopher Vaughan, 1999)
45% of adults agree that they will sleep less in order to accomplish more. Shift workers (56%) are more likely to agree they will sleep less in order to get more work done compared to regular day workers (44%). (National Sleep Foundation 2000 Sleep in America Poll)
One-half of the American work force (51%) reports that sleepiness on- the-job interferes with the amount of work they get done. (National Sleep Foundation 2000 Sleep in America Poll)
Television and the Internet are prime contributors to Americans not getting enough sleep, causing 43% of adults to stay up later than they should. (National Sleep Foundation 2000 Sleep in America Poll)
Tell Me What You Think...
Most of my music[s] are of the cinematic nature. If you need something, please contact me so we can partner on a project. I have many varied musical influences that include The KLF, Pink Floyd, Skinny Puppy, and Front 242, as well as Classic Rock. I mix music as much for self-expression and keeping my mind sharp because it’s simply etched into My soul. Much Love!! Contact: DjRenigade@proton.me
