I have no issues going to sleep and staying asleep. It's the getting up part that's hard! ;)<br /><br />I used to use Sleep Cycle all the time but I haven't lately because I'm a little weirded out about having my phone right next to me in bed.

Definitely nice for spectators and photos. I sleep pretty soundly (that I know of), but the manfriend seems to struggle with solid sleep, which is a bummer. This morning I woke up 1 minute before our alarm went off for the airport (heading to Chicago). My body seems to know exactly when it needs to be up.

It's hard to combat, as you can't control it as easily as you can control physical fatigue. I have to say though, 7 and a half hours of sleep seems good. I mean, ideally, I would like more, but I think 7.5 is doable. But maybe I am not seeing the big picture, which is all the times you wake up during that period. Does the app take out the middle of the night awake periods? <br /><br />I probably sleep about 6.5-8 hours a night. Right now it's more toward the 6.5 mark. It's not due to sleep issues though; I am having a hard time w time management and so am staying up later and later each night. It's going to catch up to me soon!

My sleeping patterns have been a bit off this summer because of all the traveling, though, but I'm hoping to start getting a nighttime ritual in place that has me in bed by 10pm most nights soon.

I also remember tossing and turning LOTS on nights before long runs during marathon training. I think marathon training is just exhausting period, and then you throw in not sleeping well and it's way worse. I definitely remember feeling like that at the peak of training last spring! Hope you start sleeping better soon.

I aim for 8 hours per night but probably get closer to 7 each night. <br />I really need to start using that app again! I charge my phone on a dock now so that was why I stopped. I should pick up another cord. <br />Hope things at work settle down.

You will be so easy to spot : ) I've used the sleep cycle app a couple of times, it's really cool but I don't love having to keep my phone on my bed. For me, I have trouble falling asleep (rather than staying asleep) when I have a lot going on or I'm stressed out. I downloaded an app that plays relaxing music tones and focus on clearing my head or thinking about something really happy.Carolinehttp://sweetcarolineblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-40046991984633348232012-08-20T07:00:59.939-05:002012-08-20T07:00:59.939-05:00I love to sleep but have been having insomnia late...I love to sleep but have been having insomnia lately, like you.
