8 Consecutive Hours: Recent Phenomenon
No Humans slept 8 hours straight
Until Electricity + Industrial Revolution
3 Types of Sleep Patterns:
✅Monophasic (Modern 8 Hours)
✅Biphasic (Core Sleep and Sleep/Nap)
✅Polyphasic (Core and/or Multiple naps)

BIPHASIC SLEEP - "Segmented"
*Natural Human Sleep Pattern
Pre-Industrial Revolution:
Humans slept 2 X Daily
✅3-4 hours after dusk
✅3-4 hours into dawn
2-3 hours awake at night:
✅Sex
✅Writing
✅Cleaning
✅Bathing

SLEEP CYCLE - Ultradian Rhythm
90-120 Mins = 1 Sleep Cycle
*Approximation
NREM (1-3), REM (4)
1: (10m) Transition, Brain Activity,
2: (40m) Theta Waves, Eyes Stop, Heart Slows
3. (20m) Delta Waves, Deep Relaxation, Slow Breath
4. (20m) Irregular Breath, Dreams, Rapid Eyes

POLYPHASIC SLEEP
✅Captures the "REM" portion of Sleep
✅Core Sleep: Full Sleep Cycles (1.5, 3, 4.5 Hr)
✅Naps: Induce (20m) REM efficiently
You MAY sleep < 8 Hrs Daily
*Complete Sleep Cycles ...
More important than Total Sleep
*Core:
Multiples of Full Sleep Cycles

ADAPTATION
1.Cold-Turkey
2.Gradual Adaptation
-30+ Days
-REM Carrys over between Naps
Example:
Everyman: Monophasic -> E1 -> E2 -> E3
Dual Core: Monophasic -> Segmented -> DC1
Triphasic: Monophasic -> Segmented -> Triphasic
