I was talking with my friend, Elaine, about our mutual problem of being awake until the early morning hours (2 or 3 am) and waking up late (between 10 am and noon). I was trying to stop myself in the evenings but I am most productive and creative at that time. Elaine asked, “why should we fight it?” I guess she feels that after years of trying to get this problem under control, she doesn’t fight it anymore as long as she can sleep without interruption.

She said there are many things to do to improve sleep patterns and that she found that she has to do them all in order to get the benefit.

She went a step further. One day recently, I received an email from her with the subject “My pro-sleep regimen”. She wrote:
