I'm impressed Sgt.Pepper! I will be following your progress with interest as I'm hoping to start a similar experiment soon, although nothing quite as extreme. I'm currently an 'owl'- a very late riser by nature, but I can see that it's much more productive to rise early and would love to transform myself into a 'lark', but previous attempts have made me feel so ill that I've never managed to persevere with it beyond a couple of days. Do you think it's better to gradually get up earlier, by making incremental changes until you get to the desired time?

Sgt. Pepper, be sure I will be following it closely as well.

It is very interesting to me to understand different methods and approaches and how they could hellp increase the efficiency of language learning.

Hi Sébastien,

My daughter goes to school this year that requires a commute of slightly over an hour, and she needs to be in class at 8am. She started the school year by getting up at 5:30am on the daily basis; while naturally continue to go to bed at about 11pm, as she used to do before. Very quickly her body was sleep deprived, and she shifted her go-to-bed time until it was comfortable for her. So, it's been established as 8:30pm since September now. (Note: she does not follow this schedule during the weekends, when she stays up for as long as she wants to, yet she seems to easily shift back into her week-day routine come Monday.)

Using this experience I wonder if it could be best to start getting up at a strict time using an alarm clock and allow your body to determine how much sleep it requires, i.e. if you start feeling tired all the time, start going to bed earlier by an hour and see if that fixes things.

Let us know how things progress.

Kind regards,
Varia
