Your Sleep Is A Feral Cat
Your Sleep Is A Feral Cat
Your sleep style is FERAL CAT! Like a feral cat, your sleep is trying hard to get by, but it isn't getting much help. It isn't appreciated, and although it tries and tries to do better, it just keeps getting scraps from the garbage dump of your life. Be nice to that kitty! It deserves a chance to thrive and do it's best. And you really would be happier without it yowling all the time. Have a regular sleep schedule, going to bed at the same time every night (as much as possible), get up at about the same time every day (even on weekends), and don't treat sleep like a luxury. Sleep is as important to you as exercise, eating right, and yes, even more important than work. Give sleep a chance!

You are really doing what it takes to make sure your body gets the sleep it needs. Well done! You are creating a beautiful butterfly for you to soar during the day, while you get plenty of sleep, on a regular schedule, at night. You clearly understand the importance of sleep as a key part of your life. You are giving sleep a chance! Hooray!
Your Sleep Is A Circus Tent
Your Sleep Is A Circus Tent
You are a busy person! But, for you to be healthy, it really does need to have some limits. Sleep needs a regular schedule. The bedroom should be inviting, and used for sleep (and yes, for sex-everyone needs to have some fun!). But put down the ipad, the phone, the remote, turn off the tv, put the pets outside the bedroom, turn off the radio, and make your bedroom a peaceful, calming refuge. Give sleep a chance!
Your Sleep Is A Growing Bear
Your Sleep Is A Growing Bear
You may have an issue with snoring. A simple home-remedy to try is to tie a tennis ball in the middle of a T-shirt back (or use a hairtie) which will keep you from rolling onto your back while sleeping. You may want to be evaluated for sleep apnea, which is a serious sleep disorder associated with heart disease and other problems.
Your Sleep Is A Dessicated Desert Plant
Your Sleep Is A Dessicated Desert Plant
You are sleep deprived, and try to catch up on your sleep but it just doesn't even seem possible. Try going to bed at the same time every night, and get up at more or less the same time every day. Don't "binge and deprive" yourself of sleep. Try to avoid napping so that you can fall asleep at night.
