The Mastery of Sleep

"The reason that I enrolled in Quest is to explore what I can do to increase my sleep pattern with regularity"

Prior to beginning this program, I have an on and off relationship with my sleep. I usually sleep 6 to 61/2 a night and sometimes only four hours. I sleep immediately when I put my head on the pillow in about 2 minutes and sleep uninterrupted for four hours and then my sleep interruption begins in earnest. 
I often say that if I manage my thoughts, I can get back to sleep. I have to admit also that I like waking early and getting up and out with my dog for a very early morning walk at about 5am. 
The reason that I enrolled in Quest is to explore what I can do to increase my sleep pattern with regularity. I would like to sleep for about 8 hours nightly. Last night, I slept for that amount of time but it is more an occasional experience usually because of exhaustion. That is all that I have to share for now.
