Day 398 Listening Training by Using BBC World Service

 I wrote down some sentence I struggled to shadow smoothly.

  • I could see the alpha waves becoming more spaced out and sort of less frequent as I was sort of drifting off.
  • I'd suddenly jolt back awake and the alpha waves would be back.
  • When you're sort of dreaming and your eyes are darting all over the place, and we  sort of cycle through those stages about once every 90 minutes.
  • We don't sort of necessarily go through them one after the other.
  • Do we know what happens to the body then?
  • Does it go into certain stage?
  • It might be that you end up sort of getting yanked out of sleep.
  • As well as getting enough sleep, it's great if you can wake up at the right point in your sleep cycle.
  • You know, when your alarm goes off and it feels really jarring.
  • That can be avoided if you van sync up with your sleep cycle.
  • You can do that by getting up at roughly the same time every day.
  • Try and take those things somewhere else and save the bedroom.
  • My caffeinated pods were sat where my decaf pods should be.
