Discussion article for the meetup : LW meetup: Polyphasic sleep and Offline habit training

WHEN: 20 October 2013 02:00:00PM (-0400)

WHERE: Citadel House, 98 Elm St, apt 1, Somerville, MA

Kenneth Chen, visiting from New York, will give a talk on Polyphasic Sleep. This is a technique that lets you sleep fewer hours, while potentially retaining the same level of well-being and cognitive capacity. Basically, you get a time-turner for the rest of your life, if it works for you. Ken switched to polyphasic sleep two months ago, and will share his experiences.

Victoria will run a CFAR-style session on offline habit training. This is an effective method of installing new habits by repeated deliberate practice, as an alternative to using willpower in real time. We will brainstorm new habits, and come up with repeatable procedures to train them.
