The Seth Method

[Sinera]

Has anyone ever tried to do the 3h-wake-3h-sleep method (on weekends/vacation/days of free time ...)?

I am planning to try it out, I have a loooong year-end vacation (end-)Nov/Dec. :P

The link isn't working on my comp. Is that like a polyphasic sleep method where you sleep in short intervals?
Reminds me of the friars club episode of seinfeld:

dont know the link, but i very often did this "3h-wake-3h-sleep method" (as far as possible in routine/work-life)
this is definitely most effective for me for remembrance! - for what or where ever i was during these 3 hours ;)

how many days in one block did you keep it up?
was it only good for dream recall, or also for other purposes of enhancement, such as astral projection, intuition, creativity, insights, clairvoyance experiences, or whatever?

i never did several days in one block, god no! I guess that would be exhausting. No, and also not more than 2 times per night, meaning to put the clock for ringing in three hours, then after the recall of dream/dom/what put it once more for ringing in 3 hours, so that maximum or minimum i could catch 2 big experiences.

of course there were dream-obe-mix - but always depending on how deep and concentrated was my preparation, meaning here: fokusing/meditating/obe-imagination-exercises. But in first line this awake-methode in my eyes is for the recall, in the sense of *storage* - of whatever appears.

I see, so yours is rather more similar to the famous WBT-method (wake-back-to-bed), which I use too in the night (frequently, although I would not have to put any alarm, cuz it comes naturally since I am a night owl waking and getting up several times during the night anyway... )
It is not the complete "life rhythm" shift proposed in the Seth book. There it is really meant to do it every 3-4 hours alternating sleep/wake pattern, all the time ... through day and night.
Could be really life-changing to do it, I am curious what results it will produce if I try it. :shock:

I slept like this for a while naturally this summer. It was when had I most recall.

On some days I also feel fully rested after as little as four hours of sleep. When I override my body on these days because I can't believe this could be enough I end up oversleeping...
