Three women on what they learned from tracking their sleep on Fitbit.
I’ll be real, I came into this experiment with a firmly anti-sleep-tracking stance. For years, I’ve had to get up for work around 4am, which has resulted in being chronically sleep-deprived. It’s only recently, after getting a new job, that I’ve had a more ‘normal’ schedule. Knowing that, historically, I’ve not slept as much as I probably needed to, sleep-tracking has always felt like a way to get too obsessive about rest or to goal-ify something that shouldn’t be so rigorously measured.
As a result, my total sleep time isn’t as much as I thought I was getting. Previously, I would have patted myself on the back for getting to bed at 10pm and then questioned why I was still tired in the morning. Now, I realise that I’m rarely getting the eight hours I was counting – it’s usually closer to six. I dread to think how little sleep I was getting on my 4am-wake-up days.
Armed with this data, I’ve started making changes – and I can actually see that they’re having a positive effect, which boosts my motivation to keep it up. I started playingas a test and noticed far fewer waking moments. I aimed to get to bed earlier than I thought I needed and took note of the Fitbit recommendations to do a soothing pre-sleep routine .
I don’t, however, have great sleep habits. Most people struggle to drift off after a stressful day at work but I find it almost impossible to wake up in the morning – something I’ve put down to the fact that I split my working week between London and Scotland.
