Day 31 - Update

Listened to 7hrs I think last night rather than 8hrs.

I therefore am trying to listen more in the day to make up for anything lost.

So I'm playing through my mobile/cell phone and listening via cabled earphones (not wireless).

Have I noticed anything change or improve no not really.

A few days ago I cant recall if I shared it in an update and I'm too lazy to scroll up and check haha so I'm going to share that a few days ago I watched a forwarded video that came up on my social media. It was a video of a girl being beaten to death in the US.

I never saw anything like this nor could I see it to the end so no idea if the video even revealed the end or not but I assume it was genuine but it was part of a news article about this poor teenage girl.

Anyway I had to stop, no way I could watch it and my insides felt awful. I felt nervous, anxious and afraid.

This lasted for about an hour and was the worst time as I was preparing for a mid term exam I had that same day - I passed btw

Anyway around an hr or so later I was back to feeling normal but this inner feeling was so bad that it surprised me.

I then asked Shannon if this meant that I had a lot inside for E2 to clear and he said its a possibility that I indeed do and it means I need to be on E2 longer. Well its only been 31 days so far so I'm with him on that anyway lol

I am playing ocean track btw and hearing it in my ears but the whole apartment is quiet, so I wonder if I start watching tv or a video with these earphones in my ears, then will I need to play the tracks louder, anyone know please?


In other areas of my life the only thing that has changed is my sleep which I cannot attribute to E2 at all, I mean would you?

I downloaded 2 clock apps from the online app store for my phone.

1 alarm clock waves you up in theory by monitoring your sleep cycles and when you come to the light sleep stage (which occurs multiple times a night) it will alarm near to my set time to wake and thus wake me up.

I used this for 2 days and woke up at 6-ish am which was my goal.

The first time, I had slept at 2am so only 4hours sleep, the second time which was waking up this morning I slept and had about 7hours sleep.

I used the 2nd clock app last night. This is an app that asks you to take a picture so I took it of my bathroom. Then when it rings it will continue to ring until you wake up and take the same picture thus getting you out of bed and stopping its alarm.

Today as I woke up at well 6.20am I didn't need to 2nd alarm, my fail safe, to ring so I turned it off.

I havent actually woken at 6am but 6.15-6.20am which is good going.

I however stay sat up in bed - waking up (I do maybe go bathroom for a quick toilet break), reading emails and being cozy while my cold apartment stays cold, for 1.5hrs then i get out of bed.

So my hope is that I wake up then get out of bed and stay out of bed.

I thus have a theory, that its best I wake up at 5.30am and therefore by 6am I'm out of bed - so this needs to be the new goal.

If until next tuesday I can maintain this early wake up schedule then I am going to be very happy indeed.

thanks
