How do you know how long it takes you to fall asleep ?
I try to base my alarm on 1.5 hour sleep cycles (4.5, 6 or 7.5 hours) but sometimes I'm lying awake in bed for two hours, so I don't know how to set the alarm.
somehow even if i fall asleep at 11pm, the 6am slot does not move (force of the habit?) - so maybe something to check?
