Cool tips on sleep hacks:
If you want to sleep less, esp for short periods of time - Modafinil.
I've been up for 2.5 days without a problem on it.
If you want to sleep more/better:
1) Pitch black room.
2) Orange (blue blocking glasses). I use one in the specific SCT
orange color (info found here
http://www.psycheducation.org/depression/LightDark.htm)
Blue inhibits the production of melatonin, which is the key hormone
your body produces when it gets dark out.
This is the pair you want if you have glasses -

This is the pair you want if you dont -

I put them on a few hours before I go to bed.
Also, I have a blue light source to help me wake up in the morning. I
still need to rig up a robotic arm or something to open the window in
the morning instead....
Hope this helps!
