Polyphasic Sleep Alarms
Using a standard sleep alarm do not quite cut it for polyphasic sleep. You do not
want to waste time resetting the alarm time six times a day. There are two effective
options; an alarm that allows you to set multiple times, or MP3 alarms.
A small number of multiple alarms are available, intended to be used as reminders
to take medication.
The other option, MP3 alarms, is just as effective. The idea behind these involves
listening to an audio track, perhaps on an MP3 player, home stereo system or car
stereo. An MP3 alarm would typically be a relaxing soundtrack, such as white noise,
bird song, whale song or rainforest sounds. These relaxing sounds will last for
the required time, usually followed by an alarm to wake the listener from their
nap.
Here I have provided two MP3 alarms that may be used freely for non-commercial use
and hosted on other sites provided credit is given. I cannot accept any responsibility
for use of these audio tracks - please ensure you listen to them at appropriate
volume, not too loud, but loud enough to wake you up.
These alarms are twenty minutes long.
