How a Bedtime Routine Can Transform Your Sleep
Ray Jason – Hybrid Athlete
Before, I let sleep control me instead of the other way around. I saw it as a waste of time rather than an investment. No matter how long I stayed in bed, I often woke up more tired than when I went to sleep. It showed in my training: my runs felt heavy, recovery took longer, and progress slowed.
The shift happened when I started asking myself why. How could I put in the work every day, yet still wake up drained? That question pushed me to track my nights consistently with Sleep Cycle. I began noticing patterns in my bedtime routines, my wake windows, and the phases of sleep.
After committing to consistency, everything changed. Mornings felt lighter, my days stretched longer, and recovery became faster. Sleep turned from a weakness into one of my strongest tools as an athlete.

Sleeping Out of Sync: What You Need to Know About DSPD
Did you know that between 7-16% of adolescents and young adults may experience Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder (DSPD), a condition where falling asleep and waking up align poorly with societal norms? This is the reality for individuals living with Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder (DSPD)—previously known as Delayed Sleep-Wake Phase Disorder (DSWPD)—a circadian rhythm sleep disorder where sleep-wake cycles are significantly delayed and which affects teenagers more than adults (who have a prevalence estimate of 1-3%). DSPD isn’t just about being a “night owl”; it can affect daily responsibilities, relationships, and overall well-being. By understanding DSPD and its treatments, individuals can regain control over their sleep and improve their quality of life.
