BIPHASIC SLEEP THE KERNEL OF THE WISE LIFESTYLE OF NESTORS! ON ORGANISATION, COGNITION, COMMUNICATION AND WELLBEING

Humanity had up to the industrial revolution an entirely different life style, a way of organisation of day and night, of sleeping and waking up. It is important to dare to question our present customs, habits, practices and organizations. To confront these with past practices, with habits of other cultures, even of other animals. All these can be heuristic sources for elaborating and building way of lives, to get more cognitive and communicative efficiency in view of more wellbeing and happier developments and better changes for survival in the fast changing environment… The options on Biphasic sleep are challenging examples. For elderly people, for instance, the biphasic sleep organization perhaps can help to better realize and stimulate their cognitive and communicative skills and challenges… Moreover, the preindustrial way of life based on Biphasic sleep, can also be more useful and generate a society with more wellbeing, also in the future in view of the expected 28 hour (or even less) working week in the modern industry and business week planning.

Abstract

Humanity had up to the industrial revolution an entirely different life style, a way of organisation of day and night, of sleeping and waking up. It is important to dare to question our present customs, habits, practices and organizations. To confront these with past practices, with habits of other cultures, even of other animals. All these can be heuristic sources for elaborating and building way of lives, to get more cognitive and communicative efficiency in view of more wellbeing and happier developments and better changes for survival in the fast changing environment… The options on Biphasic sleep are challenging examples. For elderly people, for instance, the biphasic sleep organization perhaps can help to better realize and stimulate their cognitive and communicative skills and challenges… Moreover, the preindustrial way of life based on Biphasic sleep, can also be more useful and generate a society with more wellbeing, also in the future in view of the expected 28 hour (or even less) working week in the modern industry and business week planning.
