Remember that a sleep cycle lasts an average of 90 minutes. Waking at the end of a cycle usually reduces sleep inertia and helps you start the day more comfortably.

Why can a 23:30 bedtime drift?

It is easy to add a few final tasks and push sleep later without noticing. The challenge is to stop a late evening from consuming the time available for recovery.

A 23:30 bedtime and your daily rhythm

This can fit a regular schedule if your morning allows enough sleep. Choose a realistic alarm and avoid moving bedtime later every day.
