Sleeping Behavior Change Project

My goal for the behavior change project was to increase my sleeping duration. I measured my time of sleep in minute(s) and used the data to develope a bar graph that depict my duration of sleep per night in one week. Comparing the original and updated graph, there is a minimal decrease in my sleeping duration. Based on the original graph, my lowest sleep time is 124 minutes and my highest sleep time is 492 minutes. After averaging all the time I slept through seven days, I am averaging around 346 minutes of sleep a night. In the updated graph, my sleep time is slightly lower at 308 minutes a night. As explained in Part C, my intervention is very much contingent on my school and work schedule. Therefore, the sleeping duration recorded shows a sign of negative outcome since there are many things to do and study for near the end of the semester. Part of my intervention was to remind myself that I should get ready to sleep by using the alarm on my phone. During the project, I identified a facilitator that I believe was helpful to support my sleeping habits. Exercising before sleep has still proven to be the most efficient way to help me fall asleep. Expending energy requires me to replenish by sleeping; something I noticed after a long day at work during the weekend. My ability to sleep through noises has not shown any sign of improvement, since it

For example, before the intervention, I did not know that exercising would benefit me so much for my sleep. I realized that after I notice how easy it was to fall asleep after I used so much energy throughout the day at work. Planning ahead works really well too if you’re serious about meeting the deadline and really following it closely. There’s no point in making the weekly planner, without occasionally looking at it and planning ahead before the event, like an
