After doing Uberman for one day (the naps after the first two were actually quite successful) I got up at 2:30 and remembered how much willpower executing uberman demands. I didn’t feel like it so I returned to sleep, turned off my alarm when it went off, and was half an hour late to class (not a big deal as it was my hippie sound synthesis class and they were just listening to music)
Now I have two assignments due tomorrow… so it looks like I’m doing another all-nighter-uberman thing… Eh, whatever. It’ll all work out. I just took a 3-hour after dinner nap, so time to work now.
After my first uberman night, I was really hyper the entire next day and had a lot of (unfocused) energy. I played in a violin studio masterclass with my teacher and played one of the best performances of Bach I ever have… Being one day sleep deprived is an awful lot like being tipsy. It’s hard to focus and inhibitions are low… Apparently that’s good for public performance though.
