Once I, being a born lark, really wanted to become an owl.
Owls seemed to me elite and creative. How romantic it is not to sleep at night, to write poetry, to have small talk in the company of the same "creators".
This is how the beau monde spent time in the hostel of the literary institute, where I found myself in a strange and unexpected way for myself, back in 1993
On a time machine in 1993 …
My husband and I went to night guests to our neighbors, where we read poetry, played the guitar, sang our songs.
And closer to midnight, in the most shameful way, I fell asleep on my husband's shoulder.
Many times I tried to stay awake at night and these days, even wrote articles, gave presentations for webinars, just read books.
Only this did not give me anything good, except for a "heavy head" in the morning and a feeling of mortal fatigue.
Roughly the same thing happens with owls, which are forced, breaking themselves, to get up early from day to day, working on a five-day week.
Sometimes the roots of depression are so close to the surface that you don't even need to dig in with therapy.
Such a simple and banal thing as a broken regime can seriously ruin a person's life.
It is important to understand that everyone has their own biological clock.
No matter how much you want to break your internal routine to please your desires, it is categorically impossible to do this.
Today I am glad that I am an early bird. It is much easier for us, larks, because ordinary life is imprisoned, more for us. Just go to bed on time and wake up vigorous and refreshed, have time for school or service.
- What about owls, because they just can't force themselves to sleep before 3 in the morning?
- Especially now, when the world has gone to a universal distance?
- Sooner or later, everything will end and they will have to again be drawn into a difficult schedule for them?
No matter how much you want to hang out at night, it is important to slowly accustom yourself to go to bed, first half an hour earlier, then an hour, an hour and a half, two, slowly accustoming yourself to an acceptable time. So that you could sleep at least 7 hours.
Remote work, freelancing or free schedule - ideal for an owl!
If you cannot find such a job or create your own business / private practice, the most compromise solution for an owl will be to stay awake until midnight, and then, whatever one may say, into a bed, into a bed.
- Be sure to turn off the internet
- Turn off the lights
- Open window
- You can put on a disc with meditation or sounds of nature
- And turn on the "Night Sky", which I already wrote about here.

Various difficulties occur in the life of each person. Sometimes there are "problems" that are solved quickly and easily, and there are such "problems" that are unsettling. And at such moments it seems that somehow everything has dragged on, stagnated like a swamp and it is necessary to do something, but it is not clear what, how and in what sequence.
