Dr michael breus sleep expert1/7/2024 And it was kind of funny because when we were dating, I would say, when do you want me to pick you up? And she’s like, oh, I don’t know, eight. Then we move into our night owls, and I renamed them the wolves. And then we’ve got some later bears who would rather get up at like seven,, , things like that. Like our lions who like to get up at like in the morning. And we have some early bears, who have a tendency to want to get up early. Turns out we’ve had almost 2 million people take the quiz. They have a tendency to work with people more. Bears, which is what you are, are actually the best. So we chose lions were the early birds, and it turns out that lions kill before dawn. I’m just saying, nobody wanted to be a porcupine. To be clear, we discovered very early on that nobody wants to be a porcupine. I decided I wanted to use animals that actually had the same chronotype that we were talking about. So I was writing a book about it, The Power of When, and we were all sitting around the table on the marketing side, trying to figure out, what do we call each one of these types of people? Now, what was I going to call it? How was it going to work within everything? Well, that’s not the easiest thing to figure out. And so I added that as a fourth category. And so there’s a genetic form of insomnia that has a lot to do with your circadian rhythms. My contribution to the literature was I actually added a fourth chronotype, which is an insomniac. So you had early birds, you had hummingbirds and you had night owls for a while. Then about 10 years later, they’re like, well, I think there’s also somebody in the middle. Back in the 70s, the research was done there and they discovered there’s early people, there’s late people. If anybody’s ever called you an early bird or a night owl, those are chronotypes. Now you may not have heard of a chronotype before, but you probably actually heard of the concept. So, so the Chrono Quiz actually taps into your genetic sleep schedule. So, Michael, can you talk about the different types of sleepers and what that means to people?Ībsolutely. And so while we were talking, I took it and I’m a bear. Who’s not only knowledgeable, but he’s fun and funny and practical.Īnd one of the tools he has that a whole bunch of people have taken is Chrono Quiz.
