An article in the New York Times discusses the many merits of the "Paleo lifestyle," including when it comes to sleep. "Ms. Tam, a confessed television addict, decided to cut out all electronic devices after 8 p.m. If she has to check her iPhone, she wears amber goggles to block the blue-spectrum light that she believes interferes with her circadian rhythms. Next, she turned her bedroom into the equivalent of a Lascaux cave, removing all clocks (her two young sons serve as her morning alarm, she said) and installing blackout window inserts. The move paid dividends. 'I used to envy how my young two boys would fall asleep almost immediately after their heads hit the pillow,' Ms. Tam said. 'At dawn, they’d bound out of bed, eager to tell us about the previous night’s dreams. Now, I sleep like them.'”
