When it comes to getting quality shuteye, everyone has their thing, whether it's a pitch-dark room, a favorite pillow or a preferred sleep position. B...

He snores! She hogs the covers! He keeps the TV on all night! She hits snooze all morning long! Sound familiar? No matter how much you love snuggli...

What we hope you have learned this last month, however, is that getting better rest will help make all the other aspects of your life easier and more pleasurable.

This week's discussion is not about how to avoid those momentous changes in our lives but rather how to learn from them, live through them and prepare for them, so that we can maintain healthy, quality rest.

Picture this: you're lying in bed, seconds away from drifting off into a deep sleep, and you are suddenly falling. Your entire body spasms -- jarring you from sleep -- and you're left wondering what just happened.

Growing up, many of us had a bedtime routine -- and some have kept up with one as adults. I, on the other hand, take a different tack, carrying on with my night until sleep more or less punches me in the face.

During my five weeks of what I've dubbed "sleep therapy," I'll wear a silent alarm-clock wristband that also tracks how many hours I sleep, how many times I wake up at night and how long it actually takes to fall asleep.

When LARK announced their 5-week test with AOL employees, I couldn't sign up fast enough. The "un-alarm" clock promises a more natural wake-up and a better quality of sleep.

Our biological clocks are stubborn creatures -- they don't like change. Because of our busy schedules and our constant exposure to light, our body clocks are often caught in a vicious, out-of-sync cycle.

Sleep and I have a dysfunctional relationship. So it's time. Sleep and I need a therapist. Yesterday, the Huffington Post Media Group and LARK launched their new wellness initiative, The Great Wake-Up Program.

If you want sanity in your life, know who you are as a sleeper - a lark or an owl - and simply accept your nocturnal biology - leave the moral-indulgency clause alone.

Owls tend to envy larks, though, especially when they hear about their counterparts who can rise before the sun and get half a day's work done before much of the world eats breakfast.
