   Daily Rhythm Test

      Our internal body clock governs our daily or circadian rhythm - telling
      us when to wake up and when to feel sleepy. Circadian comes from the
      Latin circa, meaning about and dies, meaning day.

      This test will produce a chart showing your natural sleeping and waking
      pattern over a 24 hour period. If you're having problems sleeping it
      could be your natural body clock is at odds with your routine.

   1) Do you consider yourself a morning person or an evening person?

     (_) Evening
     (_) More evening than morning
     (_) Cant tell
     (_) More morning than evening
     (_) Morning
   2) At what time of day do you feel at your best?

     (_) 5am - 9am
     (_) 9am - 11am
     (_) 11am - 5pm
     (_) 5pm - 10pm
     (_) 10pm - 1am
   3) Considering only your own "feeling best" rhythm, if you were
   entirely free to plan your day - at what time would you go to bed?

     (_) 8pm - 9pm
     (_) 9pm - 10.15pm
     (_) 10.15pm - 12.30am
     (_) 12.30am - 1.45am
     (_) 1.45am - 3am
   4) Considering only your own "feeling best" rhythm, if you were
   entirely free to plan your day - at what time would you get up?

     (_) 6.30am - 7.45am
