Why We Sleep isn't really a "10 tricks to sleep" book, it's a book explaining the state of sleep research in 2018.

I found the research survey (less sleep => more cancer, more Alzheimer's, worse emotional states; more sleep => dreams for self-therapy, better health outcomes, better memory; your night/day inclination is immutable like your eye color) more effective at motivating me to improve my sleep habits.

What about your differing sleep schedules causes problems? My wife is an early bird and I am a (relative) night owl.

No problems really. Just aware that like many inputs in health, it can almost always be better!
