Is time in bed the same as sleep duration?
No. Keep them separate when you have both. If sleep time is only an estimate, label it as an estimate.
Recovery tracking
A practical sleep tracker that fits real days
Connect bedtime, wake time, restfulness, and morning energy with the shape of the following day.
Kiomora for daily context
Track it. Remember it.
Keep sleep tracker beside the rest of the day that gave it meaning.
Explore KiomoraWhat to record
Start with a small set of fields that can answer a future question. Add detail only after the routine becomes stable.
Useful for people who want a simple sleep diary beside mood, activity, travel, and daily notes.
Bedtime
Write the fact in the same format each time so it stays easy to scan.
Wake time
Add timing or frequency when it changes how you understand the entry.
Restfulness
Use a small repeatable scale or a short label instead of chasing precision.
Morning energy
Keep one plain-language note for the context a number cannot preserve.
A better tracking routine
- 01Keep the rating scale consistent.
- 02Add unusual context such as travel or illness.
- 03Review weekly averages instead of single nights.
How to review the record
Use several nights before drawing a conclusion. Compare timing, duration, restfulness, and next-morning notes, while marking unusual circumstances such as illness, late travel, or disrupted routines.
Completed example
One entry with enough context
In bed at 11:20 p.m., asleep around 11:45 p.m., awake at 7:05 a.m. Estimated sleep: 7 hours 20 minutes. Restfulness: 4 of 5.
Average sleep duration
Add sleep duration across recorded nights and divide by the number of recorded nights.
43.5 recorded hours across 6 nights gives an average of 7 hours 15 minutes. Review the individual nights too.
What should I do with missing days?
Leave the gap visible. Do not silently replace it with zero. Note planned rest when it matters, then calculate rates only across the days that match the question.
