Siesta over the years has reported a great amount of successful adaptations, with the majority coming from the non-reduced version. However, the standard version has overall less success, due to the sleep reduction mechanics that play into the adaptation. It is also likely that when adaptation first begins, waking up from the 5h core (rather than 4.5h) could be difficult with '''SWS wakes''' (SWS repartitioning in progress) or '''REM wakes''', due to in the statistically likely REM period. Over time, waking up from the main night core should no longer pose any serious problems, and waking up will become refreshing and invigorating. The daytime core is usually reported to be less challenging to manage, however, for those who are never used to sleeping this long in the daytime hours (or are only accustomed to napping for a short amount of time), it can still be difficult to first deal with the change in sleep habits. Overall, the adaptation progress is mild, if not easier than E1 in some cases. With good time management and a functional alarm setup, most individuals should be able to adapt to the reducing Siesta version.
