I took an Advil PM one time and it gave me more stress. Now I sleep with noise cancelling headphones or earbuds and listen to rain, white noise, or very relaxing music. Works 98% of the time. Slowing down on drinking & eating after 6pm also works for me.

🎩 regeneration and sleep are extremely important and to make them better, it is worth taking care of something that is forgotten: darkness and lack of electromagnetic radiation
👔 you should sleep without night lamps and any light, e.g. from the street from the outside, i.e. have a darkened room as much as possible it's best to put on a comfortable blindfold then sleep is very healthy, hormones stabilize significantly
👓 also if you, your loved ones or your partner want to have a light for the night, convince them not to be afraid of the dark and to like the feeling of floating away in a pleasant experience of darkness into the land of dreams
⌚ it is also worth turning off the phone and e.g. wifi and computer from the socket at night

This stupid breathing timing almost got me killed! I need more than 10 seconds of deep breath then maybe I can hold it for 7 sec, not 4 sec!

I'm captivated by the clarity and depth offered by this content. A book with comparable insights marked a significant milestone in my intellectual and personal growth. "Better Sleep Better Life" by William Brook
