"No small art is it to sleep: it is necessary for that purpose to keep awake all day" Thus spoke Zarathustra - Nietzsche

Messing up your sleep should be avoided at al costs. I've been through stressful exam phases where I turned my clock upside down and studied till late in the night. Then, insomnia kicks in when I try to fix my clock, I become sleep deprived, that leads to lack of motivation and I get nothing accomplished the couple following days, may even lead to depression. That only lasts a couple of days but it's one of the worst feelings ever. On the other hand, on the days that I wake up early, exercise and go out in the nature, I almost want to skip dinner to go to sleep.

I always hear ppl talking about how youtube unsubscribes them from channels, but I have never had that happen until now. They unsubbed me from your channel and I KNOW I didn't do it. They don't want me to have high thumos sleep!

Thank you for this glorious advice TGO. Your efforts at informing young men on improving their lives is magnificent and is greatly needed to correct our civilization's course.

Pre-bedtime mindfulness meditation goes a long way too

Dear TGO, have you ever heard of David Goggins? If you haven't I can highly suggest looking into his story or reading his book. He's a high Thumos man.

Do you plan on having more kids in the future?

I can really relate to this. I remember being on a survival exercise in the military (in Sweden) when my instructor explained how sleep was 10 times more important than food in a real survival situation. During the week of survival i could really confirm that. 48 hours without food was rough for sure but 48 hours without sleep was terrible.

I’ve been looking forward to this video, everything I hoped it would be.

[redpillgermany]

The tape is extremely important for some people.

[SynKumetri]

Glad to hear the Glorious Lion talking about the importance of good sleep, nutrition and also that we both use the same Twilight filter app.
Best wishes in all your endeavours and hope to hear you delve more into biohacking, abdominal breathing, meditative practices, and more.

I find it really hard to get my self to go to bed early :(

[Vikingskog]

Good video, i'll add two things that has in my experience also been important:
1. Diet/eating. Dont eat a big meal shortly before sleeping and also avoid eating anything that is heavier to digest or that you suspect you have a mild negative reaction to. This last part is especially important if you have some sort of digestion/stomache issue like bad gut flora which is very common these days. If you eat something that is a lot heavier to digest right before sleeping then your digestive system will work hard at it during the night, it can severly ruin the quality of your sleep.

2. This one is pretty obvious but do some excercise everyday if you can, like a 30 min walk at least. You might be tired mentally from work or whatever, but its the physical tiredness that helps you sleep well in my experience. Also dont excercise right before sleeping, try to do it at least 1-2 hours before.

[johnthevagrant]

This was very helpful. Matthew Walkers is also a great source for information on sleep

[axllil]

It annoyes me that even after working out, doing farm work, studying for several hours, writing essays, when I am absolutely exhausted I still have trouble sleeping.
