Optimize Your Sleep

Your 4 Steps

4 Steps to Running on 4 Hours 1. High Fat Snack

But it Doesn’t Mean do it All the Time
Have a fatty snack 25 minutes before you
plan to go to bed. No sugar, no carbs, just
something like almonds, or even some
cheese, nothing else. This allows the brain
to function during sleep and thusly lets it
recover.

2. Drink a LOT of Water

If you know it’s going to be a late night,
drink copious amounts of water. Over
hydrating will trigger hormones in your
body to get a deeper sleep. The catch?
You’ll wake up to pee, but it will likely be
when it’s time to get up anyway.

The steps in this quick guide
are designed to help you
achieve the optimal amount
rest in the least amount of
time. As a businessperson, you
generally don’t have time to
get more sleep, even with
effective time management
skills. Heck, in my opinion, if
you’re healthy there isn’t
much reason why consistently
running on 4-6 hours of sleep
isn’t just fine. But these
secrets will help you get
through those nights where
you’re burning the midnight
oil and you are confident that
even under the best of
circumstances you’ll only get
4-5 hours.

3. Vitamin D3
The part of your brain that regulates
sleep has a large number of D3 Receptors.
Without it, our sleep patterns are
disrupted. Take 5,000iu regularly, but
10,000iu 2 hours before bed if you know
that it’s going to be a short night’s sleep.
4. Low to No Carb Breakfast
Your response to a blood sugar rise and
fall is going to be THAT much worse if
you’re sleep deprived. Start your
morning with some coffee and a high fat
breakfast like eggs and some healthy
sausage BUT NO CARBS UNTIL AT
LEAST 4-6 HOURS AFTER THIS MEAL
(Super Important)!
