This trick helped 96% of WWII US military pilots learn to fall asleep within 2 minutes, even after drinking coffee (via Inc)
, but our being sleepy at the marketing meeting tomorrow is not going to get someone killed.
If it works for combat pilots, it will work for you, regardless of how stressed you are about that meeting tomorrow.Obviously, if you're in your bed, this is a non-issue. But if you're out and about, get into the most comfortable position that's feasible .This is key to the whole thing. You have 43 muscles in your face, and they're a big part of how your body knows whether you're stressed.
Now your arms: Feel them get heavy and relax, starting with your dominant side. If you're right-handed, start with your right bicep and feel it relax. If it's not, tense it fully and then let it go slack. Repeat the process with your hands.Feel your right quad sinking down, getting heavier and heavier. Next your right calf, ankle, and foot. Repeat on the other side.Now that you've fully relaxed your body, all it takes to fall into a deep sleep is to turn your brain off.
In the second sleep-producing fantasy, imagine that you are in a big, black, velvet hammock and everywhere you look is black. You must also hold this picture for 10 seconds.
