The actual question is, will you be among the 96% of those who can use this military technique to fall asleep in two minutes?
All of us have experienced it, or at least, those of us who experience high levels of anxiety have. As we lay in bed, exhausted beyond belief, our minds raced, making it impossible for us to go asleep. We reached for the sinister blue lights on our phones, thinking to ourselves, “If only there was a way to fall asleep instantly?”
It turns out that there is, albeit given who I am, I’ll probably be in the unfortunate four percent for which it doesn’t work. Nevertheless, perhaps there is still hope for you.
Though science hasn’t yet developed a “on-off” switch for our brains, there is a military sleep technique that may be the next best thing.
Fitness instructor Justin Agustin used his platform to spread the word about this technique, which he claims works for an astounding 96 percent of individuals and can even put you to sleep in under two minutes.
How then does it operate?
The US Army, it seems, created the method primarily for “fighter pilots who need 100% of their reflexes” and for combatants who must be able to nod off in noisy, demanding environments.
You will go to sleep in a matter of minutes if you settle in and pay attention to your breathing.
Once you’ve mastered that area, you may begin to’shut it down’ by gradually relaxing your entire body, beginning with your forehead and facial features.
Make every effort to ensure that nothing is tight and that your arms are relaxed by your sides.
Feel the warmth rising from your head to your fingertips. Then, relax your chest by taking a deep breath; then, relax your thigh, stomach, legs, and feet.
You must visualize the warm feeling traveling from your heart to your toes.
Finally, the difficult portion.
Ideally, you should be free of any tension in order to aid in your own sleep.
Picture yourself in a cozy spot, such as curled up in a velvet hammock or relaxing on a heated boat on a serene lake.
For 10 seconds, tell yourself to “don’t think” if you are experiencing intrusive thoughts about the time you told a waiter to enjoy your dinner and you feel like you’re thinking about something else.
Hopefully, you will be able to fall asleep after this.
Though Agustin’s video may seem too wonderful to be true, comments on it show that there is some validity to the approach.
“I’m a military brat and was taught this,” one commenter said. This was also taught by a seasoned psychology professor I had in college. It is undoubtedly effective.”
Another said: “Pretty sure this is closer to what is called Progressive Muscle Relaxation which was developed by an American physician in 1908.”
And that’s it – pleasant dreams!
Parents Expected To Have One Baby, But Identical Triplets Were Born: What Do They Look Like Now?
For every woman, the time leading up to the birth of a child is unique and emotional, full of love and excitement. On the other hand, worries and concerns around the pregnancy are typical. Nevertheless, after the much-anticipated child is born, these worries pass.
Mothers are occasionally taken aback by unanticipated blessings, as one Iranian woman found out.
She had expected to give birth to a single child during her pregnancy, but to her surprise, Elnaz, Golnaz, and Tanaz, three identical girls, were born. This happy occasion took place in a modest Iranian family twenty years ago.
The parents were ecstatic when their daughters arrived, despite their financial struggles. They gave them the greatest education and upbringing possible, even though women’s chances were restricted by Iranian society conventions.
The girls took the risk of moving to London when they grew older and saw how little opportunities there were in Iran.
They set off on this new voyage, leaving behind their own country in search of a better future, with the encouragement of their father. They followed modeling careers in London, where they soon achieved some success and partnerships with well-known brands.
The sisters are nevertheless optimistic about their chances of success even though they haven’t yet attained international renown.
On social media, the sisters chronicle their stylish lives and trips while keeping a consistent online persona. They embrace their sense of style and frequently coordinate their outfits to keep everything cohesive.
Elnaz, Golnaz, and Tanaz are hopeful about their future pursuits and appreciative of their parents’ unwavering support.
