    68| 321 Method For Better Sleep

    What is up, my friends? Today, I am discussing a common struggle many of us face: sleepless nights. I recently helped a client transform his life by revolutionizing his sleep routine, and the changes were nothing short of astounding. We explored a simple yet powerful approach I call the 3-to-1 method for better sleep. This method focuses on creating effective systems rather than fixating on outcomes, ensuring sustainable results. My client, a chronic night owl, used to hit his pillow at around 2 a.m. only to be rudely awakened at 6 a.m. due to his responsibilities, but with a combination of small tweaks, we managed to shift his schedule. By stopping food intake three hours before bedtime, avoiding liquids two hours prior, and donning blue light blockers an hour before, he found himself peacefully asleep by 10 p.m., waking up refreshed at 6 a.m. These changes weren't just about adding hours to his slumber; they led to an incredible surge in his energy levels, transforming his daily life. I hope that you will join me today as I unpack this game-changing 3-to-1 method. It's not just about getting more sleep; it's about creating a sustainable system that can revolutionize your energy, focus, and overall well-being! With three simple steps, better sleep awaits you!
