Hi all,
Just popping in to ask how you’re sleeping.
Me? NOT WELL.
I’ve been waking up every night at 3 a.m. for a week. Granted, I’m sick, but this is when I most need sleep. Because I’m suffering, I made this little sleep edition, in case you also suffer.
So, here you go. A special How to Live Sleep Edition. Just for you.
If you missed this 3 a.m. letter I wrote for my friend Adam W, and for us, here it is again.
Must have glasses.
When I wake up in the middle of the night and want to listen to a podcast, I first put on my absolute favorite blue-light blocking glasses, so I don’t disrupt my circadian rhythm any more than it’s been.
I don’t think I could live without this meditation. FULL DISCLOSURE: I only do the first one. It’s about 9 minutes long, I think.
Up next: my three favorite podcasts for sleeping (all from one magical human).
I fall asleep to this person’s voice more than anyone else’s. It’s, maybe, become a problem? Often, I find myself just listening to old episodes because of her voice, her voice!! Upgrade and see what I’m fussing about.
